Contribution: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in engineering higher education is becoming increasingly important nowadays. This article contributes to the Scholarship of Integration by providing a comprehensive review of current research on AI integration in engineering higher education and presenting a pilot AI introductory module…

Game-based learning (GBL) is an effective learning tool for medical and dental undergraduates in enhancing knowledge and skills as well as gaining student engagement and motivation. Educational games can create a social constructivist learning environment, where learners can construct their knowledge through interactions with their peers and…

The role of self-regulated learning in language learning has been widely acknowledged, and there is a growing number of studies on technology-enhanced self-regulated language learning (SRLL). This systematic review aims to provide a holistic picture of existing studies in this area by identifying the characteristics of published studies, the…

Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL) is an innovative approach to language learning that utilizes mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, to support language learning. MALL has become increasingly popular in recent years due to the widespread availability of mobile devices and the flexibility they offer for language learning. The aim…

Many dynamic approaches have emerged due to computer technology in facilitating language learning skills. Podcasting is one such novel tool being exploited by teachers to deliver educational content and to encourage learning outside the classroom. Research on podcasting pedagogy suggests that podcasting greatly helps learners develop various…

This article previews the emergence of "homo virtualis." Drawing on data from seven research studies, peer-reviewed published research articles, and selected excerpts of 30 months of field notes taken in Second Life [SL], the article examines virtual learning environments and embodiment through the lens of interactions of avatars with…

Discusses the use of artificial intelligence and expert system shells to enhance the learning process of graduate or undergraduate statistics students. A student exercise is described using STAT-EXPERT, an expert system designed to help students select the appropriate statistical analysis technique. (25 references) (LRW)

Traces the evolution of introductory computing courses for undergraduates based on the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) guidelines published in "Curriculum 78." Changes in the curricula are described, including the role of discrete mathematics and theory; and the need for a broader model for designing introductory courses is…

Reviews articles appearing in this issue, which focus on the influence of computers on teaching design to undergraduates, and discusses involvement of Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), EDUCOM, the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE), and the FIPSE Technology Study Group (FTSG) in work that led to these papers. (LRW)

Discussion of educational and research advantages of using computer-based experimental simulations for the study of negotiation and dispute resolution in business schools focuses on two studies of undergraduates that used simulation exercises. The influence of time pressure on mediation is examined, and differences in student behavior are…

Discusses the importance of student attitudes as a factor in the successful implementation of computer-assisted instruction at the college level. A study that examined student attitudes and achievement when working with computer-assisted instruction in a personalized system of instruction is described. (36 references) (CLB)

Discussion of learner control in computer-assisted instructional simulations focuses on an experiment conducted with undergraduate students that compared three different treatments for instructional control in an aircraft simulator. Topics addressed include performance on immediate and delayed posttests; practice; student attitudes; effects of…

Describes a study of Australian undergraduates that investigated the nature of learning experiences and quality of learning achieved when students organized information into a HyperCard program. Differences between the learning strategies of using HyperCard and traditional class tutorial presentations are discussed, and student attitudes are…

Part 1 of this two-part document reviews efforts to develop computer-based case management simulations for use in rehabilitation education. It examines both single-case management simulations which concentrate on clinical problem-solving skills required to serve a single client and multiple-case management simulations which focus on skills…

Describes ways in which computers are used to help undergraduates learn through designing, i.e., various creative activities. Highlights include projects sponsored by the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) and the FIPSE Technology Study Group (FTSG), the importance of design in curriculum, and problems with teaching and…
