Automated detection of facial emotions has been an interesting topic for multiple decades in social and behavioral research but is only possible very recently. In this tutorial, we review three popular artificial intelligence based emotion detection programs that are accessible to R programmers: Google Cloud Vision, Amazon Rekognition, and…

Despite the growing research interest in the use of large language models for feedback provision, it still remains unknown how students perceive and use AI-generated feedback compared to instructor feedback in authentic settings. To address this gap, this study compared instructor and AI-generated feedback in a Java programming course through an…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly emerged as a powerful tool with the potential to enhance learning environments. However, effective use of new technologies in education requires a good understanding of the technology and good design for its use. Generative AI such as ChatGPT requires particularly well-designed instructions due to its ease…

Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) hold significant promise for improving physics education research that uses machine learning. In this study, we compare the application of various models for conducting a large-scale analysis of written text grounded in a physics education research classification problem: identifying skills in…

Data science has become an increasingly popular topic among engineering students and practitioners as high-profile engineering applications of machine learning and artificial intelligence continue to make headlines. Companies in engineering domains are placing a growing emphasis on hiring engineers who can extract insights and create value from…

Purpose: This study investigates the impact of AI-assisted pair programming on undergraduate students' intrinsic motivation, programming anxiety, and performance, relative to both human-human pair programming and individual programming approaches. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was conducted over two academic years (2023-2024) with 234…

This paper proposes a framework for integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools into statistical training for Doctor of Education (EdD) students. The rigorous demands of doctoral education, coupled with the challenges of learning complex statistical software and coding language, often lead to anxiety and frustration among students,…

This study aims to provide a descriptive and bibliometric analysis of the trend of artificial intelligence (AI) application in the development of computational thinking (CT) skills in publications from 2007 to 2024. A total of 191 articles were obtained from Scopus database with certain keywords, and analyzed using Biblioshiny and VOSviewer. The…

Programming education often imposes a high cognitive burden on novice programmers, requiring them to master syntax, logic, and problem-solving while simultaneously managing debugging tasks. Prior knowledge is a critical factor influencing programming learning performance. A lack of foundational knowledge limits students' self-regulated learning…

Mastering correct pronunciation is crucial for effective Spanish language learning and communication. However, many existing language learning resources lack adequate coverage of pronunciation guidance and feedback mechanisms. This study aims to address this gap by developing SpanishBot, an innovative chatbot designed to facilitate the learning of…
