Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is expected to create a greater sense of presence that might improve students' laboratory learning experiences. However, little research has verified the influence of presence on students' perceptions toward immersive laboratory learning. The current study, which is based on the expectation confirmation model,…

This research aimed to explore the dimensions and implications of the early use and integration of metaverses in public high schools in the region of the Altos de Chiapas, Mexico, through a sequential mixed methods approach. Initially, a standardized survey was administered to a stratified probabilistic sample of 1402 students from various schools…

Background: Enjoyment and epistemic emotions are essential in education as they drive learners to actively and persistently engage with learning material. Augmented Reality (hereinafter referred to as AR) is an emerging educational tool that offers unique opportunities for immersive learning experiences. By incorporating AR into the learning…

STEM education is widely recognized as a powerful means of cultivating well-rounded future talent. However, challenges such as difficulties in observation, declining learning interests, and the lack of teaching resources present obstacles to the implementation of STEM education in China. Virtual Reality (VR), with its immersive, interactive, and…

The authors develop an educational simulation game for basic vapour-liquid equilibrium (VLE) to use in chemical engineering education, basing the design on educational guidelines from the active learning literature. The game is tested in three cohorts totalling 84 students, showing significant increase in a knowledge test of VLE, and positive…

As educational needs change, gamified immersive virtual reality (I-VR) can enhance learning by making it more interactive. Immersive virtual reality is used more in science than in the humanities. This study uses the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to explore factors that affect students' intentions to use gamified I-VR, particularly in…

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of employing an augmented reality (AR) lens imaging system on inquiry-based learning concerning junior high school students' science achievement, science learning motivation, and inquiry skills. For this purpose, an AR lens imaging learning system was developed specifically for the lens imaging…

This study investigates the challenges of teaching history to primary school students and the endeavour to develop a board game, supported by educational apps and augmented reality, to enhance the learning experience. The initiative is in response to the New Zealand Ministry of Education's mandate that New Zealand's history must be taught in all…

Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is one of the most important learning strategies. Augmented Reality (AR) is an effective way to support this strategy, which is considered conducive to enhance academic achievements of students during IBL. This paper investigated teacher-student interactions during AR-supported IBL by comparison and case study. First,…

The project-based learning using design thinking model via metaverse to enhance Buddhism innovators is integrating project-based and design thinking processes. Besides, using technology in the virtual world promotes learning activities. The model focused on allowing learners to study independently with instructors as counselors and facilitating…

The aim of this study is to examine factors that affect secondary students' behavioural intention to use GeoGebra Augmented Reality to support a projectbased geometry learning environment. To achieve this purpose, we adopted technology acceptance model (TAM). A total of 54 students from two lower secondary schools in Indonesia were involved in…

The globalization of contemporary education is ensured by the incorporation of cutting-edge pedagogical techniques and active learning technologies, such as case-method technology, into the teaching and learning process as a whole. The primary objective of this research endeavour was to assess the efficacy of the case method when employed in the…

Scientific literacy must be developed to prepare the students for handling current challenges. This study purpose is to determine whether the use of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics (STEAM) and Virtual Reality (VR) with the Project-based Learning (PjBL) model has an influence on scientific literacy in elementary students. The…

Purpose: Green building education, an important aspect of sustainability in higher education, has rapidly expanded across the world. Yet, a bespoke pedagogical model integrating the essential elements of green building knowledge into a university course is lacking. To plug this deficiency, this study aims to develop an innovative pedagogical model…

To aid in teaching dialogue skills a virtual simulator called "Communicate!" was developed at Utrecht University. Teachers can build scenarios for students to practice dialogues with a virtual character. In two experiments (n = 128 and 133, a year apart), we investigated if and how "Communicate!" can be an effective aid to…
