Using a Dynamic Geometry System (DGS) students can engage in a dynamic learning process that allows them to experiment, create strategies, make conjectures, argue, and deduce mathematical properties. A DGS enables the introduction of proofs, by providing visual aids. The proof of the conjectures made emerges as the next step towards formalising…

This study aims to explore the influences of self-efficacy and school climate on motivation for technology integration in education. Albert Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory was used as the theoretical framework. Outcome expectancy was used as a central motivational factor. A foundational model was constructed to explore the relationships among…

The use of digital technology has the potential to support students' understanding in the mathematics classroom with the teacher playing a vital role. However, teaching with digital technology is not trivial, especially for teachers who are new to this. In this paper, we present an analysis of the enactment of a function lesson of a Sri Lankan…

Higher education institutions have always been changing concurrently with larger societal developments. This paper addresses digital transformation in higher education (DTHE) during a disruptive crisis, e.g., the COVID-19 pandemic. Understanding different perspectives on DTHE during the pandemic is important, as the meaning allocated to the…

Despite the growing popularity of both flipped classrooms and digital manipulatives, there is a need for empirical research to examine the impact of combining these instructional strategies in the context of an Algebra 1 course (Alsaeed, 2017; Brown et al., 2001). This study is grounded in Kolb's learning cycle, the Technological Pedagogical…

This paper compares the findings from three studies--2015, 2018, and 2022--on the perceptions of preservice teachers to the integration of mobile phones in the classroom. Participants include 545 students (2015, n = 245; 2018, n = 157, 2022, n = 142) enrolled in teacher preparation programs in Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, and…

With the single descriptive case study reported on here we aimed to explore incorporating indigenous knowledge (IK) into the teaching of graphic design (GD) as a part of Grade 9 Technology lessons. Incorporating IK into GD could make the topic more meaningful -- especially for indigenous learners. The "Curriculum and Assessment Policy…

In the ever-changing sector of education, the use of technology has become critical to innovation and increased learning opportunities. This research illustrates the intricate connections that exist between augmented reality [AR] and tremendous educational attributes, thinking about how AR might modify conventional teaching approaches. The…

This study explored impact of using OrCam Learn on students' reading comprehension outcomes. In three school settings (1 independent mainstream; 1 independent dyslexia specialist; 1 state-funded mainstream), 32 students' (aged 10:01-13:07) reading comprehension was tested using the York Assessment of Reading for Comprehension (primary/secondary)…

This article dives into the reality of how, since 2023, generative artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as an inescapable force in education and highlights the work of community college faculty in use of AI in teaching and learning. ChatGPT is an example of a relatively new and rapidly evolving aspect of AI research, the large language model.…

As many sport administrators provide much of their sport content on digital platforms, it is imperative for them to be knowledgeable of Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. In the case of Price v. Escalante -- Black Diamond Golf Club LLC (2019), Joel Price claimed they were not able to access Black Diamond Golf Club, LLC…

Student modeling is central to many educational technologies as it enables predicting future learning outcomes and designing targeted instructional strategies. However, open-ended learning domains pose challenges for accurately modeling students due to the diverse behaviors and a large space of possible misconceptions. To approach these…

Research suggests that virtual reality (VR) technologies can promote learning opportunities for individuals with autism in safe and controllable training scenarios. However, substantial challenges exist concerning the development and deployment of fully immersive VR systems in real-world settings. Video-based virtual reality is an emerging…

The advancement of technology in recent years seems to be prompting a re-ontologising of the world. Digital technology is transforming the educational spaces we inhabit, as well as our way of processing information. Although there are already numerous studies that have addressed this technological reality, only a handful have done so from a…

Technology-mediated interviews are a promising supplement to in-person interviews for questioning eyewitnesses. We sought to develop and test a virtual self-administered memory-elicitation procedure--The Virtual Memory Assistance Tool (VMAT). The VMAT is a web-based memory retrieval tool designed around the principles of the Cognitive Interview.…
