Enterprise Implementation of Educational Technology: Exploring Employee Learning Behavior in E-Learning Environments

In the rapidly evolving landscape of information technology and with the ubiquitousness of the internet, corporations are increasingly focused on harnessing educational technology to boost their competitive prowess. A pivotal question emerges: Can they implement this technology effectively and sustainably to enhance the learning capabilities of their workforce and facilitate their accumulation of knowledge and skills? This concern remains a central focus in the corporate sphere. From educational psychology, goal orientation theory offers an explanatory framework for understanding learner (employee) behavior variations following learning interventions. This research is grounded in the e-learning environment fostered by educational technology within corporations. It explores and hypothesizes the impact of employee achievement motivations—including learning, proving, and avoiding goal orientations—on self-regulated learning (encompassing cognitive, motivational, and behavioral adjustments). Additionally, this study examines how employees’ self-regulated learning and learning satisfaction with the learning process influence learning effectiveness (learning outcomes) assessments. Our empirical survey targeted 380 employees from 26 companies participating in corporate educational technology learning (e-learning), with our research hypotheses tested through PLS structural equation modeling. The analysis indicates that employees’ learning and proving goal orientations indirectly positively affect their learning outcomes by mediating self-regulated learning and learning satisfaction. Conversely, employees’ avoidance goal orientation indirectly negatively impacts their learning outcomes by mediating their self-regulated learning and learning satisfaction. Finally, the researchers offer recommendations for management and future research directions.

Educația și conștientizarea etică a tehnologiilor IA și folosirea lor în mediul academic

The essay aims to contribute to discussions about the implementation of AI-based technologies in education, through a perspective that will stimulate the advance of ethical research and will overcome the classic “pro” or “con” controversy. We will explore here, albeit not exhaustively (given the dimensions of this paper), aspects of learning that should be integrated into the analysis of how we evaluate AI technologies and design rules of academic integrity. We will review some directions for the development of AI technologies for education, the risks and benefits presented so far in the specialized literature, and we will endorse the idea that education and “ethical awareness” are basic presuppositions for the success of any model of academic integrity. The conclusion will focus on the importance of adopting in the respective fields principles that are more relevant to the reality in which we live and that do not arbitrarily circumscribe the field, inevitably leading to the success of some underground models, opposed to integrity. Conversely, it would support those principles that foster the advancement of ethical research by integrating all aspects that affect the academic field, on the model: knowledge enables improvements and adjustments.

Distance learning technologies and their legal regulation in the Republic of Kazakhstan

This study addresses the pressing relevance of implementing distance learning technology in the Republic of Kazakhstan across various educational levels, guided by the framework of legal regulation. The study aims to investigate the benefits of using diverse distance learning technologies in modern education, improving access, motivation, and flexibility while fostering environmental awareness and societal prosperity. The chosen methodology is based on the diagnostic testing method to assess and analyze the educational needs and preferences of students. The study involved 100 participants, ranging in age from 19 to 26, from the Abai Kazakh National Pedagogical University. The study shows important signs and criteria for incorporating distance learning into legal rules in a way that works. These include factors related to the environment, motivation, cognition, analysis, and culture. This transformation of education aligns with real-life situations, adapting to changing circumstances and allowing students to select distance learning when necessary. The implementation of modern technology in distance education facilitates profound knowledge acquisition while accommodating evolving personal circumstances, ultimately fostering a conducive environment for continued high-quality education at cognitive and social levels.

Give heart cells a beat: An interactive museum exhibit that synchronizes stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes to visitors’ heartbeat

Science museums play an important role in science education, engaging the public with science concepts and building support for scientific research. Here, we describe Give Heart Cells a Beat, an interactive exhibit that lets museum visitors synchronize the beating of live stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes to their own heart rate in real time. The beat rate of cells accurately matched the beat rate of visitors and responded dynamically to changes such as exercise. Visitor evaluation revealed that engagement with the specimen prompted curiosity in heart biology and stem cells. Give Heart Cells a Beat is the product of a close collaboration between a museum and an academic research laboratory, and to our knowledge, it is the first interactive exhibit to use live human heart cells. We hope this exhibit serves as an example for the implementation of stem cell technology in informal science education and inspires future relationships between academia and public science venues.

ГЕОАҚПАРАТТЫҚ ТЕХНОЛОГИЯЛАР ГЕОКЕҢІСТІКТІК ОЙЛАУ ДАҒДЫЛАРЫН ДАМЫТУ ҚҰРАЛЫ РЕТІНДЕ

The use of geospatial technologies is becoming increasingly important in geography education, enabling activities such as spatial data retrieval, sampling, organised storage and transfer of necessary information. However, this process is very slow due to many obstacles that hinder the implementation of geospatial technologies in secondary education. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyse the current status of geospatial technologies in teaching geography in schools in Kazakhstan and to as-sess the potential of these technologies to develop students’ geospatial skills. The state of application of geospatial technologies in secondary education in Kazakhstan was determined by a survey. The survey involved 208 geography teachers from 17 regions and 3 large cities of Kazakhstan. The survey results showed that 96.2% of respondents use geospatial technologies (geographic information systems – GIS, software, mapping services, geoportals, mobile GIS applications). The most common are mobile GIS applications (69.5%) and mapping services (21.4%). It was also found that 24.1% of respondents use ArcGis and 20.7% use QGIS for GIS-based data design. Although the content of typical secondary school programmes and textbooks reflects the problem of practical application of GIS technologies, it was found that teachers face a number of obstacles in using them. Therefore, teachers would benefit from using not only GIS but also geospatial technologies in general when teaching school geography. In the future, geospatial technologies will help students to develop geospatial thinking skills due to their multifunctional capabilities.
