Purpose: Describe the development and utilization of the Self-paced Nutrition Activity on Choices for Knowledge (S.N.A.C.K.)…

E-learning has been widely used in higher education as it provides better access to learning resources online, utilising technology to enhance learning. Despite growing evidence claiming that e-learning is as effective as traditional means of learning, the evidence is still very limited. This protocol aims to measure the impact of e-learning as…

College English teachers' pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) is subject to change in the transition from the teaching of General English (GE) to that of English for Academic Purposes (EAP). Underpinned by Grossman's four-dimensional model of PCK, this study aims to investigate the trajectory of PCK development among college English teachers…

Considering the individual differences in previous content knowledge, skill, and attitude, which types of learners are suitable for AR is a valuable but complex question. The study used quasi-experimental design, and divided 97 10th-grade students into two groups: traditional group (N = 48) and AR group (N = 49), who participated in 4-week organic…

Following the recent developments in information and communication technologies (ICT), educators cannot opt-out using technology in educational settings.
