Learning activities related to students' real-life experiences may create meaningful learning. Integrating traditional games into the physics classroom can reconstruct local knowledge into scientific knowledge. The use of technology can affect student learning achievement. One of the technologies currently attracting attention is Augmented reality…

Background: Electric circuit concepts in physics are abstract in nature and students find it difficult to comprehend. Purpose: This study was designed to compare the impact of three different strategies: simulation, hands-on and a combined strategy in enhancing conceptual understanding on electric circuit for class X students. Design: A mixed…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of using a jigsaw learning strategy integrated with computer simulation (JLSICS) on the academic achievement and attitudes of students, along with exploring the relationships between them in the process of learning about acids and bases. Design/methodology/approach: The research…

This study investigated student engagement and focused attention in three co-creation environments (a paper-based environment, the 2D Jamboard platform, and the CoSpaces virtual reality (VR) platform). The study utilized a quasi-experimental research design with a total of 66 tenth-grade students including 34 males (52%) and 32 females (48%) from…

Background: As adequate support, virtual reality (VR) has been increasingly introduced into the classroom to help students learn a new language. However, empirical studies exploring the educational potential of using 360° spherical video-based virtual reality (SVVR) in high-school Chinese language classrooms are still lacking. Objectives: A mind…

Now days, the level of students' engagement in secondary school chemistry is low. The aim of this study was then to enhance student chemistry engagement through simulation-integrated 7E context-based instructional strategy and compared its efficacy with 7E context-based instructional strategy, simulation-integrated conventional teaching approach,…

This study is based on assessing the potential of augmented reality (AR) and infographics in science learning, emphasizing the synergistic effect on improving learning. The study investigates the impact of the combination of AR and infographic design on learning biology. Seventy-five 10th grade male students participated in this study, which…

Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is one of the most important learning strategies. Augmented Reality (AR) is an effective way to support this strategy, which is considered conducive to enhance academic achievements of students during IBL. This paper investigated teacher-student interactions during AR-supported IBL by comparison and case study. First,…

Participatory based methodologies, like the funds of identity approach, often employ arts-based methods and graphic elicitation as a complement to the traditional autobiographical interview. The funds of identity approach addresses deficit discourses that position disadvantaged learners as problematic by encouraging teachers to construct…

The purpose of this study was to examine whether a simulation-integrated context-based 7E instructional strategy (SICBIS) could increase students' achievement in the chemistry of oxides, acids, bases, and salts (COABS) when compared to context-based 7E instructional strategy (CBIS), simulation-integrated conventional teaching approach (SICTA), and…

Logical thinking and reasoning of geometric space are among the key abilities of science and technology education. This research developed a framework of an alternate reality-based board game incorporating augmented reality (AR) exploration with multi-dimensional scaffolding, including "cognitive scaffolding," "metacognitive…

Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) has become an essential issue for schools facing major challenges such as bridging the knowledge-action-gap. Interactive simulations could help to focus on action-oriented learning. As part of a design-based research (DBR) process, we investigated the learning potential of game elements within a digital…

In this study that aims to motivate struggling students and helping them to improve their learning achievement, we designed and tested an E7-based approach in a virtual laboratory environment. We rely on cognitive load theory and self-determination theory to enable our approach to meet the cognitive and noncognitive needs of struggling students.…

This study is aimed to investigate the effectiveness of problem-based learning combined with simulation on students' problem-solving and creative thinking skills. By employing a quasi-experimental design, this study used essay and problem-based tests as the instruments to evaluate problem-solving and creative thinking skills of 192 students. These…

Due to the challenges of the new era teachers enrich their teaching approaches with the implementation of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) tools. Worldwide literature provides solid evidence underlying the potential of technology for supporting everyday teaching practice, providing an interactive teaching and learning environment.…
