From individual annotations to shared attention
Social annotation (SA) tools in computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) environments facilitate collective knowledge construction by supporting students externalize and share evolving understandings. In this study, we extend SA to an immersive astronomy simulation, where annotations took the form of visual highlights on celestial objects and constellations rather than written comments. While research has predominantly focused on the quan…
Human-AI collaboration in classroom video analysis
Video-based analysis of classroom interactions offers valuable insights into user behaviour and engagement, yet manual coding remains labour-intensive and difficult to scale. Traditional computer vision models automate some tasks but rely on rigid taxonomies and extensive labelled data, limiting their usability for educators and researchers. This study explores the use of pre-trained video-based Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to support…
Cultivating science data literacy in K-16 science education through data practices
As data science advances with the emergence of new computational technologies, science data literacy (SDL)—the ability to understand, use, and critically engage with data to address real-world scientific problems—becomes increasingly vital in science education. However, research on how data practices vary across scientific disciplines and educational levels remains limited, hindering the development of a more cohesive understanding of how SDL can…
A multimodal representation framework for collaborative knowledge-building in an immersive astronomy simulation
The complex processes of collaborative knowledge construction require a multimodal approach to capture the interplay between learners, tools, and the environment. While existing studies have recognized the importance of considering multiple modalities, there remains a need for a comprehensive framework that explicitly models the dynamics of knowledge representation and construction. Drawing on theoretical perspectives from collaborative knowledge…

Alcohol Consumption Norms and the Favored Alcohol Consumption Policies of Citizens of Seoul
The purpose of this study was to define the alcohol consumption norms and attitudes toward alcohol regulation policies among citizens of Seoul and the relationships between such norms and the favored regulatory policies. The study population consisted of 1001 adults aged 19-80 years living in Seoul. We collected demographic data and data on health behaviors, attitudes towards drinking, and preferred alcohol regulation policies. The correlations b…
Understanding embodied immersion in technology‐enabled embodied learning environments
Learning and transfer effects of embodied simulations targeting crosscutting concepts in science
Detecting threshold concepts through Bayesian knowledge tracing
Autonomy and Privilege in Doctoral Education
Guided by theories of socialization and possible selves, this study examines how STEM doctoral students perceive their academic and professional trajectories. More specifically, we rely on four years of interview data from 66 doctoral students in the biological sciences to explore students’ perceived trajectories, focusing on the salient identities and experiences that shape the way students identify and describe their graduate experiences over t…
Chinese Lottery Business and Korea, 1898–1909
This paper investigates Chinese-managed lottery businesses and their circulation from China into Korea. It focuses on the case of the business practices and marketing of the Cantonese company Tongshuntai, a foremost representative of Chinese capital in Korea. Through the case study of the lottery, East Asian trade networks can be understood as a kind of network circulating culture and information across the region. In 1899, the first modern Chine…
Nationalism across Frontiers
This paper analyses the business communications of the Tongshuntai firm in order to examine Cantonese merchants’ attitudes and responses to the first Sino-Japanese War (1894–95). Since Tongshuntai achieved rapid commercial growth in Korea under the auspices of the Qing Empire’s political presence in Korea, Tan Jiesheng, the executive manager of Tongshuntai, kept close eyes on the political evolution of events. While his overriding concern was wit…
The Enforcement of Immigration Control in Colonial Korea and the Rise of Nationalism in the Chinese Media
This paper investigates how conflicts and tension built up between Chinese migrant workers and Korean residents in colonial Korea (1910-1945). This led up to the enforcement of immigration controls by the Japanese authorities and also to a change of the image of Koreans in the Chinese media. The Japanese government adopted a policy to ban Chinese laborers from mainland Japan. This policy implied also, that, by contrast, the Government General of …
