Over the last decades, digital technologies (DTs) have become ubiquitous in mathematics education. Still, their integration into classroom teaching and learning varies enormously. In this narrative overview, we focus on the different purposes for which DTs are used in mathematics education in order to study how the effectiveness of DTs depends on…

Electronic research notebooks (ERNs) are used under a variety of names: electronic laboratory notebooks, digital laboratory notebooks, electronic field notebooks, and electronic engineering logbooks, to name a few. ERNs are common in industry and increasingly common in academia. This scoping review explores the literature describing the various…

Previous research on technology implementation in rural schools has focused on two types of challenges: (1) access to internet-ready technological devices and the infrastructure to operate them and (2) teacher attitudes and beliefs about technologies. This research drew on posthumanism to explore tensions that emerged as technological devices were…

Introduction: Over 1 billion people worldwide have disabilities, necessitating their inclusion in health systems and workplaces. Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing accessibility and digital inclusion for these individuals, improving everyday tasks and enabling autonomous mobility. AI can be applied to visually impaired, reduced…

In our increasingly digitized society, where technology use is ubiquitous, nearly all activities require access to and proficiency using digital tools. Proficient internet use may lead to the pursuit of higher education, launching a fulfilling career, or part of habits and healthy lifestyles where education is lifelong and life-wide. This study…

This study aims to investigate potential means to bridge the digital divide between person with and without disabilities in Malaysia. A conceptual framework with one endogenous variable (digital divide) and two exogenous variables (government initiatives and assistive technology) was developed. The study applied quantitative survey research…

Digital inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities is not commensurate with those without disabilities. Societal, political, financial, individual and interpersonal barriers help explain this disparity. Caregivers can act as both support and gatekeeper to internet access and use by adults with intellectual disabilities. This study…

Virtual Reality (VR) technology in learning activities assists in visualizing abstract phenomena of physics concepts. This technology supports the delivery of effective and meaningful learning experiences. The main objectives of this study, therefore, are to analyze the level of students' readiness to use VR technology in higher education, and to…

Technology is a powerful tool to enhance learning and it has the potential to remove barriers to education for all children. When supporting countries' use of technology for education (Tech4Ed), the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) maintains a focus on equity and bridging the digital divide. This factsheet provides an overview of the…

This research employs the spherical fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (SFAHP) to prioritize key factors shaping the higher education quality in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam within the context of increasing digitalization. Through a structured hierarchy encompassing criteria such as accessibility of digital resources, adaptability and innovation,…

The study investigates pre-service teachers' self-efficacy beliefs towards digital education. Using a simple random sampling technique, a total of 120 pre-service teachers were selected as participants. Data were collected through a self-efficacy questionnaire specifically designed to assess various factors influencing digital education readiness.…

Purpose: The objective of this research was to test the effect of information and communication technology (ICT) resources, library facilities, teacher lecturing skills and physical classroom environment on student satisfaction and university image. This paper also sought to contribute to the existing body of knowledge by confirming the role of…

Aim/Purpose: Despite increasing access to technology, persistent disparities in digital competence and self-efficacy remain among marginalized pre-service teachers, often exacerbated by systemic inequities and the digital divide. This research explores the gap in knowledge of the lived experiences of marginalized pre-service teachers' (PST) prior…

This quantitative study aims to determine if there is a relationship between schools that had one-to-one technology programs pre-pandemic, and achievement test score outcomes. The study focused on the twenty-three school districts that had one-to-one programs pre-pandemic in Mississippi, and compared their performance with test scores from…

This conceptual paper draws on a wide range of research and policy literature, providing a contemporary view of issues, factors and practices that affect education for digitally excluded populations. Concern for how education for digitally excluded populations can be supported is focal to this paper, with different sections offering key related…
