Digital transformation in schools involves the use of digital data to inform teachers' pedagogical decisions. Previous research indicates that a deeper understanding of the factors influencing teacher utilization of learning analytics and a comprehensive school context analysis is required. In this article, we conducted a survey study with N =…

Purpose: Existing literature has reported a barrier list that could affect the implementation of digital transformation in higher education, yet the research question of how to identify barriers remained unanswered. Thus, this study intended to address this gap. Design/methodology/approach: The research design adopted a mixed-methods approach…

Universities focus on digital transformation strategy to stay competitive in global education, staying competitive is taking on quite a different meaning in the 21st century -- it includes the long-term implications of COVID-19 -- the interaction of politics and economics, the emergence of China as a superpower, the end of neoliberalism, the…

The aim of the current study was to explore science teachers' perceptions of the nature of technology through the use of Q methodology. 17 science teachers were sampled as participants, and to explore their perceptions of the nature of technology, they ranked a Q-sort of 36 statements that constituted the following six categories: (i) definition…

Education and training activities have utilized many technologies including extended reality. This generic qualitative inquiry study looks at the lessons learned from implementing extended reality in education and training with the intent of identifying what areas should be looked at that will assist in implementing this advanced technology that…

We developed a paper for the 2016 ASCUE Conference with the topic of software tools to use in the classroom. As mentioned in the original paper, our Computer and Information Technology Department (CIT) curriculum at Purdue University statewide locations includes classes in database, networking, programming and systems areas. Most of these classes…
