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…

Guided by the Differential Susceptibility to Media Effects model, we examined the relations between parents' anxiety over their children's futures and their attitudes toward playful media for children and media featuring principles of direct instruction, as moderated by parent race (N = 600, quota sampled for race, children ages 3-7). Research has…

Purpose: Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has received significant traction in recent years for its ability to generate content based on human inputs. The aim of this study is to examine the existing literature on GenAI in management education by conducting a combination of bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review and…

This study aims to examine the studies on computer-assisted teaching in science teaching in terms of different variables with bibliometric analysis. Scopus database was used to collect the data. The phrase "science education and computer-assisted teaching" was written in Scopus on 11_07_2023, and 1232 publications were found. Since not…

This book equips early childhood professionals to grow their "screen awareness"--the knowledge and practices that uphold the developmental well-being and rights of children in a screen-based, media-centric society. The authors introduce the Screen-Aware Framework for Early Childhood (SAFEC), a versatile approach for making informed,…

Wearable sensor technology has significantly enhanced healthcare quality, including physical therapy. However, due to the design of current deep learning models, existing works often ignore the unique variations of rest intervals between repetitions and variations in individual user progress, potentially hindering effective therapy outcomes. To…

In this essay, we introduce "media quiteracy," which we use to conceptualize and describe the valuable learning that can happen through the refusal to take up new media or the act of pausing or ceasing its use. We see media quiteracy as an active and generative approach to learning and argue for its inclusion in the media literacy…

The growing popularity of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools presents new challenges for data quality in online surveys and experiments. This study examines participants' use of large language models to answer open-ended survey questions and describes empirical tendencies in human versus large language model (LLM)-generated text…

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…

Given that social media and the internet are primary sources of information for parents seeking guidance on child development, it is vital to investigate how screen time research is communicated and propagated online. This study examines 136 online articles about screen time published between 2016 and 2021, analyzing how sensationalism and…

Cognitive maps are mental representations of space essential for guiding spatial behavior. To assess the properties of these cognitive maps, sketch mapping has been widely used as a research tool in spatial cognition research. This scoping review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the methodologies and the cognitive processes concerning…

Purpose: Digital platforms and apps utilize a range of engaging features, structural guidance and algorithms to create and sustain immersive experiences. While immersion is crucial for captivation, initial adoption and early app use, limited research has explored its role in post-adoption behavior and habit formation. This study investigates these…

Methodological advancements for the study of learning processes are both shaped by and drivers of technology developments. Interaction Analysis (IA), as a core methodological approach over the past three decades is reflective of this relationship and can be understood by examining moves from analogue video tapes, to digital media, computational…

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…

In this study, the aim is to elucidate the relationship between digital technologies and the concept of leisure time. Digital leisure time can be defined as the time spent by individuals using digital tools and platforms for entertainment, recreation, acquiring knowledge, communication, socialization, and escaping from a negative mood state during…
