Many studies have been conducted to investigate the effect of using smartphones in the teaching and learning process. The purpose of the present study was to identify the factor structure and the psychometric properties of a smartphone questionnaire. The questionnaire was translated into Arabic and administered to 203 students at a university in…

Digital learning environments provide opportunities to support learning in higher education. However, it is yet unclear why and how learners use these opportunities. We propose that learners' achievement goals and their beliefs regarding the instrumentality of e-learning tools to achieve those goals are predictive for learning behavior within…

During Laura Kerbey's time teaching autistic children, she had a sudden realisation that those with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) are children like no other! None of her tried and tested autism strategies would work to help them focus or learn and most of her time was spent wondering, "what am I doing wrong?" If you feel the same,…

The current study examined the influences of SRL prompts provided in three different phases (i.e., forethought, performance, and self-reflection) on college students' learning outcome and SRL levels during video-based learning. Fifty-eight participants were randomly assigned into one of the four conditions: 1) SRL prompts at the forethought phase;…

As a remedial measure to human-induced climate change, it is imperative to develop intrinsic altruistic values and adequate knowledge of environmental phenomena and behavior to act in favor of the environment. The study aims to assess the effect of an Environmental Education Program (EEP) based on empathy, reflective thinking, and information on…

Purpose: This research aims to enhance the model of student learning behavior by expanding the traditional theory of reasoned action (TRA) to incorporate variables such as student mental well-being (SMW), attitude, subjective norms (SNB), perceived behavioral control (PBC) and climate change concerns. The study examines students' intentions as a…

This study explores the effectiveness of chatbots empowered by generative artificial intelligence (GAI) in assisting university students' creative problem-solving (CPS). We used quasi-experiments to compare the performance of dialogue dynamics, learner perceptions, and practical competencies in CPS during students' interactions with: (1) a GAI…

The article offers analyses of the phenomenon of copying (plagiarism) in higher education. The analyses were based on a quantitative survey using questionnaires, conducted in 2019 at one of the Polish universities. Plagiarism is discussed here both as an element of the learning process and a subject of public practices. The article presents…

This article replicates a prior study of student perceptions of captions in a specialized learning context to understand the extent to which captions are useful for students learning specialized vocabulary. It describes the results of a conceptual replication (Christensen et al., "Technology, Knowledge and Learning," 2021) of a…

As museums evolve and shift toward interactive exhibitions by utilizing cutting-edge technologies, there has been a gap in research that distinguishes interactive exhibit experiences from static exhibit experiences. Therefore, using the grounded theory method [Corbin, Juliet, and Anselm Strauss. "Basics of Qualitative Research: Techniques and…

Noticing the strengths in students' mathematical thinking is a critical skill that teachers need to develop, but it can be challenging due to the prevalence of deficit-based thinking in mathematics education. To address this challenge, a teacher education course was designed to encourage prospective teachers to engage in critical reflection on…

This study confers certain psychological factors that may affect the learning process of the students such as self-construal, demotivation, and disengagement. Nevertheless, extensive work has been accomplished on the theme of individuals' motivation and engagement within numerous domains across the world. How self-construal (SC), demotivation…

The research explores the effect of STEM and STEM-based robotic activities on the development of students' perceptions of mental risk-taking and its predictors and their perceptions of inquiry learning skills related to science. A mixed method was applied in the research. Its sample consisted of 35 students in a high school of the Ministry of…

Self-regulation of learning refers to the actions that students perform before, during and after their learning processes take place and has a social and collaborative component. This article analyses key dimensions of learning regulation in a sample of 697 students from different subject areas (Education, Engineering, Economics and Law studies)…

Feedback literacy includes students' abilities to understand, use and benefit from feedback processes; it is important for the development of self-directed learning, SDL. Considering all of the places where students can potentially learn, especially the clinic, we would argue that feedback has been too narrowly defined. This study aims to explore…
