Challenge: As biomedical engineers revolutionize medicine, biomedical engineering programs must adapt to the diverse learning styles of the current student population. Students are learning in new ways and instructional strategies need to be adopted. Novel Initiative: Understanding generational attributes is crucial for developing effective…

In recent years, educators have encountered significant shifts in teaching methodologies driven by rapid technological advancements and evolving demands in higher education. This transition has prompted adaptations in teaching practices and digital approaches, resulting in a broader paradigm shift across institutions. This study explores faculty…

This paper explores the integration of AI, specifically ChatGPT, into multicultural education, utilizing John Dewey's experiential learning philosophy to foster reflective thinking and democratic citizenship. We propose a three-pathway framework -- Transmissional, Transactional, and Transformative (TTT) -- grounded in Dewey's principles of…

In fall 2023, Ithaka S+R launched a collective research project with the objective of studying generative AI's impact on teaching, learning, and research at the postsecondary level. Through a collaboration with 19 universities from across the US and Canada, the "Making AI Generative for Higher Education" project has provided an…

Despite the growing enthusiasm for ChatGPT in classrooms, many teachers still approach its use without a clear, structured framework. This paper contends that to truly harness its potential, ChatGPT must be employed with intentionality, guided by research-backed cognitive science strategies. It outlines ten cognitive strategies and practical…

Background: Foundation phase teachers are encouraged to develop learners' number sense skills in their teaching and learning activities. Despite the significance of teaching number skills in mental mathematics activities, there are inadequate guidelines that could assist teachers in developing number sense skills through technology-enhanced mental…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of artificial intelligencesupported teaching practices on students' attitudes and course outcomes in the visual arts course at the 6th grade level of secondary school. The research was conducted in a private middle school in Mersin province, Turkey, in the second semester of the 2023-2024…

The study investigates the effects of AI-enhanced multi-display language teaching systems on English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. Utilizing a pretest-posttest random assignment experimental design, the research involved 302 EFL students aged 19 to 28 in a higher education setting. The study examines the effects of AI-powered virtual…

Students in higher education increasingly integrate emerging technologies to enrich their learning experiences. Universal tools such as virtual classrooms, multimedia presentations, and learning management systems are now widely employed in teaching and learning activities. However, Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are not yet commonly used…

The possibilities for integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs) into higher education may revolutionise approaches to pedagogical practices and curriculum design, while LLMs could be transformative in how students approach their learning. This conversation with ChatGPT, and associated critical evaluation,…

Talking productively with students and sufficiently integrating technology into mathematics classrooms have long been regarded as two hurdles for mathematics teachers. To enhance preservice mathematics teachers' dialogic teaching skills and integration of GeoGebra-scaffolded dynamic visualizations, this study proposed and examined the…

The purpose of this qualitative study is to explore how middle school science teachers enact the practice of using technology to support collaborative argumentation in their science classroom. This study employs qualitative case study and drew on data sources of interviews and observations. This study identifies two themes. Six teachers regard…

This research aimed to investigate the structural relationships among teachers' computational thinking (CT), design thinking (DT), robotics teaching beliefs, and robotics pedagogical content knowledge (RPCK). A total of 98 in-service and pre-service teachers who participated in a robotics teaching professional development workshop served as the…

This study investigates the integration of 21st-century skills into the teaching practices of pre-service teachers during their off-campus experiences. Focusing on essential skills such as critical thinking, collaboration, communication, creativity, self-direction, and the use of technology, this research aims to identify which skills are most…

Digital technologies and the instructional contexts in which they are embedded can increase students' access to meaningful learning opportunities. Although there is a tradition of designing and integrating digital tools in secondary-grades project-based science instruction to enhance learners' access to disciplinary learning, the elementary grades…
