This research aims to develop an adaptive digital project-based learning model enhanced with artificial intelligence technology to facilitate the creation of digital content. A systematic approach was employed, divided into three phases: 1) study and synthesis of conceptual frameworks to understand the elements and relationships of related…

There is a widespread agenda of improving teaching and learning in higher education by engaging students with educational technology. Based on a large-scale literature review, the article presents 61 specific, research-based recommendations for realising the engagement potential of eight types of educational technologies in higher education. These…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly being integrated into educational settings, with Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPAs) playing a significant role. However, the psychological impact of these AI assistants on fostering active learning behaviors needs to be better understood. This research study addresses this gap by proposing a…

Chemistry is an essential subject for most science-based undergraduate courses in universities; as such, it is a basic requirement for secondary school students aspiring to study science-related courses in universities. However, the subject has historically been linked to high failure rates and underperformance of students in secondary school…

Following the launch of the generative AI Web application, Ask.SMILE, designed to evaluate the cognitive levels of questions asked, 2559 educators generated 25,973 question-feedback sets over a three-month period, with an average of over 10 questions per participant. Analyses revealed a significant improvement in question quality from initial…

As spaces, physical or virtual, are change agents and can have an impact on learning, the power of built pedagogy is being acknowledged in Higher Education. Emphasis is being placed on the design of Active Learning Spaces (ALS) and its impact on pedagogy, by fostering active learning. However, the field is fragmented, due to a profusion of terms…

Experiential learning through active exploration can play a vital role in fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills in engineering education. However, the complex nature of the construction industry in the 21st century cannot afford an education through trial and error in a real environment. This case study aims to promote…

This study aimed to describe students' ability to arrange proof of abstract algebra problems (Subgroups) after receiving Information Technology (IT)-assisted scaffolding materials. To achieve this objective, we conducted exploratory qualitative research with students of Mathematics Education, Universitas PGRI Ronggolawe Tuban, participating in the…

Classroom response systems (CRS) represent an innovative educational technology that can be used to promote active learning and student engagement. This study explores the effectiveness of CRS in enhancing student learning and performance across various engineering courses related to heat engines. During five academic years, CRS have been used…

This study investigates the influence of game elements on active learning intentions within digital learning platforms. Drawing from a situational perspective, we developed a model and validated it using data from 492 respondents collected via questionnaires. Our findings suggest that while social elements enhance active learning intentions, both…

Due to globalization, emerging technologies, and the knowledge economy, there has been a growing emphasis on students having global competencies and perspectives to succeed in an increasingly interconnected world. On the other hand, a variety of technologies have been adopted for inquiry-based learning (IBL) activities. An interactive e-book…

This paper introduces the Wearable Story, an interactive storytelling jacket designed for young children to facilitate their story listening experience while learning through play. The wearable medium supports embodied learning by providing experiences through which children are encouraged to use their bodies to learn. With the jacket, children…

Pear Deck is an online active learning presentation tool designed to aid teachers in creating impactful lessons.
