The spread of the COVID-19 pushed K-12 schools to swift their traditional face-to-face in-person classes to online classes. This study examined middle school students’ perception of usefulness in online classes, as well as the relationship between perceived usefulness and its key influencing factors. A questionnaire survey was conducted on 350 7th-9th grade students in China who had synchronous online classes during the outbreak of COVID-19. Results showed that students’ overall perception of the usefulness of the online class was positive, comparing to the traditional face-to-face class. The relationships of students’ perceived social presence, sense of community, and ease of use on their perceived usefulness of the online class were tested by multiple regression. The results indicated that students’ perceived social presence and ease of use online learning system were two significant predictors of their perceived usefulness of the online classes. The findings of this study suggest that online learning can be further integrated into the K-12 curriculum and activities after the COVID-19 pandemic to make the K-12 school system more flexible, resilient, and enriching.

Our previous work, FIBER (Flipped Issue-Based Enquiry Ride), is a pedagogical framework to integrate FC (Flipped Classroom) into the process of issue-based enquiry learning for social humanities education. This paper presents our recent work, G-FIBER (Gamified-FIBER), in which we have re-worked on FIBER with the infusion of gamified learning. In the evaluative study (with 72 high-school students in Hong Kong), we showed the pedagogical effectiveness of G-FIBER was significantly higher than FIBER’s, with a medium-to-large effect size. This re-work contributes to the field with evidence for grounding more future studies on the crossover between FC and gamified learning for advancing students’ learning in school education.

Psychologists and educational scientists agree that students’ participation is the key to successful learning [1], a meaningful and effective learning process needs student to participate actively. Inquiry learning is such a learning way to promote students to construct knowledge and ability independently, and help them solve problems in activities which based on real situation and containing knowledge content. Inquiry learning aims to cultivate students’ critical thinking and innovative skills, which is also the ability requirement of talents in the new century. More and more scholars pay attention to the learning process and design of inquiry learning, because its learning effect is better than that of traditional learning, and its effect will be better if it contents scaffoldings. Scholars emphasize the significance of scaffolding and its role in the process of students' inquiry learning—–to support students and help them achieve the goal level from their existing cognitive, to complete the knowledge construction and ability improvement eventually. We used fact and case knowledge expansion diagram to design inquiry scaffoldings, which can help designers to characterize the thinking process of inquiry, determine the position and the content theme of scaffolding, and help teachers to clarify students' learning level and locate their inquiry position in the process of their inquiry. We designed two theme activities and implemented them to verify the feasibility of this technical method. This study found and verified the feasibility of this technology, we can provide technical support for inquiry learning activities and scaffolding design, assist teachers to master students' inquiry process, and let students participate in the learning process that meets the needs of talent cultivation.

Using technology acceptance model (TAM) as a theoretical framework, the study explored the potential factors that influence college teachers’ behavioral intention to teach online based on the results of a national survey (N=1090) administered during the Covid-19 pandemic. A structural equation modelling (SEM) was proposed by introducing new constructs such as subjective norm, facilitating conditions, affective and cognitive attitude into the TAM model. Meanwhile, the individual differences of college teachers were examined as moderating variables. The results suggested that cognitive attitude had much large impact on teachers’ behavioral intention to teach online, and perceived use- fulness of online learning platforms had greater influence on teachers’ online teaching attitude than perceived ease of use, particularly on cognitive attitude. Additionally, the moderating effect of teachers’ individual differences were also found to be insignificant. The study results supported the revised TAM as a theoretical model to understand college teachers’ online teaching behavioral intention, and can inform the policies to sustain teachers’ motivation for continual online teaching practice during the post-pandemic world.

Learning cognitive input is one of the most direct and continuous issues in educational practice. As a key element of online learning quality, effective evaluation of students' cognitive input in online learning can encourage students to actively participate in the online learning process. However, it is currently unclear which indicators can reflect the cognitive input of learners in the online learning process. Therefore, from the perspective of learning analysis, this research explored the relationship between online learning behavior and online cognitive input, clarified evaluation indicators that can represent online cognitive input, and attempted to build a learning analysis model for online cognitive input evaluation.

The study aims to examine the effectiveness of flipped-classroom instruction on college students’ computational thinking skills (CTS). Participants were enrolled in the basic computer course from two classes at a university in central China. One class as an experimental group was chosen for the flipped-classroom instruction method (n=55); the other as a control group used the traditional lecture-based instruction method (n=54). The results show that learning through the flipped-classroom approach can significantly promote students’ levels of creativity, algorithmic thinking, cooperativity, and critical thinking, compared with the traditional lecture-based instruction approach. The findings of this research suggest that instructors should be encouraged to take the flipped-classroom instruction method to teach.

In recent years, online teaching has become a hot topic in K-12 education reform. Based on the expectation confirmation model of information systems continuance (ECM-IS), four individual characteristic factors of self-efficacy, innovation, perceived risk and information literacy as well as two external environmental factors of subjective norms and facilitating conditions were introduced to build a theoretical model of factors affecting teachers’ continuance intention of online teaching from the perspective of "technology-individual-environment". This study tested model encompassing nine variables through empirical research. Data were collected on a sample of 59156 K-12 teachers who have had an online teaching experience during COVID-19 using an online questionnaire. Data were modelled using the partial least squares-structural equation model (PLS-SEM) to test the hypotheses. Results indicated that perceived usefulness and satisfaction in the ECM-IS model have significant effect on teachers’ continuance intention while self-efficacy, information literacy, innovation and subjective norms were found to significantly affect teachers’ continuance intention. However, perceived risk and facilitating conditions have no effect on continuance intention. According to the results, there are some suggestions for better online teaching effects: improving hardware facilities and software resources, innovating teacher training and research methods, and optimizing online teaching service supply.

As the means to display abstract concepts and provide interactive experience, augmented reality (AR) has shown unparalleled superiority in educational domain. A sample of 213 Chinese K-12 teachers participated in our study. The results show that: 1. The external environment, self-efficacy, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use directly affect the teachers’ intention to use AR; 2. System characteristics indirectly affect the teachers’ intention to use AR through intermediary variables. 3. Perceived ease of use indirectly affects the teachers’ intention to use AR by affecting perceived usefulness and self-efficacy. The research has certain theoretical significance for AR application in teaching.
