Background: It is stated that it is necessary that students develop their nanoliteracy in order to come up with everyday issues arising from Nanoscale Science and Technology (NST) applications, taking informed decisions and estimating the potential risks and benefits. Even though the inclusion of NST in compulsory education is supported by many…

Research Findings: Self-regulation is an important determinant of children's developmental outcomes, but little research has explored its different facets simultaneously. This study aims to explore a sample of Chinese children's behavioral, cognitive and emotional self-regulation characteristics by examining their gender and age differences,…

This study applies a time-driven approach to model self-regulated learning (SRL) on the basis of elapsed time metrics in the context of open-ended learning environments (OELEs), specifically, network-based tutors. In doing so, we examine how students allocated attentional resources to distinct phases of SRL as a measure of depth of information…

An emergency shift to online education after COVID-19 brought many challenges for students and teachers, especially the university students living in the rural areas of Pakistan.

The aim was to investigate how a reflective tool, the T-CoRe, in combination with annotated self-recorded videos and reflective writing, could be used to capture student teachers' knowledge of digital technology use in their teaching. The authors used both a quantitative and a qualitative method to explore how 87 secondary science student teachers…

In this study we investigated how augmented storying fosters children's ecological imagination. Augmented storying couples culturally-based nature stories embedded in augmented storytelling technology with children's own mobile and multimodal storying activities outdoors in local ecologies. The study took place during a four-month,…

This qualitative case study presents an investigation on how three adult literacy educators in community-based teaching contexts are using anti-deficit, culturally relevant and critical practices to engage racialised women in learning processes that counter colonial epistemology. These educators work in Ontario, Canada where policy around adult…
