“…While the students did not express significant differences between the pre-and post-assessments regarding the ease of use of this particular technology (item 15), there was a high valuation of the potential they attribute to it, even with moderate positive variations concerning its potential in the posttest (item 21). Nevertheless, practical implementation of VR technology in classrooms will require appropriate teacher training and reliable technological infrastructure [49,50].…”

In recent years, the adoption of emerging technologies in education (ETE) has significantly grown. However, the effective integration of these technologies remains challenging as many educators have not been afforded the professional/career readiness to properly acknowledge and use them as educational tools. Although the STEM approach has gained prominence in science education, it still requires proper teacher readiness for successful implementation. In this study, with design-based research and mixed-method approaches, a ten-session program for prospective teachers was developed and evaluated to foster the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively integrate different technological resources in STEM education. The program aims to bridge the gap between technology and pedagogy, empowering educators to maximize the use of ETE to enrich learning experiences. The main conclusions emphasize the significance of technology-centric education for future educators, stressing the necessity for teacher training programs that align technological potential with practical classroom applications. Integrating emerging technologies supports contemporary pedagogical approaches like STEM education, promoting active student participation and problem-solving skills. To fully harness emerging technologies’ potential, educators need training and support. Developing comprehensive training pathways for these technologies is vital to narrow the gap between technology and effective educational integration.

“…Virtual reality (VR) is an AI technology that can create immersive and interactive learning environments (Geng & Wu, 2021). VR technologies use computer-generated simulations of real or imaginary environments to create an immersive and interactive learning experience for students (Meccawy, 2022).…”

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform education by enabling personalized learning experiences, fostering collaboration and communication, and cultivating critical thinking and problem-solving skills. However, ethical issues such as privacy, bias, and the impact of technology on values and beliefs must be considered. This paper explores the implications of integrating AI into education from the perspective of Ignatian pedagogy, a Jesuit-inspired educational approach rooted in certain principles and values. Drawing on a comprehensive review of existing literature on AI in education and Ignatian pedagogy, this paper investigates how AI can support the goals of Ignatian pedagogy while addressing ethical concerns. The paper presents examples of AI use in educational settings, highlighting the potential benefits and ethical challenges. Notably, there is a gap in research on how AI aligns with the values and goals of different educational approaches, including Ignatian pedagogy. To address this gap, this paper examines the potential of AI to support Ignatian pedagogy and identifies critical ethical considerations that should be addressed. Our findings suggest that AI has the potential to support Ignatian pedagogy, but such integration requires thoughtful consideration of ethical issues. Further research is needed to evaluate the potential of AI to support Ignatian pedagogy and other educational approaches while addressing ethical concerns such as privacy, bias, and the impact of technology on values and beliefs.

“…Furthermore, XR technology in architecture education has seen a significant increase between 2019 and 2022, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic (2019-2022) forced most people to work and study from home, replacing face-to-face communication with online chat tools like ZOOM, Hangouts, Skype, Tencent Meetings, etc. [71]. Architecture is a profession that demands both communication and experience.…”

With the emergence of Architecture 4.0 and the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic, extended reality (XR) technology has been increasingly applied in architectural education. This study aims to systematically organize and analyze the applications and outcomes of XR technology in construction education over the past five years, provide a theoretical framework for its future widespread use, and highlight its drawbacks as well as future research directions. The paper employs content analysis to summarize and analyze the findings. The report reveals that more institutions are integrating XR technology into their architectural education programs and that it has a significant impact on teacher effectiveness, student motivation, reflection and improvement, and teacher–student communication. The study suggests that XR technology will increasingly replace conventional teaching techniques in classrooms.
