Prospective memory (PM) refers to our ability to remember to complete future actions. One common everyday PM task that requires further attention is our ability to remember to attend scheduled appointments. The present study focused on appointment attendance as a naturalistic time-based PM task and examined metacognitive factors associated with…

This essay is a plea to art educators in what is a global climate in a "permacrisis" both politically and physically. This is a deliberate and persuasive provocation to reorientate art education to avoid a reiteration that is taking place when the 20th and 21st centuries are compared in relation to the striking changes that are taking…

With ubiquitous computing, problems can be solved using more strategies than ever, though many strategies feature subpar performance. Here, we explored whether and how simple advice regarding when to use which strategy can improve performance. Specifically, we presented unfamiliar alphanumeric equations (e.g., A + 5 = F) and asked whether counting…

Generative AIs have been embraced by learners wishing to offload (parts of) complex tasks. However, recent research suggests that AI users are at risk of failing to correctly monitor the extent of their own contribution when being assisted by an AI. This difficulty in keeping track of the division of labor has been shown to result in placebo and…

The digital revolution has greatly influenced communication, meaning a current, analytical examination of changing literacy skills is needed. Becoming literate in today's world requires an understanding of traditional and electronic messaging venues in order for communications to not be misled by unrecognized influences. This book examines changes…

In recent years, machine learning (ML) techniques have received more attention in detecting aberrant test-taking behaviors due to advantages when compared to traditional data forensics methods. However, defining "True Test Cheaters" is challenging--different than other fraud detection tasks such as flagging forged bank checks or credit…

Over 20 years after introducing and popularizing agile software development methods, those methods have proven effective in delivering projects that meet agile assumptions. Those assumptions require that projects be small and simple in scope and utilize small, colocated teams. Given this success, many agile advocates argue that agile should…

In this study, the aim is to elucidate the relationship between digital technologies and the concept of leisure time. Digital leisure time can be defined as the time spent by individuals using digital tools and platforms for entertainment, recreation, acquiring knowledge, communication, socialization, and escaping from a negative mood state during…

The application of information technology is ubiquitous in our work and learning, and information technology causes tremendous changes to workplace learning. This systematic review aims to summarize the roles and impacts of information technology on workplace learning. This study is guided by the following three research questions: What are the…

For educational institutions in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) areas, the provision of practical learning scenarios is, traditionally, a major concern. In the 21st century, the explosion of information and communication technology (ICTs), as well as the universalization of low-cost hardware, has allowed the proliferation…

Entity Resolution (ER) has been one of the bedrocks in the creation of information systems by ensuring ambiguous entities are identified and resolved by linking. One common design approach of traditional ER systems is to run in single-threaded mode, which makes the system prone to out-of-memory error when processing larger datasets. The Data…

The adaptation of traditional systems to service-oriented architectures is very frequent, due to the increase in technologies for this type of architecture. This has led to the construction of frameworks or methodologies for adapting computational projects to service-oriented architecture (SOA) technology. In this work, a framework for adaptation…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to scrutinise individual learning strategies in their workplace when they were experiencing digital innovation. Moreover, the respective enablers and challenges of each category of strategies were explored to conceptualise supporting features needed in the digital learning environment.…

After the Cold War period, with the restructuring of the world, globalization, the revolution in information technology and the reconstruction of capitalism have created a new type of society, the "network society". The dependence of countries on information technologies, especially the internet, has increased day by day, and it has…

Various technological devices, especially information communications technologies (ICTs), have become increasingly remarkable in higher education to help develop students' skills and qualifications. Considering this trend, supported by several academic theories, this paper proposes a breakthrough guidebook for universities and other scholastic…
