In decision-making, individuals often rely on intuition, which can occasionally yield suboptimal outcomes. This study examines the impact of intuitive decision-making on individuals who are confronted with limited position information in the job application process. We propose a measure, the mismatch index, that gauges allocation efficiency by comp...

Online learning has become increasingly prevalent, offering accessibility and flexibility in education. Learners often engage in discussions and share ideas through posts and blogs, creating a form of "group wisdom" that generates and transforms new knowledge. Thus, this study examines how knowledge diffuses in online learning environments using a...

During the COVID-19 pandemic, online learning has become an important and widely used form of education. Many studies have pointed out that interaction is key to online learning. The Interaction Hierarchy Theory categorizes interactions in remote teaching into three types: operational, informational, and conceptual. Operational interaction serves a...

Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is one of the most important learning strategies. Augmented Reality (AR) is an effective way to support this strategy, which is considered conducive to enhance academic achievements of students during IBL. This paper investigated teacher-student interactions during AR-supported IBL by comparison and case study. First, f...

Videos are being used increasingly to deliver subject knowledge in online learning, but their use has long been criticsed for a lack of learner-to-learner interaction, which can result in high dropout rates. This highlights the need to reconsider instructional approaches and the design of online enviornments. Productive failure is an instructional...

The progress of mobile devices and augmented reality (AR) plays a great role in integrating information technology and classroom teaching. By integrating field research into exploration-based experimental teaching activities, this study developed an interactive AR physical-simulation experimental procedure and created an evaluation model of Knowled...
