This work provides an overview of the use of Virtual Reality (VR) technology in the context of training through the documentation of a project produced by Ohio University's Game Research and Immersive Design (GRID) Lab involving the development of a cine-VR series for police officer training in areas such as suicide prevention, mental health,…

Background: Guided gaze is the instructor's gaze towards teaching materials to guide students' attention, and it plays a vital role in enhancing video-based education. The duration of guided gaze, indicating how long instructors focus on teaching materials, varies based on the lecture design. Nevertheless, the impact of varying durations of guided…

Publicly available technologies are only truly 'public' if people are aware of them and know how to use them. In the US, significant resources have been devoted to public education around the recently released ShakeAlert® earthquake early warning (EEW) system operated by the U.S. Geological Survey; however, those efforts have been inconsistently…

This comparative study of everyday life in Norwegian and French preschools explores how 'risk' related to children's body practices is understood, practised and negotiated by teachers and how this may regulate educational practices in a short- and long-term perspective. Studying educational institutions in two different societies illuminates…

This pre-test post-test control group design sought to compare the effectiveness of delivering different types of information ([1] factual information vs. [2] factual information + descriptive and explanatory information vs. [3] factual information + descriptive, explanatory + directive information) in an animated video intervention in increasing…

Discussions about mental health's impact on student-athletes continue to increase in collegiate athletics. As leaders, college coaches play an integral part in supporting student-athletes. In this leadership role, coaches must have the proper knowledge and skills to support their student-athletes' mental wellness. The purpose of the current…

360° videos have yielded satisfactory outcomes in English learning. However, there exists a dearth of research that delves into the efficacy of these videos for self-directed learning of English. This study aimed to investigate the factors that influence students' use of 360° videos in self-directed learning of English by using the integrative…

This study examines the impact of video-based learning on preservice elementary teachers, focusing on the use of Accomplished Teaching, Learning, and Schools (ATLAS) and Teaching Channel video resources. The research addresses the increasing reliance on video analysis for teacher preparation. Two groups of preservice teachers participated,…

Analytical chemistry is one of the chemical materials that is considered difficult by students. The application of multi-representational proximity in delivering analytical chemistry material can make it easier for students to understand the material. The purpose of research and development is to produce Instagram- and TikTok-based learning media…

Existing research shows that identical cognates are read more quickly than noncognates. However, most studies focused on words presented in isolation or embedded in sentences. To address this gap, our exploratory eye-tracking study is the first to investigate the processing of cognates and noncognates in English subtitles. First, we tested whether…

This study investigates the relative impact of online delivery of supplemental instruction (SI) to undergraduate students enrolled in STEM courses at a large, four-year, Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) in the southern United States. A multi-condition, randomized trial comparing the relative performance of in-person to online SI was implemented…

Purpose: Patients receive multiple bolus trials during a videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) to assess swallow function, inclusive of narrowing within the pharyngoesophageal segment (PES). While differences in the narrowest and widest segments are visualized, the ratio of distention across boluses is not well understood. Method: A…

Experimental research around virtual humans acting as pedagogical agents has often taken place in learner-paced learning environments. However, virtual humans are increasingly embedded in educational materials such as instructional videos, where the pacing of the environment can be fundamentally different than a stand-alone learner-controlled…

Several studies have examined the efficacy of behavior analytic coaching strategies in sports to increase performance fluency. Rock climbing is a multifaceted sport requiring mastery of several complex behavior chains in order to successfully navigate climbing surfaces. To date, most investigations have focused on the physiological aspects of rock…

Teachers are increasingly adopting flipped instruction for individual lessons or even entire courses. Typically, flipped instruction involves a teacher assigning videos for homework and then using in-class time for students to solve problems--that is, the settings for content delivery and completing assignments have "flipped." In…
