The Digital Learning Across Boundaries: Developing Changemakers (DLAB) project uses immersive technologies in education to explore three challenges across three years: physical, personal and environmental. This paper focuses on the first of these, bringing together the themes of digital making and changemaking to cross physical boundaries by raising awareness about physical inactivity in 11 and 12 year old school pupils. Immersive technologies such as augmented and virtual reality enabled the development of empathy and intercultural understanding among participants, fostered an understanding of changemaking, and created environments for sharing prototype exergames. Research data is analysed to seek evidence of the development of changemaker attributes and impact within a sample group of 60 English school pupils.

Numerous studies have confirmed that gamification develops favorable scenarios for student learning by encouraging student involvement and promoting a more active role. Starting from this premise, in this article we describe an experience we developed with first-grade teacher- training students to find a learning environment that will encourage student involvement in the construction of learning in a challenging and stimulating way. Other aims of this experience are to enable students to face awkward situations responsibly, work on their social and communica- tion skills, and employ critical, creative and contextualized thinking. To evaluate the success of this experience, after its implementation we analyzed the results by comparing responses from parti- cipating students with those from a group from the same Degree and university who employed a different methodology. To gather information, we administered an internationally validated survey – the Student Engagement Questionnaire – and corroborated its validity and reliability with the participants of our study. Our main results are that this methodological experience based on gami- fication promoted a motivating teaching-learning environment, encouraged significant interaction between teachers and students, promoted self-managed learning, interpersonal and communicative skills, and developed student adaptability, while also creating a playful and dynamic atmosphere. We therefore conclude that proper planning and gamification development help to create environ- ments that enrich learning at the university level, improve the management of knowledge and trai- ning content, and develop important transversal skills for the training of future Elementary School teachers.

In this study we investigate how prior knowledge, the comprehensive learning approach, problem-based teaching and assessment influence students’ basic-learning skills in Mathematics at the university level. To do so, we employed a quasi-experimental research design and a structured questionnaire. Two experimental groups and two control groups of students were involved. We found a negligible correlation between prior knowledge and basic-learning skills but a positive correlation between prior knowledge and the comprehensive learning approach. On the other hand, we found practically no correlation between prior knowledge and assessment. We also found that problem-based teaching correlated positively and that the traditional approach correlated negatively with prior knowledge. Moreover, prior knowledge, problem-based teaching, the comprehensive learning approach and assessment explained 50% of the variance in the levels of basic-learning skills.

In this study we analyze how a teaching aid known as a Study Guide influences the teaching and learning process in a subject of the undergraduate degree in Elementary Education at the University of Murcia (Spain). To do so, we developed an ad hoc questionnaire comprising 30 five-option Likert-style questions. The questionnaire was then validated using the expert judgment technique. The dimensions of analysis were: use of the Study Guide, content of the Study Guide, and activities conducted. Our results show that the students valued the structure and usefulness of the Study Guide positively for preparing the examination, completing the course assignments and understanding key concepts. Gender differences were observed in relation to the usefulness of the evaluation rubrics since female students generally found them useful whereas male students did not. The result was the same when it came to the understanding of concepts and the completion of assignments. Our analysis of the structure of this material means that this research will also help strengthen the call for Study Guide projects published each year by the University of Murcia.

This study explores the viewing patterns of 17 instructional videos in both a traditional and flipped classroom environment by 732 business students taking an IT-related module. While previous work has concentrated mainly on outputs(e.g. student satisfaction/results), this study focuses on how the nature of students’ interactions with videos can be determined through a deep analysis of analytics data. The main findings show that there were less interactions with the instructional videos in the flipped classroom environment compared to the traditional environment, and that videos were used more as a revision aid prior to exams (in both environments) than as an ongoing support to develop skills during term. Implications of this study include the need for regular monitoring of how instructional videos are being used during termand the importance of undertaking a deeper analysis of analytics data as the initial summary data may be misleading.

The implementation of undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in Spanish universities has been accompanied by a review of the teaching methodologies used. These methodologies incorporating, in many cases, new Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). The ICT of Audience Response Systems (ARS), Clickers, and videos (mUVies) were used in a quantitative subject of a degree offered by the Universitat de València (UV), in an attempt to mitigate the low teaching load of the same and provide students with support material inside and outside the classroom. The work presented examines the students' perception of the use of these ICTs in their learning process and also the volume of work involved in its implementation. Using descriptive and inferential analyses of the opinions obtained in the ICT surveys and the results of the continuous assessment and the final exam, we conclude that the students valued the use of both ICTs very positively with average score higher than 8 (out of 10), rating better the VIDEOS-mUVies than Clickers. As for the volume of work that the implementation of ICTs, this is estimated at about 7.5 hours for students and about 132.5 hours for teachers.

In this paper we present the fundamentals of software design capable of monitoring and recording data related to the management of mathematical problem solving processes. The software allows a systematic collection of the variables of the resolution process from which it is possible to obtain different student learning analytics. By not focusing exclusively on the final outcome of the resolution process, it is possible to identify cognitive tendencies of the students. In this manuscript we describe the characteristics of this technological environment together with the didactic basis that justifies the interest of research at school levels in which poor knowledge limits the formalization of problem solving situations. The first results of a pilot study that has allowed the evaluation of strengths and weaknesses of the developing version are attached. Finally, future directions for this technological environment are discussed as one more step in both innovation and research in Mathematics Education.

The insertion of digital technology for the work of tangible and intangible heritage can become a creative tool that reinforces the role of the teacher as an educator of local heritage (in line with what is suggested in the Plan Nacional de Educación y Patrimonio (PNEyP)). In addition, this type of resources allow the development of tools that improve the interpretation of the patrimonial environments and bring them closer to the students. Our proposal is an original didactic intervention made with sixth grade students of Primary Education is exposed in the environment of Castell de Marinyén (Benifairó de la Valldigna, Valencia) through the use of stereoscopic or spherical photography and the hypothesis of reconstruction. This activity combines research on the immediate environment, the digital technologies and the use of image as a research document, which has made it possible to propose the technological means in patrimonial education by means of updated, simple and accessible resources that allow the realization of concrete investigations and the work of contents of different areas of knowledge. In conclusion, the defects that the patrimonial education has had in its insertion in the educational system, extending its treatment in the classroom, as well as its disposition within the school curriculum.
数字技术在物质和非物质遗产工作中的应用可以成为一种创造性的工具，加强教师作为当地遗产教育者的作用(符合国家计划Educación y Patrimonio (PNEyP)的建议)。此外，这种类型的资源允许开发工具，以改进对遗传环境的解释，并使它们更接近学生。我们的建议是对初等教育的六年级学生进行原始的教学干预，该教学干预是通过使用立体或球形摄影和重建假设，暴露在Castell de marinysamen (Benifairó de la Valldigna, Valencia)的环境中。这项活动结合了对直接环境的研究，数字技术和图像作为研究文件的使用，这使得通过更新，简单和可访问的资源提出传承教育中的技术手段成为可能，这些资源允许实现具体调查和不同知识领域内容的工作。综上所述，世袭教育在融入教育体系、扩大其在课堂上的地位以及在学校课程中的配置方面存在的缺陷。
