In this article, we provide an empirical example of how digital technology; in this case, GeoGebra may assist students in uncovering--or whiteboxing--the content of a mathematical proof, in this case that of Proposition 41 from Euclid's "Elements." In the discussion of the example, we look into the impact of GeoGebra's…

Assessing the performance of academics at different levels is increasingly difficult to achieve using traditional methods based mainly on numerical scores in evaluating teaching and research activity. The indexing of academic performance in various international databases with impact indices at different scales has led to the need for advanced…

Physical therapy education has significantly evolved over the past few decades. While gross anatomy is integral to physical therapy education curricula, the current state of anatomy education within these programs is not well understood. The primary purpose of this report was to provide an update on the current state of anatomy education across…

Virtual reality learning environment (VRLE), which allow students to transcend time and space and provide them with a sense of immersion, is becoming more common in education. Although many studies have explored the effects of VRLE on learners' learning outcomes as well as learning experiences, the results of these studies indicate that the…

This study evaluated the impact of a 6-week fully online Certificate in Online Teaching for Educators (COTE) program on graduates' teaching practices. A survey was distributed to 350 COTE graduates, with 24 respondents completing the questionnaire. Results showed that most participants applied learnings from COTE to their teaching including…

In crowdsourcing ideation websites, companies can easily collect large amount of ideas. Screening through such volume of ideas is very costly and challenging, necessitating automatic approaches. It would be particularly useful to automatically evaluate idea novelty since companies commonly seek novel ideas. Four computational approaches were…

This dissertation examines the affective qualities of non-player character motion in a Virtual Reality (VR) cognitive training game, their impact on players' core affective experiences, game performance, and cognitive training outcomes. How do the movements of game characters in a VR environment affect players' experienced emotions, gameplay…

The public release of ChatGPT in 2022 ushered in a new era, affirming the present reality of AI-assisted writing and the critical role business instructors play in preparing students. This study presents the results of a pedagogical experiment. Specifically, it evaluates strategies for integrating and teaching about AI in the business…

The field of school psychology has seen the gradual implementation of technology in day-to-day practice. The earliest computer-based technology adopted by school psychologists consisted of software programs used to score tests, run analyses for multi-tiered systems of support, and aid in tele-consultation. These tasks have one thing in common;…

Reflective learning is an important factor that has a positive impact on students' learning efficacy. The study aims to bring insight into the use of e-portfolios as a means and tool to promote reflection in the classroom and build self-reflection habits, plan learning activities and build learning autonomy. Mahara e-portfolio was used during the…

Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) have been widely used to enhance math learning, wherein teacher's involvement is prominent to achieve their full potential. Usually, ITSs depend on direct interaction between the students and a computer. Recently, researchers started exploring handwritten input (e.g., from paper sheets) aiming to provide…

The objective of this study is to explore new ways of assessing collaborative problem solving (CPS) processes based on different modalities of audio data and their combination. The data collection took place in an educational lab setting during an experiment with adult teams from professional contexts who collaboratively solved multiple problems…

With an increase in interactions with non-human agents, understanding and forecasting the consequences of human interactions with them have become increasingly crucial. The present study focused on a subset of non-human agents known as virtual characters. To investigate whether people respond in the same way to a virtual character as they do to a…

Purpose: Online learning has come to stay in a technologically advancing world with increasing populations. The search for ways to make online learning more efficient and effective in some developing countries continues as the accompanying issues in developing country contexts abound. This paper explores the issues that underlie online learning…

With the increased sophistication of technology, humans have the possibility to offload a variety of tasks to algorithms. Here, we investigated whether the extent to which people are willing to offload an attentionally demanding task to an algorithm is modulated by the availability of a bonus task and by the knowledge about the algorithm's…
