As China joined the World Trade Organization (WTO) and its national strength continued to grow, enthusiasm for learning Chinese has been heating up globally. Chinese language education has gradually integrated into the education systems of more countries, becoming a significant focus of attention and study. However, despite the increasing demand…

This article examines theories which suggest that authentic learning requires creativity. The connection between creativity and learning has been recognized for quite some time. Several of the theories examined herein are decades old. The older theories include Piaget's and Dewey's, and less obviously the humanistic theory of self-actualization.…

Background/purpose: Threshold theory posits that a certain minimum level of intelligence, the "threshold," is essential for creativity to emerge. Beyond this level, the influence of intelligence on creativity diminishes. This study investigates the relationship between creativity and intelligence scores among exceptionally gifted,…

This book explores the concept of artificial intelligence (AI) literacy within higher education, addressing both instructors' and students' preparedness to engage with AI technologies responsibly and effectively. By synthesising existing frameworks and empirical studies, alongside presenting two original research studies, the book bridges…

Recently, there has been a plethora of studies about students' attitudes toward the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in education, particularly in higher education and language education; however, research on AI use in high school settings has gained relatively little attention, leaving a huge research gap in the literature. This…

The rapid proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) in educational measurement presents both transformative opportunities and complex ethical challenges. This paper articulates foundational principles for the responsible integration of AI in measurement and learning, drawing on established guidelines set forth by leading organizations such as…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is gaining global attention due to its potential benefits in various sectors, primarily the education sector. Egypt is gradually realising the importance of such integration; however, there is limited research on the AI readiness levels of stakeholders, particularly in Higher Education (HE). This research aims to…

The integration of formative practice questions with textbook content is a well-known method for increasing student learning, and recent advances in artificial intelligence have made automatic question generation a viable option for scaling this learning method to thousands of textbooks. To expand this method to even more students, a parallel…

Mindset theory proposes that perfectionism is associated with a fixed mindset, but little research has studied this question. First, we reviewed the published literature (k = 8). Contrary to popular advice previously communicated to the public, perfectionistic standards were positively linked to an incremental theory and a growth mindset (rather…

Background: The application of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in education has been deepening. However, at the same time, behaviours that jeopardise academic health, such as learners' over-reliance on generative AI and massive plagiarism of generated content of generative AI in essay writing, have begun to emerge, and the issue of…

Use of artificial intelligence (AI) to score responses is growing in popularity and likely to increase. Evidence of the validity of scores relies on quadratic weighted kappa (QWK) to demonstrate agreement between AI scores and human ratings. QWK is a measure of agreement that accounts for chance agreement and the ordinality of the data by giving…

Human users are now able to generate synthetic face images with artificial intelligence (AI) tools. Although indistinguishable from real photographs, these images have tended to feature fictional identities that do not exist in the real world. As a result, their use in applied contexts, including the spread of fake information, is similarly…

Personal intelligence concerns the ability to understand personality in oneself and others--including the understanding of motives, socioemotional traits, and abilities. We examined if people's scores on the ability-based "Test of Personal Intelligence (TOPI)" would be reflected in their narratives about someone whose personality they…

Interest in identifying factors influencing educational success is growing. It is often observed that a group of students share the same external variables (school environment) yet have different results, which states that individual variables have more impact on the determination of academic performance. Therefore, the present study aimed to…

Based on recent findings in cognitive neuroscience and psychology as well as computational models of working memory and reasoning, I argue that fluid intelligence (fluid reasoning) can amount to representing in the mind the key relation(s) for the task at hand. Effective representation of relations allows for enormous flexibility of thinking but…
