Purpose: The objective of the present study is to investigate nasal and oral vowel production in French-speaking children with cochlear implants (CIs) and children with typical hearing (TH). Vowel nasality relies primarily on acoustic cues that may be less effectively transmitted by the implant. The study investigates how children with CIs manage…

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…

Background: The use of social media among students has become debatable concern due to both positive and negative effects on academic performance. Yet, understanding of the diverse patterns of social media use and their influence on actual and perceived academic performance remains limited. Objectives: This study distinguishes between academic and…

First-year students in a distance learning institution face academic writing challenges arising from inadequate writing skills developed in high school, the need to adapt to new writing standards, and limited language proficiency. These challenges could potentially lead to higher dropout' rates, increased failures, and delayed qualification…

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,…

University students increasingly watch animated math videos that use dynamic visualizations as part of their learning process. Despite students' positive appreciation, little is known about how these visualizations contribute to learning outcomes. This paper examines the relationship between learning outcomes and students' experiences with dynamic…

Research has shown ways in which digital multimodal composing (DMC), defined as the use of digital tools to make meaning with multiple modes (e.g. languages, visuals, sounds, gestures), including video production, can empower adolescent newcomers from refugee backgrounds in school settings. However, few studies have examined teachers' challenges…

While an increasing number of studies postulate that vocational education and training (VET) activities have a positive impact on the innovative capacity of training companies, empirical evidence on the topic remains contradictory. This study exploits establishment data from a representative survey of German companies to estimate the relationship…

This study investigates how journalism students perceive and use large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, their understanding of the technology, and their ethical considerations. Findings indicate that while students see LLMs as inevitable tools in their future careers, they often misunderstand how these tools generate content, in part…

Over the last two decades, online safety education has emerged as a new field of research focusing on concerns about a myriad of cyber risks. These risks range from online sexual exploitation through to the reproduction of social inequalities. The main assumption underlying this field is that online risks can be mitigated via educational…

At the forefront of industries profoundly influenced by artificial intelligence (AI), public relations (PRs) are undergoing a transformative revolution. The increasing applications of AI in PRs are driving a demand for proficient practitioners. Recognizing this, PR educational institutions must adapt by delivering tailored AI education. Despite…

There is an increasing international focus on multi-user virtual reality (VR) training for all emergency medical technicians within the framework of their respective disaster medical preparedness initiatives. While multiuser VR is often deployed in a variety of digital educational settings, it has not been meaningfully explored in emergency…

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into mathematical problem-solving has shown significant potential to enhance student learning and performance. However, while AI tools offer numerous benefits, they are prone to occasional conceptual and arithmetic errors that can mislead users and obscure understanding. This research examines such…

Multitasking abilities are vital for conducting flight missions. Traditional theories of multitasking suggest that cognitive resources represent a determining factor of said performance. The current study takes a different approach by investigating how the stability-flexibility-dilemma of cognitive control influences multitasking performance in a…

This study systematically examines the evolution of personalized learning in education, focusing on the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education. It aims to identify how AI addresses the barriers of traditional teacher-led and student-driven personalization methods, offering scalable and adaptive solutions to…
