“…The significance of the indirect paths was determined by observing the p-value, t-value, and 95% ULCI and LLCI of the specific indirect effects. It is recommended that the sample should be artificially increased to 1000 bootstraps at least, for obtaining the reliable results of mediations [67] and trust worthy confidence intervals [68,69]. However, we opted for an even larger no.…”

Purpose Universities are constantly searching for best practices to promote sustainability when it comes to educating students of the English language. Although this area of study has recently gained the attention of scholars around the world there is still a need to explore it from various perspectives. Objective This study aims to comprehensively investigate the impact of digital immersive technology on the education of English language students, specifically focusing on its potential to promote critical thinking and self-directed learning for achieving sustainability in education through teamwork. The research will assess the influence of digital immersive experiences on enhancing learning outcomes, examining their role in fostering critical thinking skills and encouraging self-directed learning practices. Additionally, the study explores the collaborative aspects of digital immersive technology, evaluating its contribution to teamwork among students. Methodology The objective was achieved by using a survey questionnaire to collect data from 304 registered students in various universities in Beijing. Data analysis was conducted by applying Mplus 7.0 software. Findings The findings revealed that the use of digital immersive technology was pivotal for achieving sustainable education both directly and indirectly to an extent. In addition, team working moderated all the respective paths except the path involving the use of digital immersive technology and critical thinking. Implications These results generated implications for teachers and policymakers to promote and facilitate the use of digital technology for teaching the English language to students, encouraging them to develop critical skills and self-directed learning strategies. The study also offered guidance and deeper understanding for researchers to address the concerns linked to the use of digital technology and sustainable education particularly in their future endeavors.

Recent intergovernmental panel on climate change reports have once again emphasised the effective measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the importance of the built environment. Historically, passive and active solutions are known for their potential to make the built environment more environmentally friendly. Recently, a significant number of studies covered the effectiveness of such solutions under distinct current and different future climate and emission predictions. Through the PRISMA framework, this paper presents a comprehensive state-of-the-art review of such studies within the last 10 years (2013–2023) to understand their impact, their tangible applications, and their empirical evidence. Local ecosystems, weather patterns, geographical and cultural challenges dictate the solutions for a warmer future. Among the solutions, as expected, passive solutions remain most effective even though a combination with active ones is necessary regardless of the context. The review in this paper is expandable beyond the effective reported solutions and it highlights the most effective solutions under different climate zones.
