This study investigates the impact of 3DS MAX software on creative development and skills in art education at GUIZHOU UNIVERSITY, China. As digital technologies become increasingly integral to art education, understanding how 3D animation software influences students' creative capabilities and technical skills is crucial for developing practical…

Technology offers exciting possibilities for instruction with learners with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but limited research has evaluated the use of web-based applications (apps) as learning tools for this population. We wondered if using apps would function as a precurrent response to solve problems in the form of questions on a worksheet.…

Geometric habits of mind (GHoM) are the approaches that individuals use to solve geometry problems. This study aimed to determine the effect of dynamic geometry software (DGS) in activating the GHoM of pre-service mathematics teachers. The study was conducted with six teacher candidates who were enrolled in a semester-long course titled…

In the study, problem-solving educational software (ProSES) was developed to reduce the challenges and mistakes experienced by primary school third-grade students in mathematical problem solving and to provide scaffolding and hint support for teacher help for the students using mobile technologies. The study aimed to determine the impact of the…

Pedagogical methods for graduate-level statistics courses have rarely focused on the pursuit of conditional knowledge or the ability to choose which concepts/procedures are relevant given a specific research situation. However, utilization of an innovative approach called decision-based learning (DBL) not only provides students with the…

Several publishing companies now offer competing brands of online homework (OHW) software. Students rarely have a voice in choosing their required course materials, even though, ultimately, they will be asked to use and pay for these systems. In this study, Calculus I students each tested three different OHW systems. The students were then asked…

In organizations that are seeking a high degree of maturity, it is necessary to achieve a statistical control of software processes and to know their behavior and operational performance. The approach adopted for the research involves reading articles and experience performance reports, practical cases, discussion, the use of games and simulators,…

Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) has been widely used in both industry and in schools over at least the last twenty years. The Industry Hothousing variant of CPS is an intensive, time-constrained workshop-based process to build mutual trust between customers and industry experts in order to synergically develop creative solutions. The main…

This study describes a teaching process that offers teachers and pupils ways of constructing the division operation through illustration based on defining the reference unit (divisor), the reference whole1 and the dividend. We introduce a computerized dynamic environment, using an Excel spreadsheet, in which both teachers and pupils can…

Modern web application development provides an attractive application area for introductory software engineering education, as students have direct experience with the domain and it provides them with the potential to gain practical, real-world skills. Achieving this potential requires the development of competency with a multiple component tech…

Research shows that students face a range of difficulties when using the Internet to solve information problems. Using a quasi-experimental design, we tested a strategy to improve Chilean 10th graders' skills for information problem solving using the Internet (IPS-I). The intervention was based on a workshop in which students learned IPS-I…

This study reports the effects of an interactive multimedia computer program for teaching social skills to youths with social-adjustment problems. Twelve youths (aged 11-17) were referred by the county diversion program or school guidance counselors. Seven were formally classified as having disabilities and had active Individualized Education…

In this study, the effects of blended learning on the middle school students' academic achievement level and product evaluation scores were investigated. Blended learning provides more effective learning outcome gains through enriching todays' developing Web Technologies with learning environments. This study was carried out with a total of 53…

Background: Teachers can have a significant impact on student interest and learning in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) subjects and careers. Teacher self-efficacy can also significantly affect student learning. Researchers investigated the effects of teacher professional development and integrated STEM curriculum development on…

Many studies have reported the utilization of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) in teaching Software Engineering courses. However, these studies have different views of the effectiveness of PBL. This paper presents the design of an Advanced Software Engineering course for undergraduate Software Engineering students that uses PBL to teach them Agile…
