Understanding the effects of teacher credibility on students' cognitive engagement in online learning: The mediating roles of academic self-efficacy and motivational regulation strategies

Acta Psychologica
Teacher credibility is one of the most critical drivers of students' engagement in online learning. However, discussions about how and to what extent teacher credibility affects students' engagement are lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the

Crowdsourcing innovation and product development: Gamification as a motivational driver

Cogent Business & Management, 2016
Crowdsourcing—outsourcing a job to external contributors through an open call—has become an important part of innovation process and product development. However, many crowdsourcing initiatives fail due to low engagement and participation. In the current paper, we aim to explore how companies can employ gamification—game elements and design techniques ...

Phase Diagrams Enable Solid‐State Battery Design

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Batteries are non‐equilibrium devices with inherent thermodynamic driving forces to react at interfaces, regardless of kinetics or operating conditions. Chemical potential mismatches across interfaces are dissipated via interfacial reactions. In this work, it is illustrated how phase diagrams and chemical potential maps predict degradation pathways but

Coating‐Free Nanoscratching for Liquid‐Crystal Alignment on PCB‐Compatible Millimeter‐Wave Reflective Unit Cells

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Direct nanoscratching with a 500 nm diamond lapping film creates groove‐guided liquid‐crystal alignment interfaces on PCB‐compatible Cu‐patterned RF substrates within minutes, eliminating polymer coating and high‐temperature baking. The coating‐free process enables optical/molecular alignment validation and voltage‐programmable 28 GHz reflection‐phase ...

Electrohydrodynamically Driven Broadband and Color‐Shifting in Cholesteric Liquid Crystals

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Ion‐driven electrohydrodynamic effects enable dynamic photonic bandgap modulation in cholesteric liquid crystals under low‐frequency AC driving. By regulating ion‐mediated disturbance of the helical structure, this approach produces two reversible optical responses: rapid color shifting across the visible spectrum and broadband reflection spanning the ...

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in
