Teachers' decisions for instructional design and technology integration influence their teaching practices and student learning performances. Technology-integrated learning environments have been widely leveraged due to the recent global health crisis and student learning needs (Polly et al., "TechTrends," 65(3), 240-242 2021). Teachers…

This study examines an aspect of the role of emotion in multimedia learning, i.e., whether participants can recognize the instructor's positive or negative emotion based on hearing short clips involving only the instructor's voice just as well as also seeing an embodied onscreen agent. Participants viewed 16 short video clips from a statistics…

With COVID-19 compelling some countries to close their schools, e-learning has now become the primary mode of learning. Researchers have renewed their interest in users' acceptance of e-learning via different platforms, given the possibility of different results relative to what was known pre-pandemic. However, e-learning still poses issues such…
