The researchers pilot tested "The Fuller Life Man" in two college courses at the University of Utah, "Leisure in Your Life," a…

Undergraduate STEM lecture courses enroll hundreds who must master declarative, conceptual, and applied learning objectives. To support them, instructors have turned to active learning designs that require students to engage in "self-regulated learning" (SRL). Undergraduates struggle with SRL, and universities provide courses, workshops,…

Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have been widely used in the field of education, and artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) has gained increasing attention. However, no quantitative meta-analysis has been conducted on the overall effectiveness of AI on learning achievement and learning perception. To close this research…

The purpose of the present study was to explore what wireless and wearable technologies individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) use to connect socially, how these technologies are used to facilitation social connectedness, what barriers or challenges exist when using technology to connect socially, and what supports or…

Qualitative studies in the domain of physics education research have become more common in the last several decades. Methodologically, this has been marked by an expansion of the types of data collected in physics education research (PER): namely, in the use of individual and group interviews, problem-solving sessions, and classroom…

The purpose of this single case study was to determine how a project-based learning approach to instructional design supported education doctorate students' acquisition of new knowledge and practical application of skills in their current and future professions.
