This research studied self-directed learning in online English reading of seven secondary school students who attended a ten-week Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) learner training. The CALL learner training was sequenced using Knowles's (1975) six steps of self-directed learning, which were setting climate, analyzing needs, setting…

This article aims to present a new educational model that integrates engineering learning with design thinking via a cloud ecosystem to enhance digital intelligence for undergraduate students. This approach utilizes user-centered problem-solving to foster innovation and collaborative learning. The educational environment can adapt to 21st-century…

Large language models (LLMs)-based chatbots use natural language processing and are a type of generative artificial intelligence (AI) that is capable of comprehending user input and generating output in various formats. They offer potential benefits in medical education. This study explored the student's feedback on the utilization of LLMs in…

Recent research on learning analytics dashboards has focused on designing user interfaces that offer various forms of "visualization guidance" (often referring to notions such as "data storytelling" or "narrative visualization") to teachers (e.g., emphasizing data points or trends with colour and adding annotations),…

The increasingly diverse population of young children in the U.S. requires innovative culturally and linguistically sustaining literacy practices in early childhood education. Through parent-child ethnography, we share two stories of a multilingual and multicultural mother and daughter who created and enacted new storytelling practices in the…

In online learning, many teachers have adopted traditional assessment methods in offline assessments without adequately testing and assessing the consequences. Therefore, this descriptive study aims to identify teachers' and students' perceptions of online assessments in evaluating English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students' learning. A…

Access to core subject-area curriculum for students from immigrant backgrounds who are learning the dominant language of instruction has long been a barrier to equitable education around the world, especially in secondary schools. This article explores the promise of Complex Instruction (CI) to address barriers to access for such multilingual…

The study aimed to examine how teachers in technical schools in automotive classrooms integrate technology, employing a case study research approach. The Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) model coined by Mishra and Koehler (2006) was used to underpin the study as a framework. It emerges as a useful construct for researchers…

Recent research shows that transnational families draw on digital media in their language learning. However, little systematic knowledge exists on the nature of these practices, the tools used, and the families' views regarding digital media use for language learning. This article addresses this knowledge gap, presenting the results of an online…

Playback controls or audio/video control (AVC) buttons are common in technology-enhanced listening materials but are often overlooked in CALL theorizing and research. It is unclear how language learners use AVC buttons when they independently access computer-based L2 listening materials. This qualitative case study aimed to understand how…

The evaluation of in-service teacher educators ' feedback on using Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) processes is important for providing educational policymakers with the strengths and weaknesses of the Vadana platform. It proposes an integrated CALL evaluation scale (ICES) eliciting the in-service teacher educators' literacy of using…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the education landscape, emerging as a potent catalyst for enhancing student learning experiences. However, this integration has sparked diverse perspectives, with supporters applauding its transformative potential and opponents raising concerns about AI ethics, misuse, and value alignment.…

As emerging technologies are rapidly advancing as part of our societies and everyday life, it is crucial to include and empower all students in learning about computing and advanced technologies. These include technical capabilities of algorithms, such as the use of AI, that enable novel interactions between humans and their environment and give…

The Global Annual Results Report 2024 on Goal Area 2 of the UNICEF Strategic Plan 2022-2025 presents results on the education programme, policy and advocacy efforts supported by UNICEF and its partners around the world to protect and fulfill the right of children to education. This programme covers two result areas: (1) Equitable and inclusive…

Teacher professional development (TPD) programs enhance teachers' skills and competence. Since teachers are the primary beneficiaries, their perceptions are crucial in assessing TPD effectiveness and relevance, providing insights to improve future program design and evaluation. This study focused on Biology teachers, who were non-education…
