Abstract In the field of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education, which aims to cultivate problem-solving skills, accurately assessing learners' engagement remains a significant challenge. We present a solution to this issue with the Real-time Automated STEM Engagement Detection System (RASEDS). This innovative system capitalizes on the power of artificial intelligence, computer vision, and the Interactive, Constructive, Active, and Passive (ICAP) framework. RASEDS uses You Only Learn One Representation (YOLOR) to detect and map learners' interactions onto the four levels of engagement delineated in the ICAP framework. This process informs the system's recommendation of adaptive learning materials, designed to boost both engagement and self-efficacy in STEM activities. Our study affirms that RASEDS accurately gauges engagement, and that the subsequent use of these adaptive materials significantly enhances both engagement and self-efficacy. Importantly, our research suggests a connection between elevated self-efficacy and increased engagement. As learners become more engaged in their learning process, their confidence is bolstered, thereby augmenting self-efficacy. We underscore the transformative potential of AI in facilitating adaptive learning in STEM education, highlighting the symbiotic relationship between engagement and self-efficacy.
在旨在培养解决问题能力的科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)教育领域,准确评估学习者的参与程度仍然是一个重大挑战。我们提出了一种解决方案,即实时自动化STEM接合检测系统(RASEDS)。这个创新的系统利用了人工智能、计算机视觉和交互式、建设性、主动和被动(ICAP)框架的力量。RASEDS使用You Only Learn One Representation (YOLOR)来检测学习者的互动,并将其映射到ICAP框架中描述的四个参与层次。这一过程为系统推荐适应性学习材料提供了信息,旨在提高STEM活动的参与度和自我效能感。我们的研究证实,RASEDS准确地测量了投入度,随后使用这些适应性材料显著提高了投入度和自我效能感。重要的是,我们的研究表明,自我效能感的提升和参与度的提高之间存在联系。随着学习者在学习过程中变得更加投入,他们的信心得到了增强,从而增强了自我效能感。我们强调人工智能在促进STEM教育中的适应性学习方面的变革潜力,强调参与与自我效能之间的共生关系。

Abstract This study is purposed to implement and test a praxeological learning approach to enhance pre-service EFL teachers’ technological pedagogical content knowledge and online information-seeking skills. This study was conducted based on a convergent parallel mixed design involving thirty-seven sophomore pre-service EFL teachers. Multiple data collection tools were administered at the beginning and end of the course, and data were analyzed aligning with quantitative and qualitative methods complementarily. Active and decisive participation of the pre-service teachers shaped the course design following the sections of independent study, context orientation, and context-based study within the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge Framework. Findings showed that pre-service teachers’ technological pedagogical content knowledge and online information-seeking strategies of evaluation, selecting main ideas, and trial & error were significantly improved. Praxeological learning, following the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge Framework step-by-step and highlighting context-sensitivity, scaffolded pre-service teachers’ knowledge construction cumulatively and provided them with authentic learning experiences. The praxeological learning approach can support long-term motivation for technology integration knowledge and skills acquisition for pre-service teachers’ future careers.

Students’ satisfaction with online courses is considered as one of the most critical components in the continued use, as well as, adoption of e-learning applications. The study aimed at determining and analyzing the constructs that affect students’ satisfaction. It examined the effect of students’ self-efficacy and the quality of course design on students’ satisfaction, mediated by their attitudes toward online courses. The study was conducted at University of Ha’il. Responses of 202 students were used for the data analysis. The collected data was analyzed using two steps in AMOS: The proposed measurement model was developed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and the relationships were examined using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results revealed that both students’ self-efficacy and the quality of course design had a significant positive effect on students’ satisfaction, mediated by their attitudes towards online courses. The outcomes of this study can help decision-makers and policymakers in higher education take essential steps to enhance students’ satisfaction with online courses and ensure that they continue to be used.

This research aims to examine the levels of pre-service teachers' digital citizenship, digital wisdom, and digital fluency. Data were collected from 841 pre-service teachers studying at a state university. The obtained data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, MANOVA, and regression tests. As a result of the research, it is obvious that the digital fluency scores of the male teacher candidates were higher than the gender of the teacher candidates. It is evident that the common effect of the prospective teachers' classes and departments differs significantly from the effect on the digital citizenship and digital wisdom levels. A significant difference was found regarding the joint and class effects of pre-service teachers' digital fluency, digital citizenship, and digital wisdom. According to the results of the regression analysis, it was seen that the digital citizenship of the teacher candidates significantly predicted the digital fluency and digital wisdom variables. At the end of the research, recommendations regarding the findings were made.

This study aims to build a bibliometric mapping of research on web-based language instruction. By identifying the elements of author, publication, keyword, journal, country, and citation, the bibliometric mapping approach was utilized to examine trends in web-based language instruction research from an international viewpoint. The Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education has published most of the research on the topic. According to the findings, Xie H. and Zou, D. are the most pertinent writers. The most significant university is Anadolu University. The USA leads the world in terms of total publications, co-authored publications, national publications, and cited articles. Frequently used keywords include "language," "students," "education," and "technology." The authors' cluster analysis revealed that the papers are mainly divided into 5 classes. The names of the web-based teaching methods are assigned to each group. It is anticipated that this study will significantly advance future research in web-based language instruction.
