The purpose of this research was to explore students' problem-solving skills through inquiry-based learning with PhET simulation, focussed on direct current electricity matter. The research used a mixed method approach with an embedded experimental model with 34 prospective physics teacher at the State University of Jambi, Indonesia. The data was…

Context: Health care education needs to include methods of teaching and evaluation that are realistic and mimic patient care. Objective: To follow up on previous research regarding the methods athletic training educators use to evaluate and teach athletic training students' clinical skills during clinical experiences and in the…

Concept of augmented reality (AR) has been attracting the attention of researchers due to its feature of combining physical environment of students and digital presentation materials and offering them to users. AR applications have made a great impression among scientists working in a wide range of fields from engineering sciences to social…

Virtual communities of Practice (VCoP) offer a flexible option for professional development that may be employed by geographically dispersed communities. Due to unique and dynamic operational demands and a reduced training budget, the United States Coast Guard's (USCG) afloat community has limited opportunity for formal professional development,…

Producing competent graduate advanced practice nurses who will be able to function in the current healthcare environment requires a quality education with the development of critical thinking through experiential learning. Simulation in undergraduate education has been extensively studied and shown to enhance the quality of nursing education. The…

Gestures have been shown to play a key role in mathematical reasoning and be an indicator that mathematical reasoning is "embodied" -- inexorably linked to action, perception, and the physical body. Theories of extended cognition accentuate looking beyond the body and mind of an individual, thus here we examine how gestural embodied…

This work is a step towards full automation of auto-mentoring processes in multi-player online environments such as virtual internships. We focus on automatically identifying speaker's intentions, i.e. the speech acts of chat utterances, in such virtual internships. Particularly, we explore several machine learning methods to categorize speech…

The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand, from the perspective of students with disabilities, what special education leaders and their respective classroom educators should consider in the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) features and tools to support individualized instruction. This study utilized an immersive and…

Internationally, the practicum is a cornerstone of initial teacher education in preparing pre-service teachers to enter the teaching profession. This edited collection expands theory and research in pedagogies of practicum by examining different ways teacher education programs across the globe experienced, modified, and innovated the practicum in…

Bringing together the research of leading international scholars in the field of digital learning, "Designing Effective Digital Learning Environments" discusses cutting-edge advancements in digital technology and presents an evidence-informed summary of best practices for effective design principles and implementation within educational…

Graduates of international business (IB) programs are facing a complex dynamic world in which they need both specific and generalist knowledge they can activate in socially negotiated situations. Their competencies must go beyond narrowly applying knowledge, which requires open minds, transferable social competencies, and skills for crossing…

This paper presents a fully online course model for teaching speaking and listening skills for students learning Arabic as a foreign language at the International Peace College South Africa on the NEO learning management platform. It also investigates the students' attitudes towards the course. The course was developed by the researcher during the…

This study aimed to develop teacher guide material for students who are uninterested in physics lessons in high schools. In this context, activities in which measurements are made with Logger Pro sensors, which are computer-applied with the innovative technology in 10th-grade optics subjects, have been developed. The study was carried out with 134…

In this paper, we present and discuss an explorative study on the use of a social 360° virtual reality (360VR) for supporting case-based Problem Based Learning (case-PBL) in clinical medical education. In the context of case-PBL, we argue that our social 360VR learning space extends the design and application of cases in medical education by…

As classrooms become more diverse and inclusive, classroom management is a consistent issue that new teachers, in particular, special education teachers report being ill-prepared for. The enactment of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015) and continued punishment referral patterns have given rise to concerns regarding the overuse of…
