While the use of generative AI (genAI) in K12 schools is increasing, it is poorly understood from a policy perspective. There are significant tensions in technology integration in education between public interests for social good and pressure from educational technology companies to view schools as markets. This study examined genAI policy…

Background: As highly interactive hands-on learning tools, robots can inspire new generations of mathematics students. However, to date, no comprehensive systematic reviews have been conducted on robot-assisted mathematics education from K-12 through higher education. Hence, it is important to explore the research evidence of robot-assisted…

Artificial intelligence (AI) isn't simply a new classroom tool -- it is a transformative force that requires intentional planning, structured professional learning, and ongoing assessment of how educators are learning and integrating these technologies into their practice. Soon after generative AI tools became widely available, Township High…
