The significance of interdisciplinary learning has been well-recognized by higher education institutions. However, when teaching interdisciplinary learning to junior undergraduate students, their limited disciplinary knowledge and underrepresentation of students from some disciplines can hinder their learning performance. ChatGPT's ability to…

As a wide variety of intelligent technologies become part of everyday life, researchers have explored how people conceptualize agents that in some ways act and think like living things but are clearly machines. Much of this work draws upon the idea that people readily default to generalizing human-like properties to such agents, and only pare back…

This paper investigates crosslingual content scoring, a scenario where scoring models trained on learner data in one language are applied to data in a different language. We analyze data in five different languages (Chinese, English, French, German and Spanish) collected for three prompts of the established English ASAP content scoring dataset. We…

The launch of OpenAI ChatGPT's language-generation model has raised alarms within many sectors, especially the academic sector.

Despite the increased adoption of Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED), several concerns are still associated with it. This has motivated researchers to conduct (systematic) reviews aiming at synthesizing the AIED findings in the literature. However, these AIED reviews are diversified in terms of focus, stakeholders, educational level and…

The idea of Artificial intelligence (AI) has a long history in both research and fiction and has been applied in educational settings since the 1970s. However, the topic of AI underwent a huge increase of interest with the release of ChatGPT in late 2022, and more people were talking about generative AI (GenAI or GAI). According to some estimates,…
