The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare and research introduces sophisticated diagnostic and treatment capabilities but also raises significant ethical challenges from development to deployment and evaluation, requiring comprehensive ethical training and interdisciplinary collaboration to ensure the responsible use of AI…

Background: This study investigates the effect of immersion levels in virtual reality (VR) learning environments on the acquisition of declarative and procedural knowledge. Prior research indicates that immersion affects cognitive load, but its impact on declarative and procedural knowledge outcomes remains unclear. This study utilises a…

Background: The study was motivated by the need to enhance children's literacy skills through innovative teaching methods. This research aims to address limitations in regular classroom teaching by exploring embodied learning and virtual reality (VR) as potential solutions. Objectives: The primary aim of the study was to investigate the effects of…

Virtual Labs (vLabs) have been gaining popularity in high school and undergraduate education, but there are few studies looking at their use in graduate-level courses. In this study, we investigated the use of six Labster vLabs assigned as homework in a graduate-level in-person Genomic Methodologies course at the University of Toronto. This course…

Background: Providing students with information on their current performance could help them improve by stimulating their reflection, but negative feedback that saliently mirrors task-related failure can harm motivation. In the context of automated scoring based on artificial intelligence, we explored how feedback on written texts might be…

This report reviews leading AI literacy frameworks through the lens of WCET's Policy and Practice Framework. Analyzing 50+ resources and highlighting three key frameworks, it offers actionable insights across the dimensions of AI governance, operations, and pedagogy. Rather than recommending a single model, it advocates for remixing openly…

Virtual reality (VR) technology has emerged as a promising educational tool in medical training, offering immersive learning experiences that address traditional limitations in medical education. However, comprehensive evidence regarding VR's overall effectiveness across diverse medical education contexts remains fragmented. To systematically…

As technology becomes increasingly integrated into educational settings, computer-assisted translation (CAT) tools are gaining recognition as valuable aids in language learning. This study introduces "Termsoup", a CAT application, as a tool to support learners in bridging the gap between disciplines or subject areas within English for…

The study investigated the structural equation modelling of nine variables consisting of research undertaking, digi-tech construct (digital nativity, category of adoption of digital technologies, digital literacy, digital citizenship, statistical software anxiety, self-efficacy and knowledge) and researcher statistical software skills in the…

In the evolving landscape of vocal pedagogy, ttehe integration of computer-assisted technologies represents a transformative shift from traditional master-apprentice models. This study investigates the efficacy of computer-assisted vocal training methods compared to conventional approaches, focusing on improvements in pitch accuracy, vocal range…

In this paper, we identify the use of Digital Storytelling (DS) as a mode of pedagogy aligned with an ethics of care. We consider how DS, as summative assessment, may foreground care ethics such as attentiveness, responsiveness, and trust. Our interest in this topic stems from our concern over the impact on staff and students of the massification…

Autistic children have significant difficulties in recognizing and labeling emotions, difficulties which may hinder the natural development of their ability to express and regulate further emotions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an augmented reality emotion recognition program (ARERP) delivered in a group format on the…

Interactions among students in online learning environments are difficult to monitor but can be crucial for their academic performance. Moodle is one of the best and most popular online learning platforms, where its log records can reveal important information on students' engagement and the respective performance. This study examines the degree…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of higher education, the clarity, measurability, and alignment of course objectives are more critical than ever. Effective course design hinges on well-defined learning objectives that guide both instruction and assessment. However, creating these objectives can be a daunting task for faculty, especially when…

Amid the growing interest in generative AI technologies like ChatGPT for educational purposes, this research seeks to better understand Chinese EFL learners' acceptance and usage of them for L2 writing purposes. This study conducts an investigation by establishing a structural equation model that incorporates the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM)…
