This paper shows how the freely downloadable software package called "SMath Studio" can be used to solve the time-independent Schrödinger equation using a simple step-wise approximation. The solution is illustrated with reference to the hydrogen atom for which trial eigenvalues are supplied by the energy level formula of the Bohr atom.

Adolescents need help locating and evaluating information about immigration that reflects a panoply of views -- particularly views that have been ignored in traditional texts. The purpose of this study was to gain insight into adolescents' engagement with online texts on the topic of immigration and associated concepts as they worked to develop…

The present technology report is aimed at demonstrating how the implementation of VR chemistry simulations of atomic structure enhances learning among students. MEL Chemistry VR lessons were incorporated into the classroom for 43 first-year undergraduate ITMO University students. The visualization techniques provided the learners with two…

Background: There is an increasing number of technological resources available to speech and language therapists (SLTs) for use in clinical practice, but the factors that influence SLTs' selection and use of such resources are not well understood. In related fields, technology acceptance models have been employed to explain users' adoption of…

This research, to design and develop a concept map authoring support tool, adopts a semi-automatic concept mapping approach to help teachers create concept maps from English readings. A concept map is widely regarded as a useful teaching and learning tool. It offers many potential advantages apart from representing the students' knowledge and…

The rapid technological developments associated with the decrease in the cost of smartphones made the latter more accessible and convenient to be used. In an educational setting, students are increasingly bringing their smartphones to classrooms, this could have serious security implications, particularly when students are less aware of smartphone…

Clicking, posting and scrolling are not the only purpose of social media. Social media has become multipurpose forum for the people. In the educational sector, the use of social media as interactive tools which motivate students towards learning. The aim of this research is to investigate the impact of social media on students' learning in Iqra…

In this article, we report on the experience of implementing a virtual laboratory complex used in a general physics course, studied by students of technical and natural science specializations at Ural Federal University. We consider the possible use of virtual labs in three directions: in-person classes in the laboratory, conducting in a remote…

The presence of other people, whether real or implied, can have a profound impact on our behaviour. However, it is argued that autistic individuals show decreased interest in social phenomena, which leads to an absence of these effects. In this study, the agency of a cue was manipulated such that the cue was either described as representing a…

Information and communication technology (ICT) is an important element to improve teaching-learning practices. This paper is aimed to determine the barriers affecting the implementation of ICT in Ethiopian higher learning institutions by adapting the information system theory (i.e. Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) framework). The study…

The aim of this study is to examine mediations of parents who make digital games played by 60-72 months old children accessible, and the contents of the digital games played by children educationally. In this research the convergent parallel mixed research method that include both qualitative and quantitative research methods was used. The study…

Nowadays, AI is a real springboard for finding solutions to optimize and improve learning and teaching processes. This issue has been a focus of humanity for millennia, and very significant advances have been made in this quest. This article aims to address the issue of optimizing and improving learning and teaching processes through AI…

The experimental investigation of Newton's law of universal gravitation requires expensive and sensitive equipment. Therefore, it is often not possible to conduct such an experiment within a typical physics class. An alternative is to investigate the universal gravitation law by using simulations. In this paper, we are presenting such an augmented…

This study presents the results of two studies using a virtual reality (VR) public-speaking training simulation as an instructional aid in a basic communication course. Results from the first study suggest that VR practice was associated with higher subsequent speech delivery grades in the course compared to no practice. However, VR practice did…

The instructional effects of customization features in child learning games have rarely been examined. This value-added study addresses the existing gap with regards to user-initiated cosmetic customization of environment elements (i.e., non-avatar customization). Participants (N = 143; M[subscript age] = 9.41) studied a biological topic for about…
