Entrepreneurship education is growing because of innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI)-based business simulation and gamification. However, there are different responses to gamification-based learning. This study aims to identify the factors that influence learning in gamified business simulation using the self-determination…

Immersive technologies are assumed to have many benefits for learning due to their potential positive impact on optimizing learners' cognitive load and fostering intrinsic motivation. However, despite promising results, the findings regarding the actual impact on learning remain inconclusive, raising questions about the determinants of efficacy.…

Background: Virtual laboratories are used to supplement or even replace physical laboratories in engineering education. Although these virtual laboratories allow students to learn foundational experimental skills, they do not provide the learners with the chance to develop higher-order thinking skills (HOTS). Computational thinking (CT) is an…

This paper provides a new experiment based on augmented reality technology in the context of Palestinian higher education. The primary goal is to investigate the effectiveness of AR-based learning on motivation and reflective thinking as crucial indicators of student learning. The research is based on a combined quantitative-qualitative…

Socially shared regulated learning (SSRL) plays a crucial role in enhancing collaborative learning processes. This study explores the association between medical residents' team action, SSRL and heart rate changes using BioWorld, a technology-rich learning environment (TRE) designed to support medical practitioners' diagnostic reasoning skills as…

Background: Goal orientations (GO) are influential achievement goals in predicting achievement motivation and effectiveness. However, few studies have paid specific attention to investigating the effects of GO on learning achievement in the area of business management education. Objectives: This study developed a business simulation game system…

This study based on the Hedonic Motivation System Adoption Model (HMSAM), the Expectation Confirmation Model (ECM), and Task Technology Fit (TTF), explores the factors influencing users' continuance intention in gamified learning within metaversity. A total of 286 valid questionnaires were collected using random sampling. The data were analyzed…

The adoption of virtual learning environments (VLEs) in education has grown significantly due to their potential to enhance learning. Effective learning in VLEs depends on managing cognitive load and sustaining motivation, particularly for complex tasks like developing teachers' professional vision -- the ability to notice and interpret classroom…

The effective implementation of Collaborative Inquiry-based Learning (CIL) activities hinges upon the learners receiving ample support and timely feedback. Without explicit guidance from educators within the interaction design, inquiry processes, and task steps, the efficacy of learning outcomes is challenging to ensure. Virtual teachers have the…

Augmented reality (AR) has been regarded as a useful tool in writing education, with the goal of enhancing students' learning. However, questions still exist about the consistency of student motivation and their writing performance when participating in educational activities driven by AR. This study focused on AR-based writing courses, employing…

Contemporary technological advancements offer new possibilities for enhancing user creativity. We aimed to explore how technology can boost student creativity to meet the twenty-first century's demand for innovative talent. Based on the 4P model of creativity (person, process, product, and press) and constructivist theory, a virtual reality (VR)…

This novel qualitative study explores the transformative potential of Virtual Reality (VR) in augmenting Computer-Based Training (CBT) for energy industry contractors. By immersing participants in four VR simulations, the study delves into the heart of how learners perceive hazardous work environments and emergency procedures in VR. The findings…

The escape room game is an example of digital game-based learning that has become a popular learning tool in recent years. However, not enough is known about enthusiasm for and promising reports of the use of escape rooms in education. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of escape room game-based civics education on eighth…

Discussion has become a crucial method of interactive learning in online collaborative environments. This study aims to identify the impact of different task motivation compositions and learning scaffolding on attention, learning performance, and behavioral patterns. The 90 Chinese undergraduate and graduate students (M[subscript age]=20.38,…

Virtual Reality has proven to be highly promising within the field of learning. Most VR learning methods do not effectively implement pedagogical models or adapt to the individual's learning style. This research aims to bridge this gap by integrating Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs), Flow Theory and Gamification within an educational Virtual Reality…
