As online learning platforms become more popular and deeply integrated into education, understanding their effectiveness and what drives that effectiveness becomes increasingly important. While there is extensive prior research illustrating the benefits of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) for student learning, there is comparatively less focus…

Contemporary education in Sweden is characterized by two parallel processes: the implementation of digital tools in the classroom, on the one hand, and an increased emphasis on brain-based learning, on the other. Proponents of the latter strand of 'neuroeducation' claim that digital media might have harmful effects on learning and cognitive…

This study examines Thailand's educational knowledge system, analyzing its structural characteristics, challenges, and opportunities for development. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research combined survey data from 195 faculty members, in-depth interviews with 30 experts, and analysis of institutional research outputs from 2016-2021. The…

Background: Formative assessments build a positive learning environment and provide feedback to enhance learning. This study examined the impact of online formative and low-stake summative assessments on medical students' learning outcomes in the Clinically Oriented Anatomy course from 2016 to 2020. We aimed to demonstrate that formative…

The research analyzes opportunities of current trends in the educational sphere at the global level formed under the influence of the achievements of the fourth industrial revolution and contemporary force majeure factors (the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions). The research methodology explains why lifelong learning technologies are…

This research focuses on the educational system of Kyrgyzstan to identify promising areas of development with the inclusion of advanced digital technologies in the educational process. To achieve this purpose, the authors used an integrated approach, including access to the analysis of official data on the educational system, a review of…

Concerns over students engaging in various forms of academic misconduct persist, especially with the post-COVID-19 rise in online learning and assessment. Research has demonstrated a clear role of the personality trait psychopathy in cheating, yet little is known about why this relationship exists. Building on the research by Curtis et al.…

This paper argues that generative AI has become ubiquitous in academia, making irrelevant the debates about whether or not to allow it. Instead, the author advocates for transparency and accountability frameworks that acknowledge AI's presence while preserving academic integrity. The paper examines the challenges educators face: unreliable…

Background: Attention has been paid to collaboration in digital game-based learning, as it fosters interaction and student engagement, thereby enhancing learning outcomes. Previous findings about the effect of collaboration in digital game-based learning were inconsistent, and few studies have explored the underlying mechanisms, particularly…

Background: In multimedia learning environments, pedagogical agents have emerged as an innovative tool to enhance digital instruction, yet optimising their design for maximal learning effectiveness remains underexplored. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate how specific design elements of pedagogical agents, namely appearance and voice…

Present study investigates the motives that pre-service computer education and instructional technologies (CEIT) teachers employ while deciding on the level, type, way of engagement with and the length of YouTube videos that they watch. The investigation is based on the various demographic variables such as gender and content creation status.…

Synchrony, or the timing of information as it is exchanged between participants, has garnered increasing study in online learning. Within this domain is bichronous online learning (BOL), the blending of asynchronous and synchronous elements within one learning environment. Some research has identified mobile instant messaging as quasi-synchronous…

Digital adoption has increasingly been seen as a key driver for accelerating human development. However, contextual factors affect digital adoption in a particular geographical setting. These factors have gendered differences due to systemic patriarchy and social stereotypes. There is limited scholarship on identifying such factors and gender…
