DOI: 10.1109/tlt.2023.3328913
Abstract: Educational escape rooms are taxing in terms of the time needed to design, create, conduct, and evaluate. Therefore, a high “return on investment” is expected regarding their potential to improve teaching and learning. Whereas many… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2021/6668175
Abstract: Gamma oscillation in neural circuits is believed to associate with effective learning in the brain, while the underlying mechanism is unclear. This paper aims to study how spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), a typical mechanism of learning,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s41235-025-00693-8
Abstract: The current survey measured students’ knowledge, use, and perceived effectiveness of different learning strategies. Whereas a common assumption from previous research is that students forego using effective strategies because they lack awareness of them, the… read more here.
