Background: Computational thinking (CT) is an essential skill for preparing the younger generation to succeed in an AI-driven world, with pair programming emerging as a widely used approach to foster these skills. However, the role of individual factors and mutual engagement in shaping CT skills within pair programming remains underexplored,…

Background: Collaborative lesson planning is a crucial practice in teacher education, supporting pre-service teachers in lesson design and fostering professional development. While generative AI (GenAI) is increasingly integrated into education, its role in collaborative lesson planning remains unclear. Objectives: This study aims to explore how…

Background: Driven by the ongoing need to provide high-quality learning and teaching, universities recently have shown an increased interest in using learning analytics (LA) for improving learning design (LD). However, the evidence of such improvements is scarce, and the maturity of such research is unclear. Objectives: This study is aimed to…

Background: Despite educational advances, poor mathematics achievement persists among K-12 students, particularly in rural areas with limited resources and skilled teachers. Artificial Intelligence (AI) based systems have increasingly been adopted to support the diverse learning needs of students and have been shown to enhance mathematics…

Background: The growth of online education has provided flexibility and access to a wide range of courses. However, the self-paced and often isolated nature of these courses has been associated with increased dropout and failure rates. Researchers employed machine learning approaches to identify at-risk students, but multiple issues have not been…

Background: Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) shows promise in enhancing personalised learning and improving educational efficiency. However, its integration into education raises concerns about misinformation and over-reliance, particularly among adolescents. Teacher supervision plays a critical role in mitigating these risks and ensuring…

Background: Due to the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and the widespread adoption of online learning post-COVID-19, the metaverse has become an important strategy for innovative teaching. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the impact of the metaverse on learning engagement, learning emotions, and creative performance in…

Background: In the field of Learning Design, it is common that researchers analyse manually design artefacts created by practitioners, using pedagogically-grounded approaches (e.g., Bloom's Taxonomy), both to understand and later to support practitioners' design practices. Automatizing these high-level pedagogically-grounded analyses would enable…

Background: STEM education aims to develop innovation and problem-solving skills through interdisciplinary learning, yet struggles to foster student engagement and interdisciplinary thinking. Whilst alternate reality games (ARGs) can boost motivation via game-based problem-solving, integrating large language models (LLMs) remains underexplored.…

Background: Artificial Intelligence (AI) literacy is a crucial part of digital literacy that all individuals should possess in today's technologically advanced world. Despite the potential benefits that AI education offers, little research has been done on how to teach AI literacy to children. Objectives: This study aimed to fill that gap by…
