The proliferation of generative artificial intelligence challenges the credibility of assessment in higher education. This article advances a theoretical argument that universities must move beyond detection-based strategies towards ethically grounded, validity-driven assessment practices. Drawing on Ajzen's Theory of Planned Behaviour, Bandura's…

The launch of the powerful generative AI tool ChatGPT in November 2022 sparked a wave of fear across higher education. The tool could seemingly be used to write essays and do other work without students putting in the effort expected of them. In this paper, Jamie Herman and Henry Lara-Steidel posit a way of addressing the concerns over ChatGPT and…

To help young students succeed in problem-based learning (PBL), researchers suggested investigating students' need for cognition (NFC), one's inclination to exert mental effort during learning. How one puts mental effort into a learning task is related to motivation. If motivated, students are more likely to engage in challenging tasks, put in…

Since it became available free to the public in November of 2022, ChatGPT and other large-language model AIs have impacted the higher education classroom. Some fear that this is the end of essay-based assignments, as these are easily generated by ChatGPT. Principles of Genetics, an entry level genetics class, has previously incorporated a creative…

This paper argues that generative AI has become ubiquitous in academia, making irrelevant the debates about whether or not to allow it. Instead, the author advocates for transparency and accountability frameworks that acknowledge AI's presence while preserving academic integrity. The paper examines the challenges educators face: unreliable…

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…

Early identification of student success is crucial for enabling timely interventions, reducing dropout rates, and promoting on-time graduation. In educational settings, AI-powered systems have become essential for predicting student performance due to their advanced analytical capabilities. However, effectively leveraging diverse student data to…

This study investigates the capabilities of Large Language Models to simulate counselling clients in educational role-plays in comparison to human role-players. Initially, we recorded role-playing sessions, where novice counsellors interacted with human peers acting as clients, followed by role-plays between humans and clients simulated by…

Many universities utilized a reactive, piecemeal approach to adapt and rapidly reopen schools at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although schools were able to resume classes online relatively quickly, there was limited time to explore best practices for an optimal online learning environment. The pandemic exposed significant issues in the…

Student attendance declined during the COVID-19 pandemic and has not recovered to pre-pandemic levels. There is little evidence explaining the decline. This study examines the role of remote learning. In Michigan, compared to students never provided with remote-only learning in 2020-21, students provided with remote-only learning for 1-2 months…

This paper investigates a flipped classroom teaching model that integrates deep learning into the design of college physical education instruction. By adjusting the time schedule inside and outside the classroom, the model shifts the focus of teaching to students, and the teacher's role changes from knowledge transmitter to learning guide. The…

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Micro:bit applications with the participation of 6th grade students on students' attitudes towards coding. In addition participants' opinion regarding Micro:bit applications were examined. In this quantitative study, six-week applications with Micro:bit coding content were carried out using the…

This resource showcases innovative work from schools and districts that have developed custom data solutions to strengthen their student success systems. It's not a how-to guide for building District-Led Innovations (DLIs)--rather, it's a learning tool that honors the resourcefulness of educators who have crafted solutions to meet their unique…

Online learning technologies have turned into an essential part of education, particularly in this cutting-edge era of ICT. These technologies are becoming more and more popular in increasing educational access in impoverished nations. The ongoing investigation looks into the variables impacting students' use of online learning technologies in…

This study explored factors influencing ChatGPT adoption among higher education students in five Nordic countries (Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, and Iceland) and the USA. The unified theory of acceptance and use of technology 2 (UTAUT2) framework was employed and extended to incorporate personal innovativeness. Data was collected from 586…
