Digital media is increasingly finding its way into the discussions of the classroom. Particularly interest is placed on mobile learning—the learning and teaching practices done with or via different mobile devices. Learning with the help of mobile devices is increasingly common and it is considered to be one of the 21 century skills children should adapt already in early stages in schools. The ...

It has become many English educators’ common view as well as spontaneous action to implement multimedia-assisted foreign language teaching. It is the advanced media technology that has changed the former teaching pattern. However, will such a teaching pattern achieve success? Under new circumstances, multimedia foreign language teaching seems a challenge for teachers. Only with innovative educa...

This study investigates the impact of computer assisted instructions on learning effectiveness in computer aided design and manufacturing modules which are integral to mechanical engineering related courses. These courses require learners to understand and know the basics of design and manufacturing processes as well as use specialist software and CNCmachines. Use of computer assisted instructi...

Mobile devices such as notebooks and PDAs are very interesting tools for web-based teaching and distant teaching today. We have adapted Web-based remote laboratory environments to mobile devices like PDAs and smartphones to remotely control a Pioneer 3 AT mobile robot.

the development of the information and communication technology is considered as an effective step that has considerably changed in the educational goals, plans, and teaching procedures and improved educational effectiveness.  introducing ‘the software for assessing and teaching core vocabularies to non-persian speakers’, the present study aims to accentuate the role of technology in the educat...

The ability to automatically locate sensor nodes is essential in many Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) applications. To reduce the number of beacons, many mobile-assisted approaches have been proposed. Current mobile-assisted approaches for localization require special hardware or belong to centralized localization algorithms involving some deterministic approaches due to the fact that they explic...

The assessment of the efficacy of devised MobileAssisted Instructional Modes in Mobile Learning was the focus of this research. The study adopted pre-test, post-test, control group quasi-experimental design. Research instruments were developed, validated and used for collecting data. Findings revealed that the students exposed to Mobile Task Based Learning Mode (MTBLM) in using Mobile-Assisted ...

BACKGROUND Nursing home and home care nursing staff must increasingly deal with palliative care challenges, due to cost cutting in specialized health care. Research indicates that a significant number of dying patients long for adequate spiritual and existential care. Several studies show that this is often a source of anxiety for care workers. Teaching care workers to alleviate dying patients'...

Over the last decade, language learning with digital technology in general, and mobile particular, has received significant attention both research practice. This is mostly attributed to learning-enabling aspects of mobile-assisted (MALL) on one hand, rapid development hardware (mobile devices) software applications) other. MALL offers opportunity use devices for not only within confines classr...

Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) has emerged as an important domain since mobile devices are widely used by the current generation of learners. This study emphasizes that successful implementation MALL for language education relies heavily on its acceptance teachers. intends to investigate using teaching English among college EFL teachers in China. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM),...
