While generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools are gradually being integrated into educational practice, their actual usability in classroom settings remains insufficiently understood. This mixed-methods research was designed as a small-sample pilot study, offering preliminary insights to inform a future large-scale scientific evaluation. The…

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…

As online education becomes increasingly common in language learning, there is a pressing need to understand how students experience bichronous (synchronous and asynchronous) teaching formats in second language learning contexts. Drawing on qualitative group interviews with participants enrolled in an SFI (Swedish for Immigrants) program, the…

Digital games are powerful for health education and can improve health determinants and behaviors, yet limited research focuses on their effectiveness in enhancing adolescent sexual and reproductive health.

Intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) may augment military training systems and mitigate existing limitations in training personnel and resources. A study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of an embedded rifle marksmanship ITS for Moving Targets (MT-ITS). MT-ITS has two main components: (1) a Smart Sight System that provides a…

Students' perception of excessive difficulty in STEM degrees lowers their motivation and, therefore, affects their performance. According to prior research, the use of gamification techniques promote engagement, motivation, and fun when learning. Badges, which are a distinction that is given as a reward to students, are a well-known gamification…
