This article proposes a critical typology of five emerging responses to artificial intelligence (AI) in language education, from prohibition and hype to critical engagement, highlighting the assumptions, tensions, and possibilities each orientation embodies. This typology serves as a reflective tool to examine how educators and institutions are…

Many technology acceptance models used in education were originally designed for general technologies and later adopted by education researchers. This study extends Davis' technology acceptance model to specifically evaluate educational technologies in higher education, focusing on virtual classrooms. Prior research informed the construction of…

Background: ChatGPT, as a cutting-edge technology in education, is set to significantly transform the educational landscape, raising concerns about technological ethics and educational equity. Existing studies have not fully explored learners' intentions to adopt artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) technology, highlighting the need…

We begin our introduction by acknowledging the valid anxieties of faculty who face rapid technological change brought on by Generative AI (GenAI) tools without adequate institutional support or training. While some scholars advocate for GenAI resistance and others for wholesale adoption, the voices included within this volume argue for a balanced,…

Educators hold diverse beliefs and attitudes about generative artificial intelligence (AI). Irrespective of their stance, many acknowledge AI's growing influence and the pressing need for greater AI literacy. In this case study, we draw on Davis's (1989) technology acceptance model (TAM) to examine how two English teachers, Fiona and Margot,…

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of widely adopted but under-studied synthetic humanlike spokespersons (SHS) compared to organic human spokespersons in workplace training videos. The primary aim is to evaluate whether employees will rate training videos more negatively when they perceive their trainer to be synthetic such…

This study, grounded in the stimulus-organism-response (SOR) theory, aims to explore how stimulus factors (school support) influence cognitive organisms (psychological resilience, self-efficacy, attitude toward AI, and acceptance of AI), which in turn enhance behavioral responses (AI literacy), while also examining the detrimental effects of AI…

The purpose of this study is to look at how a music programming course affects the development of computational thinking in undergraduate music conservatory students. In addition to teaching the fundamentals of computational thinking, music programming, and logic, the course addresses the Four C's of education. The change in students' attitudes…

Immersive technologies strive to enhance users' digital experiences by enabling more interactive, engaging, and realistic virtual environments. Despite the growing popularity and advancements in immersive technologies, achieving widespread user acceptance remains a significant challenge. In addition, previous acceptance models may not fully…

Artificial intelligence is increasingly integrated into daily life, and modern educated individuals should have the ability to use AI tools correctly to improve work, study, and life efficiency. In this context, artificial intelligence literacy has been proposed. Due to the lack of consensus on the constructs of artificial intelligence literacy,…

Current educational trends leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to provide high-quality teaching and enhance students' learning competitiveness. This study aimed to evaluate the acceptance of artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) for assisted learning and design creation among art and design students. Based on an extended technology…

The implementation of virtual reality (VR) has gained popularity in the organizational settings in responding to the digital transformation in the era of Industry 4.0. VR offers immersive and authentic experiences for learners through simulated real-life scenarios during training. While the affordances have been widely discussed, there is a need…

How and why science education scholars and practitioners might use artificial intelligence (AI) in the classroom has been a controversial agenda for decades. ChatGPT, a state-of-the-art (SOTA) AI released in November 2022, has attracted global interest for its exceptionally high performance in generating human-like natural language answers to…

Blended learning (BL), also known as hybrid or flipped classroom learning, is a method that involves both traditional face-to-face teaching and online media instruction. The problem experienced in South Texas school districts (STSD), despite research showing evidence of the BL model's benefits, is that some teachers are struggling to implement BL…

Children are developing alongside interactive technologies that can move, talk, and act like agents, but it is unclear if children's beliefs about the agency of these household technologies are similar to their beliefs about advanced, humanoid robots used in lab research. This study investigated 4-11-year-old children's (N = 127, M[subscript age]…
