Abstract

The adoption of virtual reality (VR) technology in English courses at vocational colleges has gained attention for its potential to enhance learning outcomes. Understanding the factors that influence behavioral intention to use VR technology is crucial for successful implementation. Perceived benefit, which reflects the advantages users expect from VR, and perceived sacrifice, encompassing the effort or costs associated with its use, play critical roles in shaping users' intentions. This study explores the relationships between perceived benefit, perceived sacrifice, and behavioral intention to use VR in English courses, providing insights into how these factors impact the acceptance of innovative educational tools. This study use quantitative research which involve 231 English teachers in China’s Vocational Colleges in Jinlin Province. SMART-PLS is used to analyze the data in order to show the path coefficient results for the variables. Results revealed that perceived benefit had a small negative but statistically insignificant correlation with behavioral intention. Similarly, perceived sacrifice exhibited a slight positive yet insignificant relationship with behavioral intention. Both hypotheses were rejected, indicating no significant influence of perceived benefit or perceived sacrifice on behavioral intention to implement VR technology. These findings highlight the need to explore additional factors influencing VR adoption in educational contexts.

Abstract

This paper employs bibliometric analysis and visualization techniques, including VOS Viewer, to scrutinize trends in managing action research in schools. Utilizing a dataset of 337 articles sourced from Web of Science (WoS) until 2023, the study adheres to PRISMA guidelines to systematically examine authorship patterns, trends, and themes. The analysis reveals a surge in publication rates and a focus on collaborative problem-solving, inclusivity, and global perspectives, with notable contributions from journals like educational action research and authors (such as Wood). Diverse author collaborations and global representation underscore interconnected research themes. Additionally, four distinct clusters—knowledge and leadership, action research and engagement, caring and impact, and empowerment and participation—emerge, encapsulating action research management in schools. However, challenges such as limited discussion platforms, resource constraints, and contextual barriers persist, necessitating enhanced reflective practices and collaborative learning. While bibliometric analysis provides quantitative insights, the study advocates for complementing such approaches with qualitative methods to ensure a comprehensive understanding of action research management in schools, guiding future strategies in educational research.

Abstract

In the context of Southeast Asia, Muslim-majority nations Indonesia and Malaysia had pioneered the development of halal tourism. Nevertheless, Malaysia has outperformed Indonesia in cultivating its halal tourism industry. The research sought to investigate the political economy factors contributing to this discrepancy. The research posited that the emergence of Islamic identity, the intensification of Islam’s politicization, and the varying degrees of capitalizing on Islamic values are three crucial determinants influencing the relative success of Malaysia’s halal tourism industry compared to Indonesia’s. Firstly, the perception of Islamic identity in Malaysia is less threatening compared to that in Indonesia. Secondly, the politicization of Islam is less pronounced in Malaysia than in Indonesia. To examine these assertions, the research utilized a methodological blend of primary and secondary data, incorporating interviews with policymakers and stakeholders of halal tourism in both countries. In addition to identifying the critical factors shaping the development of halal tourism, the research contributed by offering several recommendations concerning the innovative aspect of halal tourism branding. It was argued that within the growth of halal tourism in a nation, debates surrounding the emergence of Islamic identity in aspects of halal tourism can potentially obstruct the advancement of cultural tourism commodities. Consequently, the research enhances our understanding of the complex interplay between political economy factors and the evolution of halal tourism from an academic perspective.

Abstract

Circular economy emphasizes the principles of reduce, reuse, and recycle. By adopting circular economy concepts in the food system, we can ensure a more resilient and sustainable food supply. Aligned with this, technical and vocational education (TVET) plays an important role in bridging environmental education and the circular economy. Within the realm of TVET, students receive comprehensive training and skill development encompassing subjects related to food preparation and production. Additionally, TVET extends its purview to cover essential areas, including sustainable resource management, renewable energy technology, waste management, and the implementation of environmentally friendly production processes. However, the lack of clear understanding of the circular economy in the education sector requires this to be explored more deeply. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify the nature of published scientific literature on this topic and what are the emerging themes of circular economy of food system in TVET education. A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted using Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), Education Resources Information Center (ERIC) and Dimensions databases. The result from this analysis revealed that four themes emerged: i) skills and competency; ii) implementation in food system; iii) economy, social, and environmental (ESE) impact; and iv) delivery of content. Based on the derived theme, the concept of circular economy is discussed consisting of four pillars in order to provide a clear understanding about the relation of circular economy in TVET education. The findings of this study expand knowledge and the literature on the circular economy within the context of TVET.

