Most research on anonymity in computer-supported collaborative learning, which has reported both positive and negative outcomes, largely focuses on a fully anonymous login mode. In this context, further research is necessary to finetune the approach to the 'login mode' to optimise the potential benefits while mitigating the drawbacks. This study…

In this practitioner-focused article, the authors present a mathematical writing activity for preservice elementary school teachers. The products of this activity, referred to as "journals," are detailed, representation-rich explanations of problems solved in small groups. These journals were originally exchanged across institutions in a…

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being utilized to develop tools and services in various domains, including education. However, due to the nature of the training data, these models are susceptible to inherent social or cognitive biases, which can influence their outputs. Furthermore, their handling of critical topics, such as privacy…

This study investigated the impact of online peer and teacher feedback on students' self-regulated learning and analysed students' perceptions of online peer feedback on self-regulated learning development.

This study sets out to examine the predictors of success in Public Speaking (PS) within digital contexts, referred to as digital oratory (DO), by evaluating the impact of an English Digital Oratory (EDO) course on high school students' PS competence. Specifically, it investigates how English as a Foreign Language (EFL) proficiency, prior PS…

Motivation has been studied in many contexts and is acknowledged as one of the most significant aspects of language instruction. To increase student motivation and engagement, instructional materials, methods, and techniques are crucial to the language learning and teaching process. The current study examined how the creation of digital…

Argumentation is fundamental and essential in mathematics education. It promotes deep mathematical understanding and helps students connect abstract ideas logically. However, teachers and students in the traditional teacher-centered classroom face difficulties teaching and learning math argumentation. In this article, a cooperative…

Social learning analytics (SLA) tools are designed to visually demonstrate online discussions with a goal to foster student engagement. However, empirical studies indicate controversial results of the effect of SLA tools on student engagement. This design-based research designs a student-facing SLA tool to demonstrate discussions from three…

The application of digital game-based learning (GBL) methods has lately received more attention in higher education (HE). An extensive body of previous investigations has recognised the potential of instructional games to advance the learning of appropriate work life skills. However, there seems to be a lack of understanding in the current…

Nationwide, postsecondary institutions are seeing the need and searching for ways to prepare their students for life in an increasingly complex and often polarized society. Since its development in the 1980s, intergroup dialogue (IGD) has become a nationally prominent social justice pedagogy that brings together small, diverse groups of college…

In the last couple of decades, the increased use of technology in the education sector has led to smartphone use becoming more prevalent in supporting students' learning. Apart from applications (apps) specifically designed for language educational purposes, such as Duolingo, there are also instant messaging apps that are not specifically designed…

This study investigated student interaction patterns and their co-regulation practices in text-based and multimodal computer mediated collaborative (CMC) writing. To this end, 30 EFL (English as foreign language) participants' online collaborative writing performances were analyzed. The analysis included conversation analysis on the transcription…
