Architectural design representations comprise physical (models, drawings) and digital media (3D models). Multimodal combinations of physical and digital representations are commonplace in professional contexts such as design reviews or building sites, and 'making sense' of these assemblies requires complex socio-cognitive processes and…

The purpose of this research is to develop the use of Virtual Reality (VR) and fieldwork with teenagers in two compulsory schools in the capital city area of Iceland. The study aims to understand how teenagers succeed in an enquiry driven work combining simple digital tools, such as mobile phones, when making 360° photos, analysing opportunities…

Learning loss can be characterized by several things such as a lack of student interest in learning where students are not focused and easily lazy in learning. This learning loss will get worse if the material presented in the lesson is abstract in nature and cannot be seen in real terms by students. With the use of a hologram projector, this…

This research studies the motivational factors used in educational video games through the lens of 6 C's learning motivation model with text mining of the players' reviews and comments. This research seeks to offer insight for game producers and educational institutions to investigate the effectiveness of these motivators for increasing player…

Recent advancements in generative artificial intelligence for visualization offer significant opportunities to develop instructional materials. These opportunities can benefit astronomy education, which frequently relies on visual aids like representations. This document analysis study investigates ChatGPT-4o's capabilities for creating and…

Flashcard interventions are commonly used to increase sight-word acquisition and reading ability among students. However, most research on flashcard interventions is implemented in person and not using virtual instruction. The current study compared two flash card interventions, incremental rehearsal (IR) and strategic incremental rehearsal (SIR),…

Agricultural studies mainly rely on quantitative research approaches. Despite growing interest in and uptake of qualitative, participatory, and visual methods due to their perceived advantages in gathering in-depth information and empowering participants, visual-digital research methods have yet to be largely applied. In our study on adaptation…

Higher learning institutions teaching gross anatomy are implementing 3D technology, such as the Anatomage Table, to supplement cadaveric dissection. However, the literature is scant about the effects of introducing 3D technologies on students' learning outcomes in the study of gross anatomy. The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine…

Constructing interactive web apps has become more accessible for instructors, for example, by using the R package Shiny. Here we explored learners' preferences and the efficiency of interactive simulations versus static pictures in acquiring statistics knowledge of Cohen's d and standard normal distribution. Results revealed that students'…

This volume is largely about nontraditional data; this paper is about a nontraditional visualization: classification trees. Using trees with data will be new to many students, so rather than beginning with a computer algorithm that produces optimal trees, we suggest that students first construct their own trees, one node at a time, to explore how…

Rising interest in artificial intelligence in education reinforces the demand for evidence-based implementation. This study investigates how tutor agents' physical embodiment and anthropomorphism (student-reported sociability, animacy, agency, and disturbance) relate to affective (on-task enjoyment) and cognitive (task performance) learning within…

This chapter explores the potential of integrating conversational AI tools such as ChatGPT with data visualization (DV) tools such as Power BI in higher education settings. A brief history of chatbots is summarized and challenges and opportunities in higher education are outlined. The highlights include AI's prospects for enhancing data-informed…

Many publications describe use of ultrasound imaging in teaching of clinical courses, primarily integrated with clinical applications. More recently there have been increasing numbers of papers describing ultrasound as a tool primarily for teaching basic anatomy and physiology concepts rather than clinical applications. Of these, many have…

Educational dashboards are increasingly prevalent visualising technologies that display data from educational processes to help learners and educators track learning pathways, alert for deviations, and make interventions. This study contributes to critical studies on data visualisations in education by examining dashboards in higher distance…

This article presents the adaptations for creating a set of Dragon Curve fractals using the Platonic polyhedra. The modeled fractals were inserted into environments programmed with Virtual Reality (VR) resources, which allow the visitor to manipulate and visualize each iteration used to construct these fractals. The structures of HTML page…
