    Flipped Classroom with Virtual Reality Technology Learning Model for Chinese College Students in Psychological Education: A Need Assessment Study
    The growing prevalence of psychological health problems, particularly depression and anxiety, among Chinese college students necessitate innovative approaches to psychological education. This research investigates the psychological education needs of college students and proposes a flipped classroom model integrated with virtual reality (VR) technology to address these needs. A needs assessment survey, employing a 16-item questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale, was conducted to collect data from 400 students selected by stratigied eamdom sampling method from 125 higher education institutions in Anhui Province. The survey explored student perspectives on textbook content, learning outcomes learning methods and technologies. Subsequently, a flipped classroom model incorporating VR technology was developed based on a review of existing literature. This model was then evaluated by a panel of five experts across dimensions of suitability, model components, and learning activities. Quantitative data from the student needs assessment and the expert evaluation were analysed using descriptive statistics. Results from the needs assessment indicated a strong consensus among students (mean scores 4.12-4.77) regarding the importance of psychological education, with 15 of 16 items receiving "strongly agree" ratings. The proposed flipped classroom model, comprising before-class, in-class, after-class and evaluation components, received high ratings from the expert panel (mean scores 4.6-5.0) across all evaluation dimensions. The experts "strongly agree" with the model's suitability and potential effectiveness. This study offers an innovative pedagogical framework for psychological health education in higher education, leveraging VR technology within a flipped classroom design to support students in managing anxiety and depression.

    Research was undertaken to develop a blended learning model which contained three objectives. They were to 1) study student and teacher input for a blended learning model using a Thai university undergraduate course in information, innovation, and technology in education for the learning management conditions and improvement methods; 2) to research how to effectively improve the blended learning model and instructional media in accordance with the 80/80 criteria and 3) compare learning achievements and information literacy between student groups using the blended learning method and traditional learning method with information literacy as the covariate. The research was divided into three phases consisting of the development of the conceptual framework, a second phase which studied the blended learning model using both e-learning and face-toface methods with a 60/40 ratio. When applying a technology system to learning management utilizing instructional media, it was determined to be 81.53/80.11. Phase 3 found that blended learning affected learning and information literacy by at least 1 variate which had a different mean score from traditional learning with a statistical significance at the 0.05 level. The findings showed that the Thai university undergraduate students were satisfied with the blended learning model which was due to the change in the learning system as well as being tasked with interesting and challenging computer based lessons outside class. This was later enforced through teacher delivered lesson summaries during formal class time. Students understood the content better, enjoyed the self-directed learning and doing things independently.

    Tackling climate change requires strong cooperation from all countries. With the Paris Agreement, countries have formulated policies to address climate change. To be consistent with national mitigation policies, climate change education is particularly important, especially for young people. Educators effectively implementing climate change education in the absence of in-depth knowledge about climate change is of paramount importance. This study applied a new climate change educational program; embedded 11 climate change videos in an online course, C programming, cluster sampling was employed to select participants; 51 students took part in the four-week experiment, using a single group repeated measures experimental design. There are four key hypotheses: if climate change videos embedded in online courses, there will be an improvement in climate change awareness and mitigation behavior; there will be measurable gender effects; effects will be retained; and retention will vary with gender. The results showed that the climate change videos significantly enhanced student climate change awareness and mitigation behavior; no significant difference between the immediate post-test and the later retention tests, indicating that the treatment was effective; no significant difference between males and females in climate change awareness or mitigation behavior. The research demonstrated that integrating climate change videos into online courses, even those seemingly unrelated to environmental topics, can effectively enhance students’ climate change awareness and inspire them to take mitigation actions. This approach can be used in other online courses to help cultivate a more environmentally conscious generation, which is crucial for addressing the global challenge of climate change.

    ;
    This article follows up on a previous review of 30 empirical studies that examined the use of immersive virtual reality (iVR) for teaching foreign language (FL) published before 2021. That review concluded that iVR was an emerging technology in FL education. However, since then, iVR technology has rapidly developed and garnered more attention in FL education. To track the new trends in iVR-assisted FL education, we conducted a follow-up systematic review using the PRISMA method. We found 38 empirical studies published between January 2021 and March 2023, which is more than those previously found. Our findings revealed new trends and more benefits, yet more challenges compared to the previous review. The new trends discovered include an increase in both the quantity and quality of publications, research expanding from adults to younger learners, and a variety of language skills investigated. Moreover, the research focus has broadened from the iVR technology per se to its influence on different learners (e.g., gender and FL level) and the combination with other technologies or instructional strategies, such as High-iVR (i.e., users can interact with the virtual environment naturally with a sense of physical presence and full-body movement) and learner-created VR environments. The reported benefits of iVR-assisted FL education include enhancing learners'engagement and FL skills, while the challenges include handling operational issues and unstable internet connection. Drawing from the insights gathered through this review, we derive educational, technological, and research implications that contribute to the field of iVR-assisted FL education.