Abstract

Technical and vocational education training (TVET) assessment is critical to determine the intended learning outcomes for students. However, the TVET assessment presents several essential obstacles, such as assessing occupational skills disconnected from lesson-learning results. Assessment methods are another contentious topic among academics and other professionals because teachers’ different methods of evaluating students’ work are incompatible with assessment objectives and are a significant issue in TVET assessment. Consequently, this research investigates the challenges and strengths of classroom assessment practices and the relevance of implementing vocational skills. This research uses a quantitative survey methodology to assess the degree of participants agree using descriptive analysis. The study’s findings indicate several challenges associated with administering classroom-based assessment (CA) within the context of TVET. CA is an excellent venue for assessing the students’ acquired knowledge and abilities in education. The TVET assessment must include, in addition to technical skills, generic skills related to Industry 4.0 and career adaptability skills as a student’s learning outcomes. These skills serve as the basis for the development of skills and competencies. Cognitive, psychomotor, and interpersonal qualities are vital in the TVET assessment as a student learning outcome.

Abstract

Creativity, a crucial skill in the fourth industrial revolution (IR4.0) is highly demanded in the workforce to drive innovation in product design. Therefore, it is important to cultivate creativity in product design through design and technology (D&T) education. However, many past studies encountered challenges regarding D&T teachers’ teaching creativity which might affect creativity cultivation among students. Thus, this article aims to identify the challenges faced by D&T teachers in cultivating student creativity within product design development. Utilizing the systematic literature review (SLR) method using reporting standards for systematic evidence syntheses (ROSES) in three databases, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar. Based on thematic analysis, this SLR leads to three themes: i) lack of pedagogical competence; ii) different thinking styles; and iii) lack of motivation. Addressing these challenges highlights the importance for educational institutions to align their curricula with current industry demands, ensuring students are well-prepared to tackle the complexities of contemporary product design. This effort requires collaboration among educators, industry leaders, and policymakers to update teaching methods, incorporate practical experiences, and enhance an environment that cultivates creativity.

Abstract

Teachers’ acceptance of technology in the teaching setting is significantly influenced by their behavioral intention to utilize information and communication technology (ICT). A considerable amount of study has been done on the use of ICT in teaching English as a foreign language (EFL). Nevertheless, there exists a significant lack of deep studies among EFL teachers in Chinese vocational colleges. Drawing on the technology acceptance model (TAM) and technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) theoretical frameworks, this current study aimed to ascertain whether EFL teachers’ TPACK levels could predict their intention to adopt ICT. A quantitative study was conducted with the participation of 440 EFL instructors from vocational schools in Shandong Province. The seven components met the scale’s validity and reliability requirements and the partial least squares (PLS) approach was utilized to describe the structural model and examine the relationships among significant components. The findings revealed that EFL teachers’ perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEU), and attitudes towards use (ATCU) significantly impacted their behavioral intention to use (BIU) ICT. Moreover, the TPACK framework exerted a substantial influence on their acceptance of ICT. The study’s findings may provide insights and resources for subsequent theoretical research and teaching approaches centered on enhancing the integration of technology in EFL education.

Abstract

With the popularity of technology-supported blended learning (BL) in vocational colleges, students’ cognitive load (CL) caused by the increasing complexity of BL environments potentially impact the overall learning satisfaction (LS). In order to explore the effects of CL on students’ BL, this study investigates how different dimensions of learning engagement (LE) (emotional, cognitive, and behavioral) impact on students’ LS and whether CL can moderate these relationships. This quantitative study was conducted among 615 Chinese vocational students. Survey research was carried out by questionnaires that have been well-established that were taken and modified from previous studies. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the relationships among these variables. Findings revealed that emotional, cognitive, and behavioral engagement (BE) can positively predict LS. Additionally, BE mediates the relationship between psychological engagement (emotional and cognitive) and LS when CL is not at a low level. CL moderates the pathways from psychological engagement to BE and in turn changes the LE influence mechanism on LS. This study provides valuable insights for educators to stimulate students’ engagement by satisfying their psychological needs, and optimize teaching design to balance CL in order to maintain active LE and satisfaction levels.
