Background: Despite being an important aspect of effective early intervention service delivery, 'engagement' has been inconsistently defined in paediatric healthcare. Previous research has identified that engagement in early speech-language pathology intervention is complex and multifaceted. However, more research is needed to understand the ways…

Teachers must be able to monitor students' behavior and identify valid cues in order to draw conclusions about students' actual engagement in learning activities. Teacher training can support (inexperienced) teachers in developing these skills by using videotaped teaching to highlight which indicators should be considered. However, this supposes…

Although serious games are generally praised by scholars for their potential to enhance teaching and e-learning practices, more empirical evidence is needed to support these accolades. Existing research in this area tends to show that gamified teaching experiences do contribute to significant effects to improve student cognitive, motivational, and…
