Immersive reality capabilities of relieving hiraeth
Abstract Understanding how immersive experiences foster a sense of presence sufficient to rival real‐world experiences remains an open research area. Prior work has largely examined episodic memory recall in simulated environments, but less is known about how immersive technologies can reconnect individuals with personal memories.

Urban Noise Pollution Assessment Techniques [PDF]
The assessment of noise pollution can be made through measurements which, however, are restricted to a limited number of points. The simulation of the sound waves propagation enables the study of a whole region in respect to the expected sound pressure levels as a result from existent sound sources.

Form flows function: Learner‐centered game Re‐design in a STEM classroom
Abstract Re‐designing games facilitates interest‐driven learning and immerses learners in systems thinking. However, there are limited studies exploring how the form and function of tabletop games influence learners' design decisions and learning experiences. To address this gap, we conducted a mixed‐methods study in a STEM classroom in western Canada.
