Purpose: The reemergence of immersive virtual technology (IVR) provides both opportunities and challenges for workplace learning (WPL). The purpose of this study is to explore and develop knowledge about how gamification influences the WPL experience by addressing two research questions: "RQ1." What characterizes a gamified immersive…

Incorporating technology into educational processes is increasingly necessary to address the complexities of contemporary learning environments. This study investigates the impact of Augmented Reality (AR) on the academic performance of third-grade students in the areas of graphs and geometry. A quasi-experimental design was employed, comparing a…

Simulation with simulated patients is increasingly used in occupational therapy. Ensuring the debrief component meets student needs to develop their self-assessment skills for participating in a self-regulating profession is essential. This explanatory mixed-methods research sought to explore factors contributing to accurate and inaccurate…

Aim/Purpose: The study investigated how immersive learning environments could be used to encourage student engagement and reuse intentions by integrating desktop augmented reality (AR) into the classroom among primary school students. Background: This paper addresses the potential applications of immersive technology for younger learners and…

In many Global South countries, including South Africa, the adoption of Virtual Lab (VL) remains largely conceptual. This paper emphasizes the necessity of understanding teachers' perceptions of VL before implementation to mitigate risks of abandonment or underutilization post deployment. Guided by the Technology Acceptance Model (Davis, 1989),…

The traditional educational approaches in art classrooms have increasingly fallen short of addressing the needs of learners in an era marked by rapid technological advancements. Augmented reality (AR), as a leading representative of these emerging technologies, has recently been integrated into traditional educational methods, repeatedly…

Purpose: The present study examined the psychometric properties of the EGame-flow scale in a Mexican sample, presenting evidence of construct validity (exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis), reliability (Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega) and discriminant validity (mean variance extracted). Design/methodology/approach:…

Modern day organizations face a continuous challenge in ensuring that their employees are cognizant with malware and cyber attacks, since it has the potential to cause financial, legal, and reputational damage to them. Current awareness training exists in a multitude of forms to equip employees and organizations to protect themselves against…

The issue of model uncertainty has been gaining interest in education and the social sciences community over the years, and the dominant methods for handling model uncertainty are based on Bayesian inference, particularly, Bayesian model averaging. However, Bayesian model averaging assumes that the true data-generating model is within the…

This study explored science teachers' beliefs regarding the integration of simulations in inquiry-based science teaching (IBST) toward improving inquiry-based learning (IBL), both being grounded in constructivist principles in promoting critical and innovative thinking, scientific literacy and learner autonomy. Teachers' beliefs are crucial to…

Simulation-based learning (SBL) is an important component in health professions education and serves as effective preparation or a substitution for clinical placements. Despite their widely accepted benefits, students from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds may not experience the same learning outcomes from engaging in SBL as…

This study aims to test the effectiveness of GeoGebra Augmented Reality in improving students' mathematical problem-solving skills. The method used is a quasi-experiment with a posttest-only control group design. The research population is students of the Mathematics Education Study Program at a private university in Indonesia, with a sample of 32…

Extended reality technologies -- mixed, augmented, and virtual reality, and future-related technologies -- are rapidly expanding in many fields, with underexplored potentials for multimodal composition in digital media environments. This research generates new knowledge about the novel wearable technology -- smart glasses -- to support elementary…

The semi-direct speaking test format has limitations, particularly due to its lack of situational authenticity and contextualized input. To address this issue, virtual reality (VR) can be integrated into speaking proficiency tests to enhance authenticity. In this study, a newly designed VR speaking test was administered, and test-takers'…

Based on the advantages of virtual reality technology, this paper analyzes the current situation of ideological and political education in colleges and universities, and points out the existing problems and shortcomings. On this basis, the course of ideological and political education for college students based on virtual reality technology is…
