Artificial Intelligence (AI) is taking the world by storm. Higher education is not immune to this phenomenon and has many challenges in embracing AI. Much has been written lately concerning the typical application of AI in higher education, as well as in the classroom itself. The purpose of this paper is to gather information from students to…

Most regular practices of teacher-action research in ELT consist of identifying performance problems and providing specific treatments for the sake of improvement. However, teacher-action research does not dictate a specific methodology. The present teacher-action research is concerned with the implementation of an Advanced Prosody course in the…

The chemical experiment in this study is specifically created for undergraduate students studying energy and the environment. The target of the experiment is for students to comprehend the deactivation mechanism of the Ce/TiO[subscript 2] catalyst by oxides of phosphorus through practical experiments and enhance their knowledge of environmental…

In order to improve the accessibility and user friendliness of an accurately pretrained stacking ensemble machine learning regressor used to predict sulfate levels (mg/L) in Acid Mine Drainage (AMD), a Graphical User Interface (GUI) was developed using Python by combining human input with ChatGPT and deployed in the Jupyter Notebook environment.…

The bring-your-own-device policy (BYOD) in schools has recently attracted considerable research interest. BYOD allows students to learn subjects like mathematics using personal mobile devices. Accordingly, BYOD can increase students' desire to learn mathematics in school. In the study we report on here, we assessed 9th grade students' (n = 500)…

The purpose of this study was to assess the perceptions of undergraduate students enrolled in four asynchronous online agriculture education courses during the Fall semester of 2023 offered at one southeastern United States four-year public post-secondary institution regarding the use of X (formerly Twitter) during the first four weeks of…

The problem of the study was to determine if the use of a reflective writing assessment at the beginning, middle, and end of a college semester indicated an industrial technology student's knowledge and skills related to technological and engineering literacy. Experiences gained during project-based learning activities were used as the basis for…

Many students with disabilities use accessibility features and accommodations during instruction and when taking assessments.

The study used a quantitative correlational research method to examine the effects of eLearning and virtual instruction in Upstate South Carolina Title I school districts. The study also determined if there was a correlation between the geographic location of participating school districts and teachers' perceptions of various aspects of…

Discrete Choice Experiments (DCEs) are widely used in behavioral sciences to examine how humans value attributes of a technology, how those values drive decisions, and how they make trade-offs. The method has increasingly been used to inform technologies and interventions for addressing critical issues (e.g. disease and hunger). Different formats…
