Academic reading, a cornerstone of postgraduate education, often presents challenges, particularly for non-native English speakers. These include complex texts, extensive vocabulary, and integrating diverse sources. This study investigates the potential of ChatGPT as an academic reading tool for postgraduate students, emphasizing its usability,…

Combining formative practice with the primary expository content in a learning by doing method is a proven approach to increase student learning. Artificial intelligence has led the way for automatic question generation (AQG) systems that can generate volumes of formative practice otherwise prohibitive with human effort. One such AQG system was…

ChatGPT has emerged as a transformative technology with its remarkable ability to generate human-like responses, propelling its widespread adoption. While prior research has investigated the general landscape of AI-driven tools such as ChatGPT, the current study focuses specifically on exploring learners' experiences and perceptions regarding the…

This study examines the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots on the loss of human connection and emotional support among higher education students. To do so, a quantitative research design is employed. An online survey questionnaire is distributed to a sample of 819 higher education students, assessing concerns about human connection,…

ChatGPT is a new technological tool with the potential to impact education. Using Vergnaud's notion of "use schemes," we analyzed three interviews with engineering students who discovered ChatGPT and started to develop initial utilization schemes of the tool. Results showed that there were three domains of use of ChatGPT: (a) in…

Generative artificial intelligence (AI)-powered conversation agents such as ChatGPT are increasingly being used in teacher education. Although ChatGPT can provide ample resources for lesson planning, little attention has been paid to how teacher candidates construct prompts and evaluate AI-generated outputs in real time to develop lesson plans.…

Student opinions for a course are important to educators and administrators, regardless of the type of the course or the institution. Reading and manually analyzing open-ended feedback becomes infeasible for massive volumes of comments at institution level or online forums. In this paper, we collected and pre-processed a large number of course…

The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to investigate how generative AI tools, particularly ChatGPT, impact preservice teachers' lesson plans and attitudes toward mathematics. Fifty-five undergraduate students who were enrolled in their first semester of a teacher education program participated in the study. Each student created two lesson…

Intelligent Voice Assistants (IVAs) have become integral to many users' daily lives, using advanced algorithms to automate various tasks. Nevertheless, many users do not understand the underlying algorithms and how they work, posing potential risks to the competent and self-determined use of IVAs. This work develops three online training modules…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds significant potential to transform education, particularly in teaching methodologies and task completion. This study aims to identify the factors influencing the perceptions and behaviors of elementary education students in utilizing ChatGPT and Gemini to complete science-related assignments. The research design…

As aspiring educational leaders, principal candidates must understand the widespread impact of generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) in education. This qualitative phenomenological study explored the perceptions of aspiring educational leaders regarding Gen AI in academic research, highlighting the ethical concerns and challenges they…

The emergence of ChatGPT, an AI-powered language model, has sparked numerous debates and discussions. In educational research, scholars have raised significant questions regarding the potential, limitations, and ethical concerns around the use of this technology. While research on the application and implications of ChatGPT in academic settings…

This study investigates the impact and role of an instructional chatbot, ARUChatbot, in a distance education setting. Using a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, the research involved 130 students from Ardahan University's Basic Information Technologies course. Participants were selected through purposive sampling. Quantitative data were…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize education as it develops, offering dynamic, individualized, and effective learning experiences that might change teaching practices. However, there is still inconsistency and limitations in the integration and use of AI in Tanzanian universities. Therefore, the study delt to…

Educational chatbots (EC) have shown their promise in providing instructional support. However, limited studies directly explored the impact of EC on learners' emotional responses. This study investigated the induced emotions from interacting with micro-learning EC and how they impact learning motivation. In this context, the EC interactions…
