Systematic reviews are vital for guiding practice, research and policy, although they are often slow and labour-intensive. Large language models (LLMs) could speed up and automate systematic reviews, but their performance in such tasks has yet to be comprehensively evaluated against humans, and no study has tested Generative Pre-Trained…

Video annotation tools can improve assessments by enabling visualization, repeated reviews, and structured feedback, thereby promoting deeper learning. This approach is particularly relevant in health professional education, where acquiring psychomotor skills is essential. No recent reviews have focused specifically on video annotation tools for…

While student satisfaction with online courses is generally high, these courses are not without problems. Perusall is a learning tool that aims to solve some of these problems and increase student satisfaction. The current study sought to determine whether the application of Perusall would improve students' feelings of connectedness, their reading…

This article focuses on the methodological experiences that emerged from a study investigating how teachers valued their daily encounters with children in early childhood education. Early childhood teachers often balance the demands of documentation with time spent with children, so have little time to reflect on their practice. Furthermore,…

The COVID-19 pandemic affected the capacity to conduct linguistic fieldwork in person. For many fieldworkers, this meant they needed to adapt, and do so urgently. This paper discusses a language documentation workflow based entirely on the online conferencing software Zoom, in which a linguist, external to the community, establishes a new project…

The purpose of this hermeneutic phenomenological study was to explore preservice teachers' experiences with video observations at Central University. The theory guiding this study was Bandura's self-efficacy theory as it provides insights into the internal and external factors that affect an individual's perception of their capabilities.…

The use of social annotation tools in higher education has attracted the attention of researchers with many studies having looked at student perceptions and attitudes to them. This paper investigates students' activity and perceptions of the social annotation tool Diigo along with the extent to which they correlate with their approaches to…

Nursing care is the most critical element in nursing services, which aims to improve the patient's health status. Ineffective and inefficient care documentation can impact the quality of nursing services. However, the increasingly advanced development of technology provides freedom for the health world to improve the quality of patient-centered…

Many undergraduate and graduate courses have been recently converted to fully remote offerings due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Even within the remote structure, courses vary in their frequency of synchronous and asynchronous meetings. Fostering collaboration through students' idea-sharing and supporting their learning is especially challenging in…

This article presents LingView (https://github.com/BrownCLPS/LingView), a web interface for viewing FLEx and ELAN files, optionally time-synced with corresponding audio or video files. While FLEx and ELAN are useful tools for many linguists, the resulting annotated files are often inaccessible to the general public. Here, we describe a data…

Past research has yielded ample knowledge regarding the design of analytics-based tools for teachers and has found beneficial effects of several tools on teaching and learning. Yet there is relatively little knowledge regarding the design of tools that support teachers when a class of students uses AI-based tutoring software for self-paced…

Podcasts are a unique media that have been used in Indigenous and endangered language communities in the form of Indigenous radio podcasts, instructional websites, or tools to aid classroom instruction. A podcast called Rituals of Kanauji speakers was created in Kanauji, a low-resource Indian language variety. Using this case study in Kanauji, I…

Mobile apps have the potential to support collaborative fieldwork even where web connectivity is unreliable or unavailable. To explore this potential, we developed portable network infrastructure and custom-made field tool apps. We deployed this solution in remote communities in the far north of Australia, in connection with co-located cooperative…

While conducting research for my doctoral thesis entitled "Learners With Special Educational Needs Reflecting on Their First Year at University," I explored the historical background, recent developments, and issues of concern for students with special educational needs and disabilities studying at university in Singapore. Documentary…

This article reviews several software programs designed to conduct item response theory (IRT) scale linking and equating. The programs reviewed include IRTEQ, STUIRT, and POLYEQUATE. Features and functionalities of each program are discussed and an example analysis using the common-item non-equivalent groups design in IRTEQ is provided.
