Smart learning environments provide students with opportunities to engage in self-regulated learning (SRL). However, little research has examined how teachers leverage these opportunities. We employed a multiple-case study methodology to examine the SRL supporting instructional practices of five third-grade teachers as they implemented a science…

When talking about digital resources in secondary education classrooms in the 21st Century, we must mention tools such as Mixed Reality (MR). However, we must not only have in mind the perspective and training of teachers on their use, but we must consider that the ecologies of the classroom are becoming increasingly diverse, thus demanding an…

This pilot project examines the experiences of a small sample (n = 4) of elementary pre-service teachers (PSTs) as they designed and attempted to implement a series of short lessons, or mini-units, using Ozobots or Makey Makeys during their field experience. Results indicated that, despite the fact that none of the PSTs were able to deliver their…

Technical culinary skills are fundamental competencies for professional chefs. Consequently, demonstrating and enhancing these skills pose significant challenges within culinary education. This study aims to develop a virtual reality (VR) system for culinary skill development and assess its effectiveness when integrated into a hospitality…

In fall 2023, Ithaka S+R launched a collective research project with the objective of studying generative AI's impact on teaching, learning, and research at the postsecondary level. Through a collaboration with 19 universities from across the US and Canada, the "Making AI Generative for Higher Education" project has provided an…

This qualitative study investigates the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support students' independent learning within a flipped classroom (FC) pedagogy. The main challenge of FC has been students' insufficient preparation for classroom activities. To address the challenge the Essentials of Business Law course was implemented with FC…

Children's gaming preferences, such as the types of games they enjoy, can significantly influence their engagement and learning outcomes. Research has shown that children are more likely to engage deeply and enter flow states when they play games that align with their interests. These preferences encompass specific game types, styles, difficulty…

This article proposes a novel conceptual framework that integrates Artificial Intelligence (AI) with Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) and the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning (CTML) to enhance Open Distance eLearning (ODeL) systems. By bridging the gap between traditional cognitive theories and cutting-edge AI technologies, this framework…

This research is a qualitative study that focuses on the experiences of teachers working in Turkish Ministry of National Education in the inservice training programs they receive through distance education, and aims to reveal the problems they face in this process and their suggestions for solutions to these problems. In this study, a case study…

Background: Foundation phase teachers are encouraged to develop learners' number sense skills in their teaching and learning activities. Despite the significance of teaching number skills in mental mathematics activities, there are inadequate guidelines that could assist teachers in developing number sense skills through technology-enhanced mental…

The use of technology in higher education has been shown to have multiple learning benefits, providing great help to all students. However, more evidence is needed on the benefits of technology for inclusive higher education through the analysis of classroom practices. This study aimed to analyse the advantages and limitations identified by…

The study investigates the effects of AI-enhanced multi-display language teaching systems on English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. Utilizing a pretest-posttest random assignment experimental design, the research involved 302 EFL students aged 19 to 28 in a higher education setting. The study examines the effects of AI-powered virtual…

The effectiveness of generative AI tools in education depends largely on prompt engineering--the practice of designing inputs and interactions that guide AI systems to produce relevant, high-quality outputs. This systematic literature review examines empirical studies published since the release of ChatGPT in late 2022, identifying two broad…

While the growing demand for technology integration in healthcare education and practice, technology training in speech-language pathology education is limited. Further research is warranted to investigate digital health and literacy training across interprofessional experiences. This study investigated interdisciplinary digital health and…

Literature indicates that virtual reality (VR) effectively supports and enhances spatial thinking in astronomy education. This study examines how pre-service elementary teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPCK) characteristics manifest during astronomy VR material's development and utilization. Nine sophomores, organized into…
