“…We labelled the domain of focus for each theory, as described in the papers of interest. What is the role of the learning theory? ( application, description, analysis and synthesis ).To examine how theories of learning are used in MMLA research (second part of RQ1), based on Rogers (2012) and Eriksson et al (2022), we used the following four roles that the theories take and conducted coding across the selected papers: The descriptive role is when a theory is used to frame the work without further engagement (theory is mentioned without elaborating on its use). The application role is when a theory is used to inform the work (eg, selection of data or analysis) without engaging with the merits or qualities of the theory itself. The analysis role involves deeper engagement with theory with a focus on discussing its merits and qualities and even sometimes developing its inner concepts (extending or contextualizing it). The synthesis role refers to works that not only discuss the merits and qualities of a theory but also compare and synthesize multiple theories with the goal of integrating multiple ways of knowing. The description and application roles use the theory as is, whereas the analysis and synthesis take on a more generative perspective. What modalities are used and how?…”

“…The use of full or partial systematic literature reviews in learning-technologies research has increased in recent years (Eriksson et al, 2022). Instead of focusing on quantitative data, semi-systematic reviews identify themes, theoretical perspectives and other qualitative information related to the topic (Wong et al, 2013).…”

This study presents the outcomes of a semi‐systematic literature review on the role of learning theory in multimodal learning analytics (MMLA) research. Based on previous systematic literature reviews in MMLA and an additional new search, 35 MMLA works were identified that use theory. The results show that MMLA studies do not always discuss their findings within an established theoretical framework. Most of the theory‐driven MMLA studies are positioned in the cognitive and affective domains, and the three most frequently used theories are embodied cognition, cognitive load theory and control–value theory of achievement emotions. Often, the theories are only used to inform the study design, but there is a relationship between the most frequently used theories and the data modalities used to operationalize those theories. Although studies such as these are rare, the findings indicate that MMLA affordances can, indeed, lead to theoretical contributions to learning sciences. In this work, we discuss methods of accelerating theory‐driven MMLA research and how this acceleration can extend or even create new theoretical knowledge. Practitioner notesWhat is already known about this topic Multimodal learning analytics (MMLA) is an emerging field of research with inherent connections to advanced computational analyses of social phenomena. MMLA can help us monitor learning activity at the micro‐level and model cognitive, affective and social factors associated with learning using data from both physical and digital spaces. MMLA provide new opportunities to support students' learning. What this paper adds Some MMLA works use theory, but, overall, the role of theory is currently limited. The three theories dominating MMLA research are embodied cognition, control–value theory of achievement emotions and cognitive load theory. Most of the theory‐driven MMLA papers use theory ‘as is’ and do not consider the analytical and synthetic role of theory or aim to contribute to it. Implications for practice and/or policy If the ultimate goal of MMLA, and AI in Education in general, research is to understand and support human learning, these studies should be expected to align their findings (or not) with established relevant theories. MMLA research is mature enough to contribute to learning theory, and more research should aim to do so. MMLA researchers and practitioners, including technology designers, developers, educators and policy‐makers, can use this review as an overview of the current state of theory‐driven MMLA.

“…The theory recognizes that children actively participate in the learning process, serving as miniscientists as they conduct experiments, make observations, and learn about the world. Children constantly add new knowledge, expand on current knowledge, and generate new vocabulary as their language of communication as they engage with their surroundings (Eriksson et al, 2022).…”

Teachers need help teaching subjects in MTB-MLE and other subjects because the language used is Cebuano. This has an impact on learning activities that could be more optimal. This study aims to analyze the difficulties faced by grade 3 students in implementing Cebuano-Visayan teaching and assess the management actions taken by school administrators and teachers. This research uses a descriptive research design. Data was collected using purposive sampling from 17 school administrators, 30 teachers, and 253 students. Data collection methods use observation and questionnaires. The arithmetic mean is used as a statistical tool. The research results show that school administrators often undertake various management actions to facilitate the implementation of Cebuano-Visayan. Speaking and grammar skills were moderately complex, while reading, comprehension, and vocabulary skills were identified as the most challenging for Grade 3 students. This research revealed that effective and adequate management strategies contribute to the learning difficulties encountered in Cebuano teaching Visayan. Despite efforts by school officials and teachers to address this situation, it continues and even worsens. Therefore, school leaders are advised to re-evaluate their school curricula and thoroughly assess the inclusion of the Cebuano-Visayan language in the lower elementary grades (Grades 1-3) to identify actual problems and provide appropriate interventions and practical solutions.
