Artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing technologies have fuelled the growth of Pedagogical Conversational Agents (PCAs) with empathic conversational capabilities. However, no systematic literature review has explored the intersection between conversational agents, education and emotion. Therefore, this study aimed to outline…

Automated writing evaluation (AWE) provides an instant and cost-effective alternative to human feedback in assessing student writing, and therefore is widely used as a pedagogical supportive tool in writing instruction. However, studies on how students perceive the usage of AWE as a surrogate writing tutor in out-of-class autonomous learning are…

Programming demands a variety of cognitive skills, and mastering these competencies is essential for success in computer science education. The importance of formative feedback is well acknowledged in programming education, and thus, a diverse range of techniques has been proposed to generate and enhance formative feedback for programming…

One-on-one tutoring is widely acknowledged as an effective instructional method, conditioned on qualified tutors. However, the high demand for qualified tutors remains a challenge, often necessitating the training of novice tutors (i.e., trainees) to ensure effective tutoring. Research suggests that providing timely explanatory feedback can…

The most critical parameter of audio and video information output is the playback speed, which affects many viewing or listening metrics, including when learning using tutoring systems. However, the availability of quantitative models for personalized playback speed control considering the learner's personal traits is still an open question. The…

Feedback is crucial for improving student learning. In this regard, overcoming the transmissive conception of feedback in favour of its dialogic function introduces new reflections concerning the internal generative feedback process. In this regard, Nicol [(2020). The power of internal feedback: Exploiting natural comparator processes.…

This study aimed to assess and compare the development of mathematical procedures on the part of Grade 7 students using an intelligent tutoring system on a digital platform. The sample comprised 96 students from Khon Kaen University Demonstration School, Thailand, divided equally into experimental and control groups. The experimental group worked…

This study investigates the effectiveness of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) in supporting students with varying levels of programming experience. Through a mixed-methods research design, the study explores the impact of ITS on student performance, adaptability to different skill levels, and best practices for utilizing ITS in heterogeneous…

Knowledge tracing models have enabled a range of intelligent tutoring systems to provide feedback to students. However, existing methods for knowledge tracing in learning sciences are predominantly reliant on statistical data and instructor-defined knowledge components, making it challenging to integrate AI-generated educational content with…

This study examined the effectiveness of an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) driven by real-time feedback in enhancing students' mathematical learning outcomes, as defined by the Structure of Observed Learning Outcomes. Conducted within the domains of Measurement and Geometry, the study employed a randomized controlled trial involving 120…

Many AIED systems support self-regulated learning, yet, support for setting and achieving practice goals has received little attention. We examine how middle school students respond to system-recommended practice goals, building on the success of similar data-driven recommendations in other domains. We introduce an adaptive dashboard in an…

This paper describes LOGAX, an interactive tutoring tool that gives hints and feedback to a student who stepwise constructs a Hilbert-style axiomatic proof in propositional logic. LOGAX generates proofs to calculate hints and feedback. We compare these generated proofs with expert proofs and student solutions, and conclude that the quality of the…

Recent technologies have extended opportunities for online dance learning by overcoming the limitations of space and time. However, dance teachers report that student-teacher interaction is more likely to be challenging in a distant and asynchronous learning environment than in a conventional dance class, such as a dance studio. To address this…

The digital transformation of education is greatly accelerating in various computer-supported applications. As a particularly prominent application of the human-machine interactive system, intelligent learning systems aim to capture users' current intentions and provide recommendations through real-time feedback. However, we have a limited…

Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) possess significant potential to enhance learning outcomes. However, deploying ITSs in global south countries presents challenges due to their frequent lack of essential technological resources, such as computers and internet access. The concept of AIED Unplugged has emerged to bridge this digital divide,…
