Notwithstanding the advantages of incorporating Augmented Reality (AR) in education, AR's concrete uses as compared to other technologies are not fully recognised. Moreover, many of the existing studies have neglected to examine the impact of pedagogy and its corresponding instructional models, whilst implementing AR in teaching and learning. In…

Introduction: The adoption of simulation technologies in schools of nursing has increased significantly over the last 5 years. Results regarding the use of simulation technology have been positive. The use of simulation technologies has been developed to include complex nursing situations that resemble real clinical settings. Research has…

As VR becomes increasingly mainstream due to lowering hardware costs and increased access to VR content, it becomes critical to fill the gap in learning sciences literature that explains how this content may be developed in alignment with targeted learning outcomes. It also becomes imperative to study the integration of VR outside the…

In this century, Augmented Reality (AR) is a "reality" technology that has begun to be integrated into the school curriculum and subjects. As one of the learning strategies, the goal is to help increase student learning motivation, the effectiveness of learning activities, and much more. Unfortunately, only a few studies incorporate AR…

Purpose: Augmented reality (AR) is an advanced version of the dynamic physical space that is perceived and received via visual, audio, digital and other sensory stimuli. The capabilities of virtual technologies change the field of university and education considerably. The necessity of using virtual technologies in the education field was revealed…

This paper examines, from a psychological perspective, why some young people may diagnose themselves with a mental health condition or neurodevelopmental difference after engaging with TikTok content. The article joins the discourse around TikTok self-diagnosis among adolescents, which has circulated since 2022, and offers alternative…

Nurses and social workers play pivotal roles in identifying and addressing domestic violence (DV) within healthcare settings, emphasizing the importance of their collaborative efforts. This scoping review investigates the current state of simulation education aimed at equipping nursing and social work students to screen, assess, and intervene in…

In this study, considering the effect of interactive learning environments on human cognition, we have examined extraneous processing effects of multimedia materials on cognitive load, metacognitive judgments and learning outcomes. This study examines Augmented Reality Learning Environments (ARLE) and Virtual Reality Learning Environments (VRLE)…

The rushed introduction of online education for universities because of the current covid-19 health crisis, has started to affect the quality of education for millions of students around the world. This pandemic has emphasized the need to improve the teaching process through the use of innovating educational tools, such as mobile augmented reality…

The purpose of this study was to examine the application of Augmented Reality (AR) Application in the Geography lesson of Primary School. The application covered the Earth's atmosphere and was evaluated by 71 students in the sixth grade of primary school who completed questionnaires before and after the educational intervention. The results were…

Over the past decade virtual reality technologies have been actively introduced into all spheres of life, affecting, among other things, the education sector. The purpose of this study is to develop a concept introducing a virtual reality simulator into educators' training. The underlying principle of the study is to design a virtual reality…

With the onset of COVID-19 and the continuing need to move both teaching and professional encounters online, novel approaches providing effective ways of doing both are gaining increasing attention. There was of course considerable work being done in virtual worlds long before COVID-19 became a factor, but now that it is becoming the norm for…

Aim/Purpose: This paper describes a technologies education model for introducing Simulation Learning and Extended Reality (XR) solution creation skills and knowledge to students at the tertiary education level, which is broadly applicable to higher education-based contexts of teaching and learning. Background: This work is made possible via the…

Astro Reality's Lunar Pro is a highly detailed Moon model that allows users to learn historical and astronomical facts through an augmented reality app. But even just holding this 12-cm diameter Moon in your hand is already an engaging experience. The terrain details are to a very high resolution and were created authentically using Lunar…

McGuire, Stevahn, and Bronsther (2019) focused on civic education in elementary grades, an important but sorely missing topic in schools. Using Storypath, a simulation-like approach to address the housing affordability in Seattle, the authors showed how motivated and engaged students were with the topic. A major strength of the study is the…
