An academic must both read and write papers. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) can now do both. I draw on Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics to argue that reliance on AI outsources activities and reduces virtues necessary to achieve the purpose of academia--flourishing through the cultivation of reason. I highlight empirical research suggesting…

This article elaborates on the theoretical and practical aspects of the formation of a flexible strategy for a university's digital inclusion in a globalising world and the growth of the level of competition in the market of higher education services. The methodological framework of the article is based on the combination of theoretical aspects…

This paper elaborates on the concept of digital inclusion, which is implemented by Russian universities in the conditions of internationalization of higher education. Digital inclusion is considered a factor in an increase in social inclusion, which is combined with digital communications and expands the circle of persons involved in higher…

This study investigates the cultural experiences of higher education educators/academics while working outdoors in natural environments, 'unplugged' from technological and institutional systems.a) That disconnection from institutional/technological systems would catalyse re/connection with natural systems--the natural environment, our colleagues…

This study examines how university literature students evaluate alternative endings for George Orwell's "Animal Farm" that were either created by their peers or generated by ChatGPT. Using a rubric-based approach, students assessed these endings on elements such as conceptual relevance, literary devices, and overall narrative impact. By…

The release of a free generative artificial intelligence (GAI), ChatGPT, in November 2022 has opened up numerous opportunities for students with disabilities in higher education. While the transformative impact of GAI on teaching and learning in general is being debated intensively, little attention has been given to its potential for fostering or…

The literature on generative "Artificial Intelligence" (AI) in education primarily focuses on its immediate benefits and applications, such as personalized learning, student engagement, and content generation. However, there is a notable absence of empirical research concerning the holistic use of generative AI within educational…

This research was conducted to determine the attitudes of university students with different socio-economic structures towards information and communication technologies, using information and communication technologies (ICT), which are increasingly used in our daily life, by using a descriptive survey model and survey method. Günbatar (2014) and…

Background: ChatGPT, as a cutting-edge technology in education, is set to significantly transform the educational landscape, raising concerns about technological ethics and educational equity. Existing studies have not fully explored learners' intentions to adopt artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) technology, highlighting the need…

This study aims to conduct validity and reliability of a measurement tool developed to determine university students' levels of digital risk taking. 646 undergraduate students from 8 different universities voluntarily participated in the study. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to reveal the factor structure of the…

A standard learning outcome for students in humanities courses, from middle school into higher education, is to craft clear, specific arguments based on evidence. A common assignment to develop and assess this learning outcome is the take-home essay. Generative AI models, such as ChatGPT, Copilot, and Grammarly, are quickly able to generate such…

The study explores the role of AI-driven chatbots in fostering collaborative learning among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers. By examining the experiences of 25 pre-service EFL teachers who used a chatbot as part of their teacher training, the study investigates how the tool supports peer interactions, enhances collaborative learning,…

The rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into higher education has revolutionised academic research and teaching, offered transformative opportunities while raising significant ethical challenges. This Delphi study investigates the ethical dilemmas and institutional requirements for maintaining academic integrity in AI-driven…

Utilising a mixed-research method, this preliminary study explored the use of ChatGPT for seeking effective assignment feedback among a total of 11 adult learners in a graduate-level asynchronous online course in the Spring 2024 semester. Through analysing these learners' experiences on the activity of using ChatGPT to seek effective assignment…

Understanding of code is critical for debugging computer programs. Chunking, breaking code into smaller parts, has been proven to be an effective strategy for analyzing code at various levels of abstraction. Novice debuggers struggle to comprehend code and recognize its underlying structure and components. They often debug code in an arbitrary and…
