As artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly influences education, understanding learners' experiences, engagement and literacy of these tools is critical. This study explores AI literacy among Turkish English as a Foreign Language students regarding their familiarity, knowledge, and ethical perceptions of AI technologies in academic writing.…

Artificial intelligence (AI) competence in education is a set of skills that enable teachers to ethically and responsibly develop, apply, and evaluate AI for learning and teaching processes. While AI competence becomes a key competence for teachers, current research on the acceptance and use of AI in classroom practice with a specific focus on the…

Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) has demonstrated remarkable potential in both educational practice and research, particularly in areas, such as personalized learning, adaptive assessment, innovative teaching methods, and cross-cultural communication. However, it faces several significant challenges, including the comprehension of complex…

Written assignments for large classes pose a far more significant challenge in the age of the GenAI revolution. Suggestions such as oral exams and formative assessments are not always feasible with many students in a class. Therefore, we conducted a study in South Africa and involved 280 Honors students to explore the usefulness of Turnitin's AI…

The "community of inquiry" framework examines the interplay between four kinds of presence (teaching, cognitive, social, and learner) to promote effective learning in online education. This paper investigates the impact of "instructor participation" ("IP"), a key component of "teaching presence," on student…

Utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) technology in educational institutions for students with mild intellectual disabilities offers promising avenues for enhancing this population's learning outcomes and skill development. This study aims to investigate the effect of using generative conversational AI to improve English communication skills…

High-quality science assessments are multi-dimensional. They promote disciplinary practices, core ideas, cross-cutting concepts, and science sense-making. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of using generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), specifically multimodal large language models (MLLMs), to annotate and provide improvement…

The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) and the extensive use of social media have transformed how students engage with educational materials and interact with their peers. Collaborative learning (CL) platforms, empowered by artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, have gained popularity due to their potential to enhance…

Educators are at the forefront of shaping the future of education, particularly as technological advances introduce new tools and methods. Generative AI is a powerful tool capable of producing high-quality content based on properly constructed user prompts. While these advancements present significant opportunities, they also pose challenges. This…

Role-play activities are considered a useful instructional design in enhancing the speaking performance of foreign language learners. However, in the traditional classroom context, learners may not readily have access to interlocutors for role-play activities. In this study, we proposed a designed method that integrated the GenAI agent into…

This paper explores the integration of AI, specifically ChatGPT, into multicultural education, utilizing John Dewey's experiential learning philosophy to foster reflective thinking and democratic citizenship. We propose a three-pathway framework -- Transmissional, Transactional, and Transformative (TTT) -- grounded in Dewey's principles of…

In fall 2023, Ithaka S+R launched a collective research project with the objective of studying generative AI's impact on teaching, learning, and research at the postsecondary level. Through a collaboration with 19 universities from across the US and Canada, the "Making AI Generative for Higher Education" project has provided an…

This qualitative study investigates the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support students' independent learning within a flipped classroom (FC) pedagogy. The main challenge of FC has been students' insufficient preparation for classroom activities. To address the challenge the Essentials of Business Law course was implemented with FC…

The integration of Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and cybersecurity presents new opportunities for innovation and entrepreneurship, yet traditional educational approaches often lack the interdisciplinary and applied focus required to develop these competencies. This study evaluates the impact of an experiential learning…

This article proposes a novel conceptual framework that integrates Artificial Intelligence (AI) with Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) and the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning (CTML) to enhance Open Distance eLearning (ODeL) systems. By bridging the gap between traditional cognitive theories and cutting-edge AI technologies, this framework…
