In digitalized learning processes, learning analytics (LA) can help teachers make pedagogically sound decisions and support pupils' self-regulated learning (SRL). However, research on the role of the pedagogical dimensions of learning design (LD) in influencing the possibilities of LA remains scarce. Primary school presents a unique LA context…

Radioanatomy, short for radiographic anatomy, is the study of anatomy through medical imaging. Its early-stage introduction into medical curricula has been recommended in the literature. As with many other medical courses, it has seen a shift toward blended learning, including assessment on learning management systems such as Moodle, one advantage…

The perception and manipulation of spatial information are essential for mathematical learning, and research highlights gender differences in spatial abilities. The present study contributes to the question of whether these differences are evident at earlier ages and how they interact with task complexity in mental rotation. We developed the…

This descriptive report explores the implementation of the use of plastinated specimens in a Doctor of Physical Therapy human anatomy curriculum as an alternative to traditional body donor dissection. Plastination, a preservation technique developed in the 1970s, creates durable and flexible specimens that retain detailed anatomical features. The…

This exploratory study investigates anatomy faculty perceptions on the incorporation of ultrasound (US) in anatomy education, focusing on spatial understanding (SU) and cognitive load (CL) implications. An online survey was administered anonymously to members of the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists. The survey gathered…

Fostering students' dialogic reflection in the classroom entails promoting diverse perspectives and collaborative aspects of reflective thinking. However, few studies have developed visualisation tools to create a collaborative environment that fosters dialogic reflection, especially for young learners. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy…

The integration of immersive technologies, such as 360-degree virtual reality (VR) in education presents a promising avenue for enhancing teaching and learning. However, educators often face challenges due to limited technical expertise and resource constraints. This study examined the usability and readiness of educators in adopting the 360 VR…

A critical skill that biochemistry students must develop is the interpretation of molecular images, ranging from macromolecular representations to the chemical structures of the building blocks that comprise them. Such analysis requires biomolecular visual literacy, which is not often explicitly taught, and can be challenging for instructors to…

Effective learning in chemistry education requires students to understand visual representations across multiple conceptual levels. Essential to this process are visuospatial skills which enable students to interpret and manipulate these representations effectively. These abilities allow students to construct mental models that support problem…

In response to a large backlog of demand for data analytics expertise, universities are adding analytics courses and/or programs. Data visualization and exploration are among the pillars of the analytics curriculum and should be included in analytics programs. This article presents the philosophy, structure, and content of a data visualization and…

Immersive Virtual Reality (iVR) is increasingly being used in education for its ability to recreate vivid, realistic environments that enhance engagement and motivation. In history education, iVR is often considered when fostering emotional connection and empathy. However, its potential to support critical historical thinking, such as analysing…

This study aimed to design, develop, and validate the RSiSTEM framework, a robotics-based simulation learning model intended to foster students' problem-solving and systems thinking competencies within STEM education. The research followed a two-phase developmental design. In Phase 1, the framework was constructed through a systematic synthesis of…

Mixed reality (MR) offers a way to visualize and manipulate complex digital objects in three dimensions, which is particularly beneficial for human anatomy. However, implementing MR effectively requires a deep understanding of its effects on cognitive processes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate cognitive markers of students' engagement…

The geometric design of roofs is a key element in the design and construction of buildings. Roofs play an important role in protecting buildings from the weather and providing esthetic appearance and functionality. Theoretically, to design a roof over a given plan means to construct the projections of the intersections of the roof planes. All this…

While memorization has been criticized as outdated, recent studies have suggested that memorized poetry constitutes a vital repository which enhances the quality of individuals' lives. The pedagogical potential of learning poetry by heart, however, has hardly been explored in contemporary settings. This qualitative study focuses on the experiences…
