Background: The recent discussion of introducing artificial intelligence (AI) knowledge to K-12 students, like many engineering and technology education topics, has attracted a wide range of stakeholders and resources for school curriculum development. While teachers often have to directly interact with external stakeholders out of the public…

With the increased popularity of electronic textbooks, there is a growing interest in developing a new generation of "intelligent textbooks," which have the ability to guide readers according to their learning goals and current knowledge. Intelligent textbooks extend regular textbooks by integrating machine-manipulable knowledge, and the…

Researchers have become increasingly interested in response times to survey items as a measure of cognitive effort. We used machine learning to develop a prediction model of response times based on 41 attributes of survey items (e.g., question length, response format, linguistic features) collected in a large, general population sample. The…

This review is aimed at synthesizing current findings concerning technology-based cognitive offloading and the associated effects on learning and memory. While cognitive externalization (i.e., using the environment to outsource mental computation) is a highly useful technique in various problem-solving tasks, a growing body of research suggests…

Design science research (DSR) is taught in university courses and used by students for their final theses. For successfully learning DSR, it is important to learn to apply it to real-world problems. However, students not only need to learn the new DSR paradigm (meta-level) but also need to develop an understanding of the problem domain…

The aim of this article is to use decolonial thinking, as applied in the field of AI, to explore the ethical and pedagogical implications for higher education teaching and learning. The questions driving this article are: What does a decolonial approach to AI imply for higher education teaching and learning? How can educators, researchers and…

Data mining approaches have been widely used to estimate student performance in online education. Various Machine Learning (ML) based data mining techniques have been developed to evaluate student performance accurately. However, they face specific issues in implementation. Hence, a novel hybrid Elman Neural with Apriori Mining (ENAM) approach was…

This article discusses the level of digital citizenship development in Kosovo as the newest country as well as representing the youngest population in Europe. The development of this article is based on a quantitative study as well as qualitative analysis of generated statistical results and the role of the public institution in awareness,…

This paper delves into statistical disparities between human-written and ChatGPT-generated texts, utilizing an analysis of Shannon's equitability values, and token frequency. Our findings indicate that Shannon's equitability can potentially be a differentiating factor between texts produced by humans and those generated by ChatGPT. Additionally,…

Artificial intelligence (AI), as emerging technology, is being pursued by our peer and near-peer adversaries to gain an asymmetric warfighting advantage which poses a direct and existential threat to our national security. The purpose of this action research study is to investigate curriculum design to implement AI literacy education at the senior…

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has continued to advance at a stunning pace since our last publication on GenAI in education in spring 2023. In that first article of a two-part series, we discussed the overall dynamic frontier of GenAI, its potential uses and benefits in education, the essential abilities required in the age of GenAI,…

An effective educational program warrants the inclusion of an innovative construction that enhances the higher education efficacy in such a way that accelerates the achievement of desired results and reduces the risk of failures. Educational decision support system has currently been a hot topic in educational systems, facilitating the pupil…

Efforts to include people with disabilities in design education are difficult to scale, and dynamics of participation need to be carefully planned to avoid putting unnecessary burdens on users. However, given the scale of emerging AI-enhanced technologies and their potential for creating new vulnerabilities for marginalized populations, new…

While Reinforcement learning (RL), especially Deep RL (DRL), has shown outstanding performance in video games, little evidence has shown that DRL can be successfully applied to human-centric tasks where the ultimate RL goal is to make the "human-agent interactions" productive and fruitful. In real-life, complex, human-centric tasks, such…

In this paper, I argue that the fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and education have been deeply intertwined since the early days of AI. Specifically, I show that many of the early pioneers of AI were cognitive scientists who also made pioneering and impactful contributions to the field of education. These researchers saw AI as a tool for…
