Research on epistemic emotions has often focused on how students transition between affective states (e.g., affect dynamics). More recently, studies have examined the properties of cases where a student remains in the same affective state over time, finding that the duration of a student's affective state is important for multiple learning…

With the increasing reliance on digital platforms, mobile game-based phone applications provide avenues to enhance learning of complex chemical concepts. This research developed a mobile game-based phone application designed to simulate the qualitative inorganic analysis of cations, determine its effects on learning, and examine students' insights…

In cultural relic restoration learning, developing both knowledge proficiency and self-efficacy is essential for academic success and professional competency. However, conventional learning methods often lack interactive elements that support cognitive engagement and skill acquisition. To address this limitation, this study introduced a…

Children with dyscalculia show less self-efficacy and more anxiety while engaging in mathematical tasks. In addition to difficulties in basic mathematical skills, such non-cognitive factors negatively impact their mathematics achievement. In contrast, game elements have been found to increase performance, motivation, and task engagement.…

Differentiated instruction (DI) has shown positive effects on the success of language learning as compared to traditional teaching. Examining teachers' beliefs pertaining to differentiation is important owing to the fact that teachers' beliefs shape their pedagogical practices. Therefore, this study is aimed at exploring English teachers' beliefs…

In response to a decline in the numeracy skills and confidence of first-year biomedical science undergraduate students, a series of quizzes was developed to encourage students to practice their numeracy skills with topic-related problems. The quizzes were created using existing tools in the online learning platform Blackboard (Blackboard, Inc.).…

Prior research has emphasized that two-tier tests are an effective approach to guiding students through game tasks; furthermore, self-efficacy, which is potentially related to students' surroundings and academic performance, has a positive impact on students' cognitive outcomes in games. This implies the significance of conducting a study to probe…

Virtual-reality business simulation games (VRBSGs) have garnered attention in management education. However, investigating the design of efficient VRBSGs from an integrated perspective of social cognitive, self-determination, and cognitive load theories is crucial but under-addressed. Therefore, this study developed a VRBSG learning system to…

Academic integrity constitutes a cornerstone of higher education, epitomising values such as honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility. However, breaches in academic integrity persist among nursing students. Current responses to breaches predominantly adopt reactive and punitive measures, lacking proactive initiatives that cultivate…

This study investigated the relationship between attention, relevance, confidence and satisfaction within the ARCS motivational framework in self-regulated digital game-based vocabulary learning among Saudi EFL learners. Employing structural equation modelling, this study examined how these motivational factors interact and influence learner…
