This study investigated the possible factors that predict e-learning integration into the teaching and learning of science subjects among preservice science teachers. A unified e-learning integration model was developed in which factors such as attitude, intention, skill and flow experience served as precursors of e-learning integration. This was…

Aim/Purpose: The aim of this study is to propose and test a model in which perceived barriers to technology integration are handled within a broad framework. It can be argued that the proposed model will have the dynamics to examine the studies performed on technology integration in a generic way and to have an important place in explaining the…

The growing popularity of mobile technologies in educational settings, from grade schools through college, has prompted science educators to prepare preservice teachers to successfully integrate technology into science teaching. This mixed-methods study explores the effectiveness of a mobile technology-based physics curriculum, Exploring Physics,…

The question, "how does the UTAUT variables (Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence and Facilitating Conditions) influence mathematics teachers' acceptance of ICT integration?" was investigated, using the four constructs of the UTAUT framework. The four constructs were hypothesised to influence teachers' use of ICTs…

Having a higher level of digital literacy can contribute to students' better outcomes in first-year composition. However, some underprepared and financially disenfranchised students may not have digital literacy skills nor own a portable computing device, such as a tablet, to engage their coursework. This three-year, mixed methods study of 292…

If used appropriately in schools, youth fitness testing can play a significant role in promoting a physically active lifestyle among school-age children. Unfortunately, many issues exist when testing students' health-related fitness (HRF) components, such as privacy concerns, misuse of testing results, and time-consuming test procedures. This…

The use of augmented reality (AR) in vocational education and training can still be considered as being in its infancy, although interest in it is growing in response both to its potential for teaching and its adoption as a practical tool in various industry sectors. One example of early-stage AR use is illustrated from a practicum for training…

Preservice teachers' beliefs and attitudes impact the likelihood they will integrate technology in their future teaching. Consequently teacher preparation programs should provide courses designed to enhance preservice teachers' attitudes and beliefs towards technology use in the classroom. However, many programs instead focusing solely on…

In today's multimodal landscape, coding has a space in the elementary literacy curriculum. Coding and literacy have many parallels, which are described in further detail. The author also explains why coding should be integrated into the primary grades and the steps that teachers can take to implement coding in the literacy curriculum. The free app…

A focus of learning analytics research has been the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data from online academic technologies, particularly in higher education where these technologies are incorporated extensively into the student learning experience. In particular, the learning management system (LMS) has emerged as a technology…

"In some ways, shouldn't we always be teaching from a distance?" Paul France asks this not as pitch for distance learning. But because part of the reason distance learning has been so challenging, Paul asserts, is that we're replicating long-standing practices that promote "dependent learning" in our students. Why not use this…

Integrated classrooms and 1:1 initiatives are growing in popularity and maturity. Each year, new school- and district-wide 1:1 initiatives launch. Even if schools are not yet a 1:1 environment, teachers and students likely incorporate and encounter more technology with each passing semester. While new initiatives launch each year, the first wave…

The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to assess if and to what extent effort expectancy, performance expectancy, social influence and facilitating conditions were related to behavioral intention to accept an app for anticoagulation management among providers, mid-level providers and nursing staff in a Department of Public Health…

This qualitative study examined the effects of a coaching program as part of a professional development effort to support integration of mobile technologies in a hospital school setting. The professional development consisted of two components: (a) the researchers introduced pedagogical models for incorporating mobile technology in education and…

The mix of technologies used in postsecondary instruction has become increasingly more varied, and information with students about instructional experiences can be confusing. Building upon on a series of WCET works over the past year on digital learning definitions, this paper presents several complex cases, based on real-world examples, where the…
