Teemu H. Laine; Woohyun Lee – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
The metaverse is a network of interoperable and persistent 3-D virtual worlds where users can coexist and interact through mechanisms, such as gamification, nonfungible tokens, and cryptocurrencies. Although the metaverse is a theoretical construct today, many collaborative virtual reality (CVR) applications have emerged as potential components of…

Sin, Zackary P. T.; Jia, Ye; Wu, Astin C. H.; Zhao, Isaac Dan; Li, Richard Chen; Ng, Peter H. F.; Huang, Xiao; Baciu, George; Cao, Jiannong; Li, Qing – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
Metaverse, an alternative universe for play, work, and interaction, has become a captivating topic for academia and industry in recent times. This opens the question on what a metaverse for education, or edu-metaverse, should look like. It is believed that this metaverse for learning should be grounded by a pedagogical theory. Particularly, we…

Nan Zhang; Hongkai Wang; Tianqi Huang; Xinran Zhang; Hongen Liao – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Trunk anatomy education is critical in the training of the surgeon. Most trunk anatomy education systems use a personal or synthetic anatomical model. It remains difficult to obtain appropriate population anatomy information and create individualized anatomy customization based on a quantity of diverse data. Furthermore, the naked-eye virtual…

Han, Peng-Fei; Zhao, Feng-Kui; Zhao, Gang – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2022
Mechanical assembly courses are widely set up for mechanical and vehicle engineering majors. Teaching in these classes is traditionally presented in the form of 2-D lectures, which are ineffective for students to understand complex 3-D information. The study presented in this article aimed to investigate whether augmented reality (AR) could…

Ruiz, Jenny; Serral Asensio, Estefania; Snoeck, Monique – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
The user interface (UI) is a key component of an interactive software application; therefore, it is important to provide software developers with basic UI design skills. However, teaching UI design is challenging, even at a basic level, and there is little teaching support. In this article, we investigate the benefits of the feedback-enriched…

Paravati, Gianluca; Lamberti, Fabrizio; Gatteschi, Valentina; Demartini, Claudio; Montuschi, Paolo – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2017
Computer-supported assessment tools can bring significant benefits to both students and teachers. When integrated in traditional education workflows, they may help to reduce the time required to perform the evaluation and consolidate the perception of fairness of the overall process. When integrated within on-line intelligent tutoring systems,…

Rodriguez-Gil, Luis; García-Zubia, Javier; Orduña, Pablo; López-de-Ipiña, Diego – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2017
Online laboratories have traditionally been split between virtual labs, with simulated components; and remote labs, with real components. The former tend to provide less realism but to be easily scalable and less expensive to maintain, while the latter are fully real but tend to require a higher maintenance effort and be more error-prone. This…

Muñoz-Cristóbal, Juan A.; Jorrín-Abellán, Iván M.; Asensio-Pérez, Juan I.; Martínez-Monés, Alejandra; Prieto, Luis P.; Dimitriadis, Yannis – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2015
During the last decades, educational contexts have transformed into complex technological and social ecologies, with mobile devices expanding the scope of education beyond the traditional classroom, creating so-called Ubiquitous Learning Environments (ULEs). However, these new technological opportunities entail an additional burden for teachers,…

Weal, M. J.; Michaelides, D. T.; Page, K.; De Roure, D. C.; Monger, E.; Gobbi, M. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2012
Skills-based learning environments are used to promote the acquisition of practical skills as well as decision making, communication, and problem solving. It is important to provide feedback to the students from these sessions and observations of their actions may inform the assessment process and help researchers to better understand the learning…

Yang, Mau-Tsuen; Liao, Wan-Che – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2014
The physical-virtual immersion and real-time interaction play an essential role in cultural and language learning. Augmented reality (AR) technology can be used to seamlessly merge virtual objects with real-world images to realize immersions. Additionally, computer vision (CV) technology can recognize free-hand gestures from live images to enable…
