An increasing number of studies has observed that immersive virtual reality (iVR) technology using head-mounted displays (HMDs) can facilitate learning outcomes. However, most studies have been exploratory and were executed in laboratory settings instead of being implemented and orchestrated in authentic teaching settings. Furthermore, iVR design…

"Self-regulated learning" (SRL) significantly impacts the process and outcome of "programming problem-solving." Studies on SRL behavioural patterns of programming students based on trace data are limited in number and lack of coverage. In this study, hence, the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) was employed to probabilistically mine…

Background/purpose: This study aims to reveal in detail the extent to which the variables in The Primary and Secondary Education Institutions Scholarship Examination (PSEISE) predict the success of students on the scholarship exam with the help of artificial neural networks (ANN). In addition, in light of the findings obtained as a result of the…

Using Judith Butler's theory of performative subjection, this paper explores the issue of digital poverty in Initial Teacher Education and the need for new forms of agency and advocacy to address it. The concept of digital agency (DA) and educational data advocacy (EDA) are discussed as possible ameliorating concepts for digital poverty and the…

Research on Mathematics Teacher Educators (MTEs) is crucial for enhancing the professional development of prospective mathematics teachers. However, there is a dearth of recent studies focusing on MTEs' preparedness for technology integration, particularly within the Zambian educational context, and the wider Sub-Saharan African region. This study…

Artificial intelligence (AI) literacy is critical to shaping students' academic experiences and future opportunities inhigher education. This study examines AI literacy among university students, examining variables such as gender, frequency of use of AI applications, completion of AI-related courses, and field of study. The research involved 664…

During the COVID19 crisis, school closure was a frequent feature of Government responses. "The Children's School Lives" (CSL) national cohort study of primary schooling in Ireland had to be adapted and transferred online as an interim response to the unprecedented impact that the pandemic had on the research environment. Adapting…

With technological advancements, the Metaverse is being used to enhance learning effects and learning experience to ensure quality education. However, current empirical studies have produced varying results. Therefore, a meta-analysis was executed, leveraging the capabilities of Version 3 of the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software to effectively…

High-volume, high-quality and diverse datasets are crucial for advancing research in the education field. However, such datasets often contain sensitive information that poses significant privacy challenges. Traditional anonymisation techniques fail to meet the privacy standards required by regulations like GDPR, prompting the need for more robust…

In the dynamic educational context of Malaysia, this study examines the impact of integrating Unplugged Activities (UA) with Block-Based Programming (BBP) on improving the computational thinking (CT) skills of secondary students in full boarding schools in Northern Peninsular Malaysia. Using a quasi-experimental design and mixed-methods analysis,…

This article explores the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) for academic advising. Specifically, it examines how AI-powered machine interpretation and data analysis can be used to deliver advising services anytime, anywhere. This system would eliminate the need for students to physically meet with advisors and could answer their…

In this study, we investigated the relationship between perceived learner control and student engagement in a blended course. Data were collected from 110 s-year bachelor students through weekly questionnaires to gather information about how they perceived their learner control and engagement in various study activities, including reading…

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for online learning has surged, driving rapid developments in online education. This technological advancement aligns with the global push to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Agenda for 2030. Despite extensive research on online learning efficacy, there is a gap in understanding…

The initial learning experience is a critical opportunity to support conceptual understanding of abstract STEM concepts. Although hands-on activities and physical three-dimensional models are beneficial, they are seldom utilized and are replaced increasingly by digital simulations and laboratory exercises presented on touchscreen tablet computers.…

This paper examines the perspectives of educators on whether internationalisation at a distance (IaD) democratises student mobility in higher education. Adopting a collaborative autoethnographic approach, the analysis focuses on the perspectives of educators involved in virtual mobility practices in relation to three prompts: (1) IaD's capacity…
