Nowadays, modern technologies provide a variety of opportunities in many fields, including education. In this context, it is crucial to comprehend the possibility of developing new ways of teaching electroacoustic music using such technology tools. For this purpose, the researchers of the present study elaborated and implemented a study program…

This study is intended to analyze the impact of online and offline mixed teaching methods for university students due to COVID-19. The study was conducted when the government relaxed the restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 period. So, the questionnaire was created using Google Forms and then 550 Questionnaires were distributed via email. On…

Android platform-based educational software for visually impaired students (VIS) are widely available, but very few of them are in Bangla. Due to the lack of low-cost Bangla Braille-based technologies, VIS depends on the traditional slate and stylus to learn Braille. This study proposes a Braille-based educational software, Bangla Braille Learning…

Even though existing studies have shown the positive effects of social network sites (SNSs) on learning behaviors and outcomes, how SNS can cause learners to develop negative perceptions about their learning activities is still understudied. Here we report a one-of-a-kind study that examines the negative impact of privacy concern on students'…

Recently, Virtual Reality (VR) has developed rapidly. Some studies propose that VR has a great deal of potential as an instructional media for learning, while other studies indicate that VR may be ineffective or even negatively influence learners' learning experience. Few studies provide reference to educators or teachers based on empirical data.…

This scoping review summarises the literature on resilience interventions that use interactive technology. Resilience refers to a person's mental ability to adaptively deal with challenging situations and is a key skill for dealing with challenges in life. Types of interactive technology used in resilience interventions included serious video…

The present study sought to elicit insights into pedagogical practices pertaining to the integration of digital games into teaching and learning. A review of peer-reviewed journal articles published in English over the past 10 years uncovered common pedagogical themes that were categorized into a pre-game, game, and post-game taxonomy. The…

Rising political polarization and the spread of disinformation have highlighted the need to re-assess and broaden existing approaches to civic education. Though video games have been presented as tools that could capitalize on youth's interest-driven engagement with technology to support situated modes of civic learning, their actual contributions…

In this paper log data on e-book usage is used as part of a learning analytics approach to generate user models which describe university students' characteristics in multiple dimensions. E-book usage is logged and analysed to extract information on how users use e-books for academic purposes. Two cases contributing to user modelling are…

This paper proposes a framework for designing digital environments and illustrates this framework using the example of a video game (Alchemist). The increasing importance of digital environments for educational systems (e.g. for teaching and assessing twenty-first century skills) makes it necessary to have standards for their quality. These…

This article reports the findings of a study on cooperative factors that predict higher education students' satisfaction with using collaborative online tools. Although there is evidence of relationships between certain factors of teamwork and satisfaction in traditional groups that are guided by their teacher, little is known about what happens…

Embodied Cognition approaches suggest that movements influence the understanding of abstract concepts such as time. It follows that moving the arms as watch hands should boost children's learning to read the clock. In a school setting, we compared three learning conditions: an embodied (movement) condition, an interactive App condition, and a text…

Well-designed educational Augmented Reality (AR) experiences support collaboration, transferability to the real world, situated, and experiential learning. Nevertheless, envisioning engaging yet effective learning and teaching experiences is a challenge. Most teachers are not technologically ready to create AR experiences and rely upon closed…

Recent years have witnessed an increasing emphasis on integrating computational thinking into school curriculums. This study deals with suggesting a course model including data collection tools for evaluating teachers' pedagogical content knowledge in teaching computational thinking via teaching robot programming. Taking the advantages of virtual…

Development and evaluation of a teaching-learning activity in 4th year Forensic Physics course of Degree in Criminology was based on different combinations of a virtual laboratory and a research laboratory as teaching spaces. Students explored in detail the components and functioning of an electron microscope using both an online suite of…
