Scaffolds can be seen as a suitable tool to support students' learning chemistry. Digital task navigators, written scaffolds that support students in solving tasks in organic chemistry, were developed, used, and evaluated for this study. A paper task navigator was further developed into a digital task navigator, which included links to…

This study used a convergent mixed-methods to assess how well behavioral beliefs, normative beliefs, and control beliefs predict the use of technology within developmental mathematics courses. The Theory of Planned Behavior provided the theoretical framework for this study. The sample consisted of developmental mathematics instructors from across…

Spatial geometry is one of the multi-purpose fields of mathematics and is tightly linked to the development of mathematical and intellectual thinking. Spatial thinking is necessary in various areas of life such as civil engineering, mechanical engineering, interior design, graphic design and other. At present, teaching spatial geometry is mainly…

One of the most persuasive technologies in developing universities' smart campus applications is the Internet of Things (IoT) technique. Deploying thousands of readily available devices connected to IoT systems by ignoring device vulnerabilities and threat strategies in smart campus infrastructure is exacerbating security challenges. Moreover,…

The National Academies Global Forum on Innovation in Health Professional Education hosted a multi-day workshop series in March and April 2023 to explore the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in health professions education. Speakers at the workshops provided background on AI; discussed the social, cultural, policy, legal, and regulatory…

In online education, it is extremely important to achieve the targeted learning outcomes and to create an effective learning environment. This requires an interactive learning environment with a sense of learning community, personalised learning opportunities, well-designed instructional content that makes effective use of visuals, sounds and…

The emergence of immersive digital technologies, such as shared Augmented Reality (shAR), Virtual Reality (VR) and Motion Capture (MC) offers promising new opportunities to advance our understanding of human cognition and design innovative technology-enhanced learning experiences. Theoretical frameworks for embodied and extended cognition can…

Embodied cognition has recently gained increasing attention in mathematics education research. However, little is known about ways to use an embodied approach to reach for mathematical abstraction. In this study, we investigate this topic for the case of functional thinking (FT) using digital technology (DT) through a systematic literature study.…

Cloud computing service has been found to be effective in increasing the capacity of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) since it delivers services through enhanced information technology capabilities. Quality of Service (QoS) in cloud service is considered a rapidly growing phenomenon to guarantee a high level of service and is identified as an…

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the change in the conceptual understanding of "artificial intelligence". For this purpose, the determination of the metaphors related to the concept of artificial intelligence in the stages before and after watching the artificial intelligence-themed computer-aided animation developed within the…

Teacher education programs recognize the impact of technology's rise on the process of learning to teach. Prior studies have examined both the effectiveness of specific digital tools and contextual factors in shaping preservice teachers' technology use in classrooms (focusing largely on teacher educators' technology selections, the locations and…

In secondary technology education, models of artifacts, systems and processes, visualized and simulated through digital tools (digital models) are a relatively new element. Technology teachers teach digital models to meet syllabus criteria of digital competence, applicable to for instance problem solving and documentation using digital tools.…

Purpose: The study explores techno-work engagement, which is a positive and fulfilling state of well-being with respect to the use of digital technology at work. It provides insight into the circumstances in which the educational use of ICT enhances work well-being. Design/methodology/approach: A total of 60 Finns from the education sector wrote…

The advancements of technology have allowed digital transformation to reach all productive sectors, including the education sector and its members. This transformation is linked to emerging technologies, the digitalization of processes and resources, and the demand for users to upgrade to the latest technological updates. This research aims to…

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely adopted in higher education. However, the current research on AI in higher education is limited, lacking both breadth and depth. In the present study, we addressed this research gap by exploring students' perception of learning in AI-related courses facilitated by an open experiential AI platform.…
