Arts-based data visualizations have been touted for making data and data visualization practices more accessible, engaging, and empowering. Though initial research suggests the potential of such approaches in educational contexts, little research has focused on professional development that might support teachers in developing and implementing…

Constructing mathematical proofs is a fundamental yet challenging skill in secondary school geometry. While technology has been used to scaffold different aspects of the proving process, existing approaches often separate inquiry and conjecturing from formal proof or focus on structural and technical assistance without addressing students' initial…

This study follows a study that researchers conducted at the beginning of the fall 2024 semester to investigate the first-day impacts of using an updated, visually stimulating syllabus on conveying essential course information and on initial perceptions of teachers. Findings indicated that students perceived the syllabus as easier to understand…

Virtual Periodic Table (VPT) is an effective software tool to present elements in a conceivable three-dimensional (3D) mode. VPT is used to assist users in their learning before performing any hands-on activities in chemistry laboratory. Various VPTs have been developed for enhancing the learning process of chemistry education. Different types of…

Maps have been used for centuries to depict the diverse facets of our environment. Thematic maps depict a specific theme and help in revealing geospatial patterns and relations. The study and practice of map making has led to established cartographic design rules. Ever increasing availability of high-quality geospatial data coupled with…

While integrated delivery of anatomy and radiology can support undergraduate anatomical education, the interpretation of complex three-dimensional spatial relationships in cross-sectional and radiological images is likely to be demanding for novices. Due to the value of technology-enhanced and multimodal strategies, it was hypothesized that…

In this study, the usability of images generated by artificial intelligence (AI) in education was attempted to be determined. For this purpose, the DALL·E AI tool developed by OpenAI was used. This research aims to determine the usability of images generated by artificial intelligence in education and the qualitative research design was used.…

The purpose of this study was to examine the leisure and recreation opportunities available in community apartments for adults with intellectual disability (ID), and their association with leisure participation. The study included 38 adults with ID with moderate levels of impairment residing in 19 apartments. Apartment coordinators reported on…

This article explores how arguments are made in student essays through the use of writing and visual resources. The data set comprises 54 essays with a passing grade from students in their final year of upper secondary school in Sweden. The data is analysed using a multimodal approach to knowledge representation on arguments in essays, involving…

Visual representation in school textbooks plays an important role for physics teaching and learning. The integration of graphics with text has drawn attention of physics educators in recent years due to the close relationship between graphics and relevant text. The purpose of this study is to examine visual representation of optical content in…

We introduce biology to the artist's design tool, the storyboard. This versatile organizing and visualizing artistic platform is introduced into the biology classroom to aid in an inventive and focused discovery process. Almost all biological concepts are dynamic, and storyboards offer biology, lecture, wet and computational labs, flexibility,…

This study aims to use the bibliometric analysis method to examine the scientific articles published between 2000-2022 in the field of Arabic Language Teaching (ALT) and to visualize the obtained data with visual mapping technique. The dataset consists of 861 educational research articles indexed in the "Web of Science" database and…
