The purpose of this study was to examine how pre-service teachers' competence beliefs, value beliefs, pedagogical beliefs, and their intention to integrate technology were related to one another. The sample was composed of 137 pre-service teachers from 22 schools in Taiwan. Using path modeling, the current study found that there was an interaction…

Technological innovations such as blended learning (BL) are rapidly changing teaching and learning in higher education, where BL integrates face to face teaching with web based learning. Thus, as polices related to BL increases, it is required to explore the theoretical foundation of BL studies and how BL were adopted and implemented in relation…

Future teachers face the challenge of whether and how to address their students' misconceptions--naïve concepts that often conflict with the correct scientific concepts taught at school. We developed a short-term digital training intervention on instructional knowledge about strategies for addressing students' misconceptions in physics. It…

Exercise is one way to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Aerobic exercise is a very popular choice for many people. Therefore, this study aims to develop exercise in maintaining and improving aerobic health. One of the most popular aerobic sports is gymnastics. In addition, with the development of aerobic exercise, it is also hoped that…

This study is about the adaptation of the Attitude Behavioural Scale (ABS) section of a Pupils' Attitudes Towards Technology (PATT) instrument for the Omani context. This study is a mixed methods research design and it consists of three phases. Phase 1 of the study is reported in this article. Phase 1 started with the selection of the PATT-USA as…

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) use in academic practice has progressed rapidly in the last decade. Nevertheless, it's use has been taken-for-granted and/or overlooked in academic practice, especially in doctoral research. This pilot study was carried out in 2017, with the aim to examine PhD supervisors' and PhD students'…

Gross anatomy is a source of anxiety for matriculating medical students due to the large volume of information presented in a truncated timeline, and because it may be their first exposure to human cadavers. This study aimed to assess if video-based resources would affect matriculating medical students' anatomy state anxiety levels. Videos were…

This paper explores potential ways of evaluating the implicit learning that may be present in autonomous smart learning activities and environments, reflecting on prior phenomenographic research into smart learning activities positioned as local journeys in urban connected public spaces. Implicit learning is considered as intrinsic motivation,…

Advanced digital technologies and social media have greatly improved both the learning experience and the assessment convenience, while inadvertently facilitated potential plagiarism and collaborative cheating at the same time. In this article, we will focus on the strategies and their technological implementations to run exams, or in-class tests…

Attending to distracting or competing information is typically considered detrimental to learning, but the presence of competing information can also facilitate learning when it is relevant to ongoing task goals. Educational settings often contain contextual elements such as classroom decorations or visual aids to enhance student learning. Despite…

Purpose: This review article provides a theoretical overview of the development of spectral resolution in children with normal hearing (cNH) and in those who use cochlear implants (CIs), with an emphasis on methodological considerations. The aim was to identify key directions for future research on spectral resolution development in children with…

Although core in the teaching of academic language skills, little research to date has investigated what makes video-recorded lectures difficult for language learners. As part of a larger program to develop automated videotext complexity measures, this study reports on selected dimensions of linguistic complexity to understand how they contribute…

Background: To increase teachers' capacity to implement high-quality instructional materials with fidelity in their classrooms through a video-based professional learning cycle, the Analyzing Instruction in Mathematics Using the Teaching for Robust Understanding framework (AIM-TRU) research-practice partnership was formed. Drawing upon the…

Many electroanalytical techniques utilize three-electrode systems consisting of reference, counter, and working electrodes. These electrodes are often expensive when purchased commercially, making low-cost alternatives a vital area of research. Cheaper alternatives have been proposed; however, they often require time-consuming assembly techniques…

The relevance of this research is due to the need to study the possibilities of lifelong learning in modern educational settings. Its central aim was to consider the influence of modern technologies on the level of professionalism of teachers in the process of lifelong learning. For this, a specially developed model aimed at increasing student…
