Large Language Models (LLMs) are rapidly gaining attention across the open-source and commercial fields, bolstered by their constantly growing capabilities. While such models have a vast array of applications, their integration into higher education--as supportive tools for lecturers--has been largely unexplored. Exploring this area entails…

Programming demands a variety of cognitive skills, and mastering these competencies is essential for success in computer science education. The importance of formative feedback is well acknowledged in programming education, and thus, a diverse range of techniques has been proposed to generate and enhance formative feedback for programming…

Understanding students' multi-party epistemic and topic based-dialogue contributions, or how students present knowledge in group-based chat interactions during collaborative game-based learning, offers valuable insights into group dynamics and learning processes. However, manually annotating these contributions is labor-intensive and challenging.…

The current insertion of Machine Learning (ML) in our everyday life demonstrates the importance of introducing the teaching of a basic understanding of ML already in school. Accompanying this trend arises the need to assess the students' learning of ML, yet so far only a few assessment models have been proposed, most of them rather simple, based…

This article examines the application of Quality management principles to learning in the age of AI and digital transformation. The traditional model is considered to be inadequate in coping with modern challenges associated with AI deployment due to concerns of privacy, transparency, and measurement of outcomes. A conceptual model that is…

Generative AI tools, like ChatGPT, have ignited global discussions and debates about potential educational impacts. By examining initial reactions to ChatGPT shared in online spaces, this study aims to deepen understanding of opportunities and concerns related to integrating such tools into education. With the keyword "chatgpt," we…

Background: Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) chatbots extend transformative impact in higher education. Current research requires more comprehensive evaluations of the collaborative learning fostered by students and GenAI chatbots. However, existing articles have rarely explored the dynamic process of student--AI collaboration in higher…

Background: Computational thinking (CT) is an essential skill for preparing the younger generation to succeed in an AI-driven world, with pair programming emerging as a widely used approach to foster these skills. However, the role of individual factors and mutual engagement in shaping CT skills within pair programming remains underexplored,…

This qualitative case study explored graduate students' views (n=6) on AI-supported applications and an AI-enabled blockbased coding tool (PictoBlox) in science education. Data were gathered over a 39-hour implementation via a semi-structured interview form and screen captures from the activities, and analyzed with content analysis. Participants…

SRI Education researchers conducted an expert interview series, engaging a diverse group of researchers and practitioners in meaningful conversations about AI literacy in K-12. Drawing from these in-depth interviews with qualitative analysis, this report uncovers key themes that reveal the current state of AI literacy in K-12, the challenges we…

The introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) into education holds promise for supporting and augmenting teaching and learning-related activities. Yet, despite its potential, there is limited empirical research on the use of AI in K-12 settings exploring the pedagogical grounding, impact and implications of the technological solutions. The…

As artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming more integrated into the field of healthcare, medical students need to learn foundational AI literacy. Yet, traditional, descriptive teaching methods of AI topics are often ineffective in engaging the learners. This article introduces a new application of cinema to teaching AI concepts in medical…

Although interactive software has long been employed to complement traditional lecture and laboratory classes, instructors have typically been limited to premade programs produced by others with significant programming experience. Furthermore, many existing programs have limited platform cross-compatibility, with few compatible with the most…

Research has shown that emotional intelligence programmes can help improve adolescents' mental health, well-being, and behaviour. Although they are primarily applied in the school context, such programmes can also be adapted to specific populations. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of an emotional intelligence programme for…

Over the past few decades, technology-enhanced learning has positioned instructional design as a crucial catalyst for academic innovation within higher education. The emergence and rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) are now reshaping instructional design practices. This review study reveals a rapidly expanding ecosystem of AI tools…
