Teacher-student interaction is critical for providing learners with support and maintaining effective communication during the teaching process. The online teacher-student interaction mode, has posed challenges to the effectiveness of online classes. However, how to conduct effective interaction in online classes to improve learning outcomes…

Emotions of learners are fundamental and significant in e-learning as they encourage learning. Machine learning models are presented in the literature to look at how emotions may affect e-learning results that are improved and optimized. Nevertheless, the models that have been suggested so far are appropriate for offline mode, whereby data for…

Computational thinking (CT) is widely recognized as a fundamental skill in the information age. However, within the context of Chinese early childhood education (ECE), CT remains underrepresented, with a notable gap in the availability of developmentally appropriate and rigorously validated assessment tools designed specifically for…

In e-learning environments, most adaptive systems do not consider the learner's emotional state when recommending activities for learning difficulties, blockages, or demotivation. In this paper, we propose a new approach of emotion-based adaptation in e-learning environments. The system will allow recommendation resources/activities to motivate…

This study, grounded in the stimulus-organism-response (SOR) theory, aims to explore how stimulus factors (school support) influence cognitive organisms (psychological resilience, self-efficacy, attitude toward AI, and acceptance of AI), which in turn enhance behavioral responses (AI literacy), while also examining the detrimental effects of AI…

Rapid technological advancements of recent decades have fueled, among other aspects, a global boom in the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) tools across a variety of areas. Higher education, like other domains, has embraced these innovations, with ChatGPT emerging as one of the latest additions. Faculty perception, ability, and…

Understanding the emotions experienced by programming students, particularly concerning gender and education level, is increasingly critical. However, only limited research has used text data to examine these differences within the context of programming education and emotions. This study aims to determine programming students' emotions and any…

This study based on the Hedonic Motivation System Adoption Model (HMSAM), the Expectation Confirmation Model (ECM), and Task Technology Fit (TTF), explores the factors influencing users' continuance intention in gamified learning within metaversity. A total of 286 valid questionnaires were collected using random sampling. The data were analyzed…

This study provides a current systematic review of emotional design research in the multimedia learning domain and explores how emotional design is studied in multimedia learning. All studies on emotional design in multimedia learning published until 2023 were examined thoroughly. In this study, 51 journal articles were identified based on PRISMA…

Emotional contagion is an intriguing subject in many academic fields, and it is also relevant in collaborative learning where learners share a physical or virtual space. We aimed at exploring the possibilities of motivating, fascinating, and experiential elements of virtual reality (VR) in a collaborative learning context, with a focus on…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of higher education and adult learning, asynchronous video-based online learning has not only become the new norm but has also emerged as the cornerstone of instructional delivery for Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). Despite its widespread adoption, this learning mode confronts a critical challenge: the…

Online distance learning presents unique psychosocial characteristics due to the inherent distance between learners. Social presence --the sense of being with others-- is key to mitigating this distance. However, our understanding of social presence remains limited, despite its potential to reduce social isolation and cultivate a conducive social…

OpenAI's generative pre-trained transformer (ChatGPT) is rapidly transforming fields such as education and becoming an integral part of our daily lives. However, its rise has sparked intense privacy debates, raising concerns about the storage of personal information and attracting global regulatory scrutiny. ChatGPT is gaining popularity among…

Learning analytics dashboards (LADs) are emerging tools that convert abstract, complex information with visualizations to facilitate teachers' data-driven pedagogical decision-making. While many LADs have been designed, teachers' capacities for using such LADs are not well articulated in the literature. To fill the gap, this study provided a…

Learning interest affects the way of learning and its process, which is an important factor that affects the learning effect. At present, students' learning interest in a teaching environment is mainly based on a traditional questionnaire or case analysis, which is not conducive for teachers to promptly access students' interest in class to…
