The aim of this study is to investigate the primary and middle school students' skills of saying 'no' in terms of having special ability, gender, location and age. The study was designed based on the correlational survey model. Population of the study was selected in accordance to convenient sampling method because of time and fund limitations for…

Education Technology (EdTech) companies are deploying emotional AI to quantify social and emotional learning. Focusing on facial coding emotional AI that uses computer vision and algorithms to see, recognise, categorise and learn about facial expressions of emotion, this paper evaluates nascent usage of these technologies in education. To do this,…

Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a topic of interest among information technology innovators. As AI is refined, practical uses of the technology to improve the transfer of information are increasingly investigated, developed, and adopted in a variety of public environments, including in libraries. Given the relatively recent emergence…

Ambridge calls for exemplar-based accounts of language acquisition. Do modern neural networks such as transformers or word2vec -- which have been extremely successful in modern natural language processing (NLP) applications -- count? Although these models often have ample parametric complexity to store exemplars from their training data, they also…

Educational artificial intelligence (EAI) refers to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to support personalized and automated feedback and guidance in the educational field. Inevitably, it serves as a more important part of the educational system in the coming years. However, novel development in this field has been inadequately reviewed and…

We used two simple unsupervised machine learning techniques to identify differential trajectories of change in children who undergo intensive working memory (WM) training. We used self-organizing maps (SOMs)--a type of simple artificial neural network--to represent multivariate cognitive training data, and then tested whether the way tasks are…

Learning involves a substantial amount of cognitive, social and emotional states. Therefore, recognizing and understanding these states in the context of learning is key in designing informed interventions and addressing the needs of the individual student to provide personalized education. In this paper, we explore the automatic detection of…

This mixed research aims to analysis and design the Web Game On Descriptive Statistics (WGODS) through the ADDIE model, data science and machine learning. The sample consists of 61 students from a university in Mexico. WGODS is a technological tool (quiz game) that presents various questions and answers about statistics (quantitative and…

With an increase in the number of colleges and universities using virtual reality and augmented reality integrated programs, specific insight for exploring immersive learning approaches utilizing virtual and augmented reality tools and applications in a variety of disciplines is needed. In some instances, pedagogical approaches for creating…

New technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), enablers of big data analysis, blockchain data systems, robotics, and drones are transforming marketing. Marketing education has adapted over the last 120 years driven by changes in marketing technology that have helped shape the courses taught. Marketing educators are facing challenges in…

This report is a "Future of the Internet" canvassing Pew Research Center and Imagining the Internet Center have conducted together to get expert views about important digital issues. In this case the questions focused on the future of democracy, the problems digital technology has created and possible solutions to those problems. Pew…

Researchers often include covariates when they analyze the results of randomized controlled trials (RCTs), valuing the increased precision of the estimates over the potential of inducing small-sample bias when doing so. In this paper, we develop a sufficient condition which ensures that the inclusion of covariates does not induce small-sample bias…

Civil discourse is our most basic form of civic engagement. In a democracy, it is our best tool for collectively answering a society's most fundamental question: "What shall we do?" While most of us have no doubt participated in political discussions, engaging in civil discourse that is productive (i.e., dialogue that "fosters…

The statistical structure of a given language likely drives our sensitivity to words' morphological structure. The current work begins to investigate to what degree morphological processing effects observed in visual word recognition can be attributed to statistical regularities between orthography and semantics in English, without any prior…

Generic competency development activities (GCDAs) help students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, innovation, creativity, communication and social skills. This study evaluated students' acceptance of a machine learning-assisted recommendation system (MARS) developed to recommend GCDAs for students in a higher education institution. This…
