The purpose of this paper is to present the use of emerging technologies in MOOCs as a practical remedy to facilitate the globalization of higher education by alleviating many of the challenges that institutions encounter while establishing international compatibility and competitiveness. The globalization of higher education is important for…

The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of Technology-Assisted Learning (TAL) and Project-Based Learning (PjBL) approaches upon students' attitudes toward mathematics and their academic achievements. A quasi-experimental research design was employed including pre-tests, post-tests and a retention test. The findings of the research…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the affordances and constraints of a technological tool to foster pre-service teachers' (PSTs) noticing skills including attending to, interpreting, and responding to students' mathematical work. Participants were 99 junior or senior PSTs in a mathematics pedagogy course at a large university. Using…

This study examined how cultural values and teacher beliefs influence Chinese and Spanish university teachers' acceptance of ICTs by combining Hofstede's cultural values theory with technology acceptance theories. Four hundred and twenty-five university teachers from China and 385 teachers from Spain participated in the study. The proposed…

The purpose of this article is to explore the relationship between technology integration and play from a whole child perspective, specifically through online play groups. As play continues to decline and vanish from our schools completely, the author believes we must reexamine the countless benefits of play across STREAM education. With current…

Promoting the cultivation of computational thinking (CT) skills in programming activities has become a key issue in the K-12 curriculum, however, there is no unified conclusion on how to design programming activities to promote the acquisition of CT skills more effectively. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of using…

In this research we explore the pedagogical affordances associated with the use of a 3D printer in a middle school classroom (11-12 years old). We introduced the 3D printer in a classroom where no one, including the teacher, had prior knowledge of 3D printing. Lessons using the 3D printer were designed to correspond with the mathematics curriculum…

Adaptive learning technology solutions often use a learner model to trace learning and make pedagogical decisions. The present research introduces a formalized methodology for specifying learner models, logistic knowledge tracing (LKT), that consolidates many extant learner modeling methods. The strength of LKT is the specification of a symbolic…

How does platformization work as vehicle for the integration of public online education into a private global digital infrastructure? And how can education technologies ('edtech') be governed at various levels to benefit the public good? In this article, we examine online environments in primary schools in The Netherlands, a traditionally strong…

The paper examined the state-of-the-art in teaching Fine and Applied Arts in the Colleges of Education in Nigeria. Views and studies by experts and cooperate bodies were analysed. The concepts of Fine and Applied Arts, e-technology use, impacts and influence of technology as well as the state of the art in the instructions of Fine and Applied Arts…

For decades, technology advocates have claimed that we are on the cusp of a complete transformation in education. But, as Justin Reich explains, such transformations have not yet come to pass. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers did not use technology to significantly alter their teaching. Instead, technology enabled them to maintain many…

The use of technology in education has become an urgent necessity and is no longer a luxury. This is evident through the attachment of students to their tablets, mobile phones, and other forms of various technologies. Therefore, educational institutions, especially universities and higher education institutions, must think according to the age…

Purpose: Due to the eruption of the COVID-19 pandemic, many universities were forced to shift from the traditional learning practices to digital learning. Hence, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the factors that affect the university student's adoption of mobile technologies for mobile learning (m-learning) in their learning process.…

Adaptive learning technology solutions often use a learner model to trace learning and make pedagogical decisions. The present research introduces a formalized methodology for specifying learner models, logistic knowledge tracing (LKT), that consolidates many extant learner modeling methods. The strength of LKT is the specification of a symbolic…

How much has been lost in pursuit of convenience with the "learning anytime, anywhere" model? This aphorism stresses delivery and access as central goals of its broad application. Distance or technology-enhanced learning is an important step forward for education in general, but the learning effectiveness is low. Much of the challenge…
