Patel, Nirmal; Nagpal, Pooja; Shah, Tirth; Sharma, Aditya; Malvi, Shrey; Lomas, Derek – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Readability metrics provide us with an objective and efficient way to assess the quality of educational texts. We can use the readability measures for finding assessment items that are difficult to read for a given grade level. Hard-to-read math word problems can put some students at a disadvantage if they are behind in their literacy…

Dag, Funda; Sumuer, Evren; Durdu, Levent – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: Today, computational thinking (CT), which is considered to be a form of literacy, has taken its place in the ICT curriculum of many countries at the K-12 level. Therefore, there is a need for more evidence with regards to a theoretical and practical understanding of CT skills' development of K-12 students. Objectives: The purpose of…

Yang, Jie Chi; Kuo, Wen-Chi – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Digital game-based learning (DGBL) has been shown to be an effective strategy for promoting learning motivation. However, a lack of attention has been paid to investigating the effects of individual differences on elementary students' reading motivation and in-gaming achievements in DGBL. Objectives: This study developed an educational…

Javora, Ondrej; Hannemann, Tereza; Volná, Kristina; Dechterenko, Filip; Tetourová, Tereza; Stárková, Tereza; Brom, Cyril – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
The present study investigates affective-motivational, attention, and learning effects of unexplored emotional design manipulation: "Contextual animation" (animation of contextual elements) in multimedia learning game (MLGs) for children. Participants (N = 134; M[subscript age] = 9.25; Grades 3 and 4) learned either from an experimental…

Bullock, Emma P.; Roxburgh, Allison L.; Moyer-Packenham, Patricia S.; Bektas, Elif; Webster, Joseph S.; Bullock, Kathleen A. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
This study focused on an examination of how type, quality and children's awareness of design features in digital math games, along with an awareness of the mathematics goals of the game, were related to learning outcomes. We conducted a parallel conversion mixed methods study with 45 students in Grades 3 and 4 (ages 9-10). Students participated in…

Coleman, Mari Beth; Fowler, Kristen; Parater, Alexandra Lee; Riley, Marie Jackson; Park, Yujeong; Moore, Tara C. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Technology-assisted instruction has potential for helping students improve their reading skills. In the current studies, "PowerPoint" software was used to supplement teacher-led reading instruction for elementary-aged students with disabilities who struggled with phoneme blending to read words. The effectiveness of the intervention was…

Potocki, Anna; Chailleux, Mathilde; Gimenes, Manuel; Pylouster, Jean – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Many studies have demonstrated the crucial role of vocabulary in predicting reading performance in general. More recent work has indicated that one particular facet of vocabulary (its depth) is more closely related to language comprehension, especially inferential comprehension. On this basis, we developed a training application to specifically…

Effectiveness of Clicker-Assisted Teaching in Improving the Critical Thinking of Adolescent Learners
Ghanaat Pisheh, Etrat AlZahra; NejatyJahromy, Yaser; Gargari, Rahim Badri; Hashemi, Touraj; Fathi-Azar, Eskandar – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
The effect of the implementation of student response systems (SRSs) in teaching on the critical thinking (CT) of young students was investigated. The study benefited from a quasi-experimental design and a pretest/posttest set-up. Subjects consisted of 156 K-8 students in Tehran during 2016-2017, selected through a multistage cluster sampling, and…

Mo, D.; Zhang, L.; Wang, J.; Huang, W.; Shi, Y.; Boswell, M.; Rozelle, S. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2015
Computer assisted learning (CAL) programs have been shown to be effective in improving educational outcomes. However, the existing studies on CAL have almost all been conducted over a short period of time. There is very little evidence on how the impact evolves over time. In response, we conducted a clustered randomized experiment involving 2741…

Alcoholado, C.; Nussbaum, M.; Tagle, A.; Gomez, F.; Denardin, F.; Susaeta, H.; Villalta, M.; Toyama, K. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2012
Single Display Groupware (SDG) allows multiple people in the same physical space to interact simultaneously over a single communal display through individual input devices that work on the same machine. The aim of this paper is to show how SDG can be used to improve the way resources are used in schools, allowing students to work simultaneously on…

Looi, C.-K.; Zhang, B.; Chen, W.; Seow, P.; Chia, G.; Norris, C.; Soloway, E. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2011
This paper presents the findings of a research project in which we transformed a primary (grade) 3 science curriculum for delivery via mobile technologies, and a teacher enacted the lessons over the 2009 academic year in a class in a primary school in Singapore. The students had a total of 21 weeks of the mobilized lessons in science, which were…
