Individuals may encounter many negativities due to the misuse of computers and the Internet. Children suffer the most from these negativities. This situation necessitates parents who always protect and stand by their children, to become knowledgeable about the safe use of computers and the Internet. In this study, we examined the opinions of the…

ASCUE, the Association Supporting Computer Users in Education, is a group of people interested in small college computing issues. It is a blend of people from all over the country who use computers in their teaching, academic support, and administrative support functions. ASCUE has a strong tradition of bringing its members together to pool their…

Research that tackles the pedagogical use of geolocated social media as an investigative tool for understanding cities in Geography and Urban Studies higher education programs has not been fully exploited. This study contributes by addressing the transferability of these sources as a research medium for enhancing student knowledge of urban…

This paper constructs an overview of the historical development of the International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education (IJTME) during the period 2004- 2018. The titles of the published papers in this period are examined, focusing on what technological tools were studied, and what theoretical ideas were used to study the teaching and…

This article addresses the issue of educating engineering students with the knowledge and skills of Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM). In particular, three carefully designed tutorials--cutting tool offsetting, tool-path generation for freeform surfaces, and the integration of advanced machine tools (e.g., hexapod-based machine…

This study aims to know the relationship between the variables attitude toward social networks, attitude toward technology, perception about technology and use of technology by university students. The methodology used has been a questionnaire, which has been applied to students of the Technological University of Santiago (UTESA) of the Dominican…

Personally-owned laptops and other "Bring-Your-Own-Device" (BYOD) scenarios have become increasingly prevalent in today's work environments and classrooms. However, few studies have examined the viability and practicality of such devices in the higher-education classroom. This study used a survey instrument to explore the concept of BYOD…

Encryption based ransomware operates by iterating through all files with specific extensions on the computer and mutating them into an unusable form. The mutation, in many cases, can only be reversed if the user pays the operator of the ransomware a fee to get their files back. K-12 school districts have fallen victim to rampant malware as a…

As the cyber security landscape dynamically evolves and security professionals work to keep apace, modern-day educators face the issue of equipping a new generation for this dynamic landscape. With cyber-attacks and vulnerabilities substantially increased over the past years in frequency and severity, it is important to design and build secure…

Learning in communities of practice (CoPs) makes up a significant portion of today's knowledge gain. However, only little technological support is tailored specifically toward CoPs and their particular strengths and challenges. Even worse, CoPs often do not possess the resources to host or develop a software ecosystem to support their activities.…

One-to-one computing programmes -- that is, when each student has a personal, portable computer to use while learning -- have been studied extensively, mostly regarding their actual classroom implementation. In this quantitative study, the authors take a broader perspective, exploring the impact of teaching in one-to-one computing programmes on…

This mixed research aims to analysis and design the Web Game On Descriptive Statistics (WGODS) through the ADDIE model, data science and machine learning. The sample consists of 61 students from a university in Mexico. WGODS is a technological tool (quiz game) that presents various questions and answers about statistics (quantitative and…

The overuse of lecture-based approaches for instruction in university courses may have limited student access to knowledge, particularly the transfer of complex concepts, such as central limit theorem in statistics. This study seeks to contribute to empirical research regarding the effectiveness of serious educational games (SEGs) to increase…

Sweden has one of the most marketised and decentralised school systems in the world while also ranking amongst countries with the highest levels of access to technology in classrooms. Considering the increasingly central role that digital platforms play in the practices of schooling, this article speculates on what might happen during the 2020s in…

This study investigated the effects of an instructional technology device, specifically, a computer-based graphic organizer, called the "Real-World Connections Vocabulary" graphic organizer (Ellis, 2015), on vocabulary acquisition for college entrance testing skills of students with high-incidence disabilities. Although graphic…
