This article explores the evolving role of technology in nonformal and informal adult learning settings, guided by the theory of connectivism. It examines how digital platforms, artificial intelligence (AI), and other technological advancements enhance the accessibility, personalization, and efficiency of adult learning. The various educational…

Effectively supporting students in mastering all facets of self-regulated learning is a central aim of teachers and educational researchers. Prior research could demonstrate that formative feedback is an effective way to support students during self-regulated learning. In this light, we propose the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) to…

The COVID-19 pandemic precipitated an abrupt transition to online learning, impacting students with disabilities uniquely. This study examines the experiences of 62 such students in the new educational paradigm, employing a mixed-methods approach. Quantitative data were collected through surveys and questionnaires to assess privacy and security…

Background: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has immense potential varying from diagnosing, decision-making in-patient care, and education. To successfully integrate AI into medicine and medical education, it is important to know the outlook and willingness of medical students. This study was done to learn about the medical students opinions about it…

As artificial intelligence proliferates, so do associated hopes and fears. This study explores such tensions within South African higher education following ChatGPT's launch, analyzing perceived threats alongside opportunities for responsibly harnessing benefits. Adopting a socio-technical framework recognizing technology's interdependence with…

The artificial intelligence in education (AIED) community has produced technologies that are widely used to support learning, teaching, assessment, and administration. This work has successfully enhanced test scores, course grades, skill acquisition, comprehension, engagement, and related outcomes. However, the prevailing approach to adaptive and…

Future students are confronted with a complex world that demands the ability to solve problems in unstructured, undefined, and unfamiliar situations. The aim of the present study was to investigate the development of problem-solving skills through the implementation of Problem-Based Learning (PBL). While previous research has primarily focused on…

Although the metaverse is a trending topic in several fields, it is not a new concept within the field of education. In this study, we followed the PRISMA framework and identified 37 articles since 2008 that researched the metaverse in education. We critically reviewed these articles, aiming to examine the evolution of the field's conceptual…

This study examines a practical teaching and learning cycle tailored to integrate cutting-edge technologies (artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) game development) and social entrepreneurship within a "STEM with meaning" approach. This cycle, rooted in service learning and the 5E constructivist teaching model (engage,…

The architecture of the virtual learning community via metaverse, or VLC via metaverse, to promote digital teacher's competency is related to the application of the concepts of virtual learning community integrated with virtual reality technology to promote the competency of teachers in the digital age. This is also to equip these teachers with…

Background: Static and dynamic balance skills can be related to the activities of daily living (ADL) in children with non-syndromic intellectual disabilities, and the type of balance skills affecting ADL can differ depending on the domain of ADL (self-care, mobility, and social function). Methods: The ADL capabilities of 66 children with…

Limited studies exist on faculty members or lecturers' perception and behavioural acceptance of artificial intelligence (AI) (e.g. ChatGPT) for their students' benefit. Teachers are the decision-makers for students' teaching and classroom activities. In this regard, the study examined lecturers' use of AI-powered tools and the factors that…
