Human intelligence is related to cognitive skills such as the acquisition of new knowledge, problem-solving and abstract thinking in learning processes. These processes are of great importance in mathematical education. Artificial intelligence (AI) can help students develop these cognitive skills by providing customized teaching methods according…

This report describes the process of developing and validating the enhanced ACT. The report describes the changes made to the test content and the processes by which these design decisions were implemented. The authors describe how they shared the overall scope of the enhancements, including the initial blueprints, with external expert panels,…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology is reshaping the ways humans study and work across various disciplines. In the field of music, AI technology shows its possibility to empower individuals at diverse levels of musical knowledge in music creation, from novices to experts. In this article, I explore philosophical questions within both AI…

It is argued that logic, and in particular mathematical logic, should play a key role in the undergraduate curriculum for students in the computing fields, which include electrical engineering (EE), computer engineering (CE), and computer science (CS). This is based on (1) the history of the field of computing and its close ties with logic, (2)…

Purpose: The advent of information and communication technology (ICT)-driven innovations changed people's lives in a big way. Virtual reality (VR) technology is an innovation that helps in digital transformation across several industries. This research aims to investigate the adoption of virtual reality (VR) technology in secondary school…

The rapid advancement of generative AI technologies is increasingly accompanied by their broader application across various sectors, particularly within creative industries. In this study, IBM Watson BEAT software, based on generative AI technology, was tested as an educational tool in the process of teaching music composition theory to flute…

Integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT into education has reshaped academic practices, offering students innovative ways to engage with learning tasks. This study examines the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral factors influencing undergraduate students' engagement with ChatGPT, guided by the technology acceptance…

This design case details the ten-year (2014-present) iterative process to design and develop a graph-based computer-assisted program to support middle school students' development of collaborative argumentation. We begin by describing the first two iterations of the design and discuss how we learned from the process failures. This paper focuses on…

Objective: To determine if using the Snackability app improves snack intake among college students. Participants: US college students with overweight/obesity were recruited in June 2020-April 2021. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted to test the Snackability app use for 12 wk on snack scores (calculated from the app) compared to…

This study investigates how anthropomorphic AI chatbot avatars, designed in line with the Stereotype Content Model (SCM) dimensions of warmth and competence, influence university students' perceptions of support for self-directed learning (SDL) activities. We examined student responses to two distinct avatars--one projecting warmth and the other…

Students in U.S. elementary schools continue to experience difficulty learning to read, with some attributing these difficulties to a lack of alignment with the Science of Reading (SOR). Social media plays a prominent role in disseminating information about the SOR, serving as a platform for discussion and debate that reflects many tenets of…

Mobile apps have surged in popularity, enhancing the effectiveness of more traditional second or foreign language (L2) teaching and enabling independent L2 learning. Drawing on control-value theory, the present research examined the role of students' control-value appraisals in enhancing behavioral engagement via enjoyment and boredom in specific…

The History of Design course is a foundational component for art and design students; however, many students perceive it as abstract and unengaging, mainly due to its highly conceptual nature and traditional lecture-based teaching methods. To address these challenges, this study investigates the impact of AI-generated virtual instructors and a…

Regular expressions (REs) are often taught to undergraduate computer science majors in the Formal Languages and Automata (FLA) course; they are widely used to implement different software functionalities such as search mechanisms and data validation in diverse fields. Despite their importance, the difficulty of REs has been asserted many times in…

This article explores differences between women's and men's views on teaching and learning in undergraduate computer science studies at a Canadian university. The research focuses on perceptions and experiences about learning activities and teaching computer science and how students and teachers view these aspects as valuable for these activities.…
