Background: Virtual reality (VR) is becoming increasingly accessible and being utilized in various organizations to meet education and training needs. Despite its potential, research regarding VR applications has focused on measuring the effectiveness of VR programs relative to non-VR programs; consequently, the ways in which VR programs are…

Background: In recent years, immersive virtual reality in education has garnered attention, however, there have been mixed findings on the efficacy of IVR in education. Thus, exploring which strategies are effective in transferring learning from IVR to real-world applications is imperative. Objective: This study aims to investigate the efficacy of…

Background: Training the memorization of declarative knowledge requires the repetitive presentation of various forms of factual questions to learners. Educational games designed for this purpose should offer activities that are both tailored to individual learners and varied to prevent boredom. Whilst the Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL)…

Background Study: Learning Analytics (LA) has emerged as a powerful tool for personalising learning, gaining insights into students' learning processes, and enhancing teachers' reflective practices and awareness. Over the past decades, extensive research has been conducted to understand the factors that play a crucial role in the adoption of…

Background: Given students' lack of self-directed learning skills and the growing concern about implementing massive online open courses (MOOCs) in K12 education, learning strategies are needed to facilitate MOOC learning. Many studies have provided different strategies for effective learning in MOOCs. However, there is still limited research to…

Background: High fidelity simulations can be an effective tool for anti-harassment education. While emotions have been identified as crucial in simulation-based education, their role in anti-harassment education within medical training remains underexplored. Objectives: We aimed to investigate emotional profiles of medical residents during…

Aim: In recent years, the integration of cutting-edge technology into professional sports training (ST) has revolutionized the way athletes prepare for competition. The study aims to quantitatively analyse the impact of cutting-edge technology on enhancing performance, efficiency, and outcomes in professional ST programs. Purpose: The purpose of…

Background: Video-based training has been widely adopted by private organizations and public authorities to educate occupants on various types of building emergencies. However, the effectiveness of video-based training for preparing occupants for building emergencies has not been rigorously studied nor has the impact of emergency type been…

Background: Physiotherapy education traditionally relies on face-to-face instruction for teaching complex manual therapy techniques. Current remote teaching methods struggle to convey spatial aspects of physical techniques, limiting their effectiveness for practical skills training. Few examples were found of immersive training systems for…

Background: The potential of learning analytics dashboards in virtual reality simulation-based training environments to influence occupational self-efficacy via self-reflection phase processes in the Chemical industry is still not fully understood. Learning analytics dashboards provide feedback on learner performance and offer points of comparison…

Background: Recent years have witnessed a surge of technology use and online learning environments, especially during the post-COVID era. The widespread use of technology has sparked a sudden transition from conventional face-to-face learning to online digital-based learning platforms, such as Adobe Connect. Although EFL teachers have implemented…

Nowadays, patients' safety is the top priority for medical services around the world. However, it is believed that many of the adverse events in hospitals are preventable. Type and screen (T&S) procedures require intense practical training by each medical practitioner in each hospital. This study applied an interactive Virtual Reality (VR)…

Children are vulnerable in earthquakes, but they are also essential to foster earthquake-resilient communities. It is critical to enhance the preparedness of children against earthquakes through effective education and training. Immersive virtual reality (IVR) and serious games (SGs) are innovative digital technologies that enable realistic and…

This research develops a web-based model, entitled the "intuitive claim, peer-assessment, discussion, and elaborate claim argumentation training" (IPadE) model, and embeds with a Web-based Interactive Argumentation System to enhance undergraduate students' socioscientific argumentation abilities. This research adopts a quasi-experimental…

Humans segment naturalistic actions into meaningful units. These are hierarchically organized: multiple fine events are part of a coarse event. We investigated how repeated practice of a virtual sequential assembly task influences learning of coarse and fine assembly steps. In Experiment 1, participants (N = 10) parsed the task into coarse and…
