The research aimed to 1) develop a learning package for the living of the elderly, 2) assess the quality of the developed learning package, 3) assess the technology acceptance of the developed learning package, and 4) find out the elderly's satisfaction towards the developed learning package. The learning package was developed following the 5-step…

This book focuses on cellphilming as a participatory visual methodology in arts-based research and teaching. The book aims to advance critical perspectives--and re-visioning--in relation to the co-production of knowledge through cellphilming. Many of the chapters come out of an international virtual symposium hosted by McGill University in June…

The first of the two postulates of relativity states that the laws of physics are the same in all inertial reference frames. Often it is assumed that the postulates are mainly concerned with objects moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light. However, the postulates are applicable at all speeds from a snail to a photon. To practically…

A phone emitting sound of a fixed frequency is sliding on an inclined plane and approaching a second phone kept at the bottom of the plane. The detected frequency versus time data by the second phone are used to calculate the acceleration of the sliding phone. The primary objective of this paper is to calculate the sliding friction between the…

How does the education sector recover following the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic? Much enthusiasm exists to imagine how teaching practices can be enriched within the so-called 'new normal.' The physical and mental health benefits associated with school physical education have attracted considerable attention during the pandemic.…

Schools operated mostly in online mode in the last two years because of the COVID-19 pandemic and many teachers are now using digital tools in physical classrooms after the reopening of schools. We conducted an experiment on how smartphones can be used to reinforce biology lessons of seventh standard students (mean age = 12.22 years) in a private…

Your body is not a point particle. The nature and direction of the forces counteracting gravity influence your experience of uniform rectilinear motion--as does your own orientation in relation to the force of gravity. Sensors in smartphones or other devices can capture these forces, and help establish a connection between the personal experience…

This study explored the mobile language learning experiences that Taiwanese high school English language teachers created. A total of 119 valid mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) lesson plans from 36 senior high schools in the national mobile learning (m-learning) programme in Taiwan were analysed via content analysis. The results showed…

Videos created with the hands of teachers filmed have been perceived as useful educational resource for students of Physics in undergraduate courses. In previous works, we analyzed the students' perception about educational videos by asking them about their experiences. In this work, we analyze the same facts, but from a learning analytics…

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, academic institutions across the globe have been forced to move to online learning environments. It has been particularly challenging for the experimental sciences to develop and deliver authentic lab-based experiences. Some of the strategies that have been adopted for first-year physics labs include: providing a…

Pearson's Learning Foundations describe the optimal conditions for learning and reflect the learner experience Pearson hopes their products will create. Pearson does this by incorporating the Learning Design Principles. Each of the Learning Design Principles goes into detail about a key principle, supporting product design and marketing by…

This paper explores another format for mobile learning (mLearning) content consisting of Still Pictures, Audio, and Text (SPAT; Rha, Instructional contents delivery through SPAT format in mobile environment: introduction to gglearn system, Global Knowledge Alliance International Forum, 2015) by considering a variety of mLearning needs. SPAT-based…

This study aims to explore and rate the strategies and environmental factors that enhance the attention spans of Grade 3 pupils in Mabinay Central School and Lumbangan Central School. Recognizing attention span as a critical factor in academic performance, the research examines how teaching strategies such as active learning, multimodal…

In this paper we present the results derived from a project aimed to study the "learning gains" obtained by undergrad engineering students that used two mobile learning resources (in video format). We conducted our study over a 6-year time interval applying "pre-test" and "post-test" instruments to both experimental…

Teacher professional development (TPD) programs enhance teachers' skills and competence. Since teachers are the primary beneficiaries, their perceptions are crucial in assessing TPD effectiveness and relevance, providing insights to improve future program design and evaluation. This study focused on Biology teachers, who were non-education…
