  • ChatGPT-enhanced self-regulated learning in programming education

    Open AccessZilin Wang, Di Zou et al.ARTICLEInteractive Learning Environments2026

    ChatGPT shows potential for enhancing self-regulated learning (SRL) in education. This study examined its role in programming instruction through a seven-week intervention with 83 sophomores. Students were assigned to a control group receiving traditional instruction (N = 27), an experimental group using ChatGPT (N = 30), or a group combining ChatGPT with SRL strategies (N = 26). Two-way ANCOVA results indicate that ChatGPT-supported groups repor…

  • Robot-assisted speaking practice (Rasp)

    Open AccessRuofei Zhang, Di Zou et al.ARTICLEComputers & Education2026

    Robots are increasingly utilised in language education to physically accompany learners, simulate natural communication through verbal and non-verbal cues, and thereby engage students in various academic tasks, demonstrating potential in improving learner affection, engagement, and language proficiency. So far, research on using robots specifically for developing English as a Foreign Language (EFL) speaking skill, along with associated learner af…

  • A review of chatbot-assisted learning

    Ruofei Zhang, Di Zou et al.ARTICLEInteractive Learning Environments2024

    The chatbot has been increasingly applied and investigated in education, along with many review studies from different aspects. However, few reviews have been conducted on chatbot-assisted learning from the pedagogical and implementational aspects, which may provide implications for future application and investigation of educational chatbots. To fill in the gaps, we reviewed relevant studies from the pedagogical and implementational aspects. For…

  • Chatbot-based learning of logical fallacies in EFL writing

    Ruofei Zhang, Di Zou et al.ARTICLEInteractive Learning Environments2024

    Chatbots have been increasingly applied for EFL education and demonstrated overall usefulness in improving knowledge and motivation, while this technology has yet to be used for learning logical fallacies (i.e. errors in reasoning) in EFL writing. However, knowledge of logical fallacies is essential, with which learners can avoid fallacies in EFL writing and have enhanced writing quality. To fill in the gap, this study investigated the perceived …

  • Concepts, affordances, and theoretical frameworks of mixed reality enhanced language learning

    Ruofei Zhang, Di Zou et al.ARTICLEInteractive Learning Environments2024

    The application and investigation of various virtual world experiences in language learning have been on the rise. However, mixed reality (MR) has received limited attention due to its ambiguous concepts, unclear affordances, and insufficient incorporation of theoretical frameworks.To promote the investigation and implementation of MR-enhanced language learning, we aimed to explore its concepts, affordances, and theoretical frameworks by reviewin…

  • Digital game-based learning of information literacy

    Open AccessDi Zou, Ruofei Zhang et al.ARTICLEAustralasian Journal of…2021

    Information literacy (IL) is important for university students. In this research, we developed a digital role-playing game to enhance students’ learning of IL and investigated the effects of gameplay modes on their learning performance, motivation, self-efficacy and flow experiences. A total of 90 students participated in the study and played the game in collaborative, competitive and solo modes. Their IL knowledge was measured through a post-tes…
