The research objective behind this article was to analyse the concerns of school students in obligatory primary and secondary education in…

Introduction: The main objective of this study was to validate six educational applications developed to train the cognitive precursors associated with mathematics learning in early childhood education students. Method: The mathematical performance of 193 preschool students aged 57 to 79 months (M=63.3, SD=3.7) from various schools was assessed…

This scoping review aimed to identify and evaluate apps designed to screen or monitor speech, language, and communication (SLC) development in young children. Early identification and intervention are crucial for children with SLC difficulties, but traditional assessments can be time-consuming and lack ecological validity. Technological…

Aim/Purpose: The aim of the study is to test whether the perception of self-regulated learning during text reading in online teacher education is improved by using a digital tool for the use of metacognitive strategies for planning, monitoring, and self-assessment. Background: The use of self-regulated learning is important in reading skills, and…

Augmented Reality (AR) is now being used in education across various subjects. The number of AR applications has increased with the popularity of smartphones. In this study, we explore the use of AR-based apps for teaching astronomy in the last four years of secondary education in Spain. The study includes an experimental group and a control group…

Mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) is a fast-developing field that is constantly growing and evolving in education. There is a lack of publications focusing on implementation studies of MALL as a means to enhance second language/foreign language (L2) reading comprehension. Building on Burston's (2013). Mobile-Assisted Language Learning: a…

Service-Learning (SL) is a powerful methodology to acquire competences and values in Higher Education. However, there is still no widespread use in Information and Computer Science (ICS) degrees where most of the subjects are focused on the development of theoretical and practical contents purely related to technical competences. In this paper, we…

These past few years society has experienced a worldwide pandemic that has affected every aspect of our lives. COVID-19 has forced institutions to integrate remote learning tools and techniques, even when most lack of resources to implement online methodologies. Education has been one of the areas greatly affected by these measures, making it…

Language learners around the world are increasingly using applications (apps) to learn second/foreign languages (L2). However, research on the effectiveness of these apps for developing general language proficiency, particularly compared to classroom-based instruction, is still limited. This study examined the L2-English proficiency and lexical…

The main objective of this research is to determine the perception of teachers about the elements that increases the educational effectiveness of gamified apps in primary education. A methodology based on an importance-performance analysis was developed, using a structural equations model to calculate the degree of importance of each variable. The…

This study aims to analyse the extent to which gamification tools and multimedia resources (i.e. Cuadernia, Kahoot, Quizizz, and Socrative) can serve in learning strategies for education, achievement, participation and motivation during student teacher training in the subject of "Musical Education and its Didactics" and within the…
