This multi-case study investigates how AI chatbots enhance asynchronous learning by fostering critical ideation, structured argumentation, and collaborative knowledge construction across three U.S. higher education institutions. Drawing on a socio-material perspective, we examine the socio-material assemblages formed through interactions between…

At present, the research on the teacher-student interaction (TSI) mode in smart classroom (SC) was not in-depth enough, and a few studies mainly focuses on top-down theoretical deduction. This study adopted a bottom-up approach to study the TSI modes in SC and proposed specific implementation suggestions, which had important theoretical value and…

This case-study analyzed the pedagogical uses of 1:1 devices at a mid-cost private school in India. Relying on interviews, classroom observations, and naturalistic qualitative approaches, we categorized classroom technology use according to the PICRAT model of technology--Passive-Interactive-Creative and Replacement-Amplification-Transformation.…

The rapid development of Generative Artificial Intelligence in education presents new opportunities but also raises concerns about inequality and the integrity of academic practices. This study explores its impact, trends, and risks in education through an extensive review of existing academic literature. The methodology includes a systematic…

Purpose: Current knowledge and research on students' utilization and interaction with generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools in their academic work is limited. This study aims to investigate students' engagement with these tools. Design/methodology/approach: This research used survey-based research to investigate generative AI literacy…

Potential ethical concerns…

This study aims at exploring the role of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in scientific inquiry and giving some implications for teaching scientific inquiry by examining the interactions between secondary students and AI during the design of open-ended physics experiments. A generative AI assistant was developed to support this process and…

Augmented reality (AR) is an emergent technology beginning to be integrated into many disciplines such as engineering, architecture, and medical fields for educational purposes. The present study builds on a pilot study conducted in the spring of 2022 exploring how AR can be employed in Environmental Education (EE) by providing just-in-time…

This study substantiates the feasibility of implementing Web 2.0 services in practical educational activities and classifies the main types of Web 2.0 services adaptive to educational goals. A survey of 58 teachers from the First Moscow State Medical University, Kuban State Technological University, the Herzen State Pedagogical University of…

Leadership style research spans many areas both inside and outside of education. This study sought to add to that research by looking at the leadership of technology directors in education. This population was targeted because gaps in student abilities versus performance needs have only expanded over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic and the…

The rise of generative artificial intelligence (GAI), especially with multimodal large language models like GPT-4o, sparked transformative potential and challenges for learning and teaching. With potential as a cognitive offloading tool, GAI can enable learners to focus on higher-order thinking and creativity. Yet, this also raises questions about…

The development of conversational artificial intelligence (AI) has brought about new opportunities for improving the learning experience in education. ChatGPT, a large language model trained on a vast corpus of text, has the potential to revolutionize education by enhancing learning through personalized and interactive conversations. This paper…

Role-play tasks have long been used by researchers and practitioners to observe L2 (Second language) speaking performance. This social-situated simulation allows students to employ their language skills to converse about real-life themes. While role-plays are highly plausible to actively engage students in interactive learning environments, it has…
