The current educational system relies heavily on manual grading, posing challenges such as delayed feedback and grading inaccuracies. Automated grading tools (AGTs) offer solutions but come with limitations. To address this, "GRAD-AI" is introduced, an advanced AGT that combines automation with teacher involvement for precise grading,…

ChatGPT, an AI software, has rapidly gained popularity for a wide variety of applications, including educational uses. This research explores the use of ChatGPT to supplement Geographical Information Systems (GIS) coursework creation, to help educators with little experience in GIS. Visualizing sea level rise (SLR) and quantifying the extent of…

This paper critically analyzes the potential impact of ChatGPT, a creative artificial intelligence tool, on learning and teaching, focusing on its impact on using writing assignments as a means of assessing knowledge. The paper examines the challenges this tool presents to learners and teachers in various aspects, including writing as a means of…

Automatic program repair (APR) tools are valuable for students to assist them with debugging tasks since program repair captures the code modification to make a buggy program pass the given test-suite. However, the process of manually generating catalogs of code modifications is intricate and time-consuming. This article proposes contextual error…

Academic plagiarism is a pressing concern in educational institutions. With the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots, like ChatGPT, potential risks related to cheating and plagiarism have increased. This study aims to investigate the authenticity capabilities of ChatGPT models 3.5 and 4 in generating novel, coherent, and accurate…

ChatGPT and generative AI (GenAI) are disrupting students' traditional writing process. Although this development may seem novel, new technologies and writing practices have always affected the classroom, as research in composition shows. Turning to this existing scholarship, I show how composition studies provide a useful framework for thinking…

Purpose: Current knowledge and research on students' utilization and interaction with generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools in their academic work is limited. This study aims to investigate students' engagement with these tools. Design/methodology/approach: This research used survey-based research to investigate generative AI literacy…

This article presents a curated collection of nine teaching innovations presented at the Association for Business Communication 89th conference in the "oil capital of the world," Tulsa, Oklahoma, as well as online, in October 2024. Many of the MFA presenters demonstrated how AI can be used, integrated, and analyzed in business…

This study explores Arab university faculty's views on fully AI-generated assignments and research papers submitted by students, what reasons they give for their stance and how they react in this case. Surveys with a sample of 45 Arab instructors revealed that 98% do not accept AI-generated assignments and research papers from students at all.…

The rise of AI generated texts offers promise but creates new challenges for social work teaching. A recent survey found that 89% of higher education students used AI on their homework. AI generated text may be difficult to distinguish from a student's own work, yet are being submitted as the student's own work. This poses new challenges to…

The development and introduction of AI language models have transformed the way humans and institutions interact with technology, enabling natural and intuitive communication between humans and machines. This paper conducts a competence-based analysis of ChatGPT's task responses to provide insights into its language proficiency, critical analysis…

Despite the growing use of large language models (LLMs) in educational contexts, there is no evidence on how these can be operationalized by students to generate custom datasets suitable for teaching and learning. Moreover, in the context of network science, little is known about whether LLMs can replicate real-life network properties. This study…

Despite extensive research on the concerns with the use of ChatGPT that evolve around cheating, academic integrity, and plagiarism, very little is known on the assessment practices in school history, obscuring our understanding on how history teachers can assess students amid ChatGPT driven challenges. This conceptual paper discusses the…

Artificial intelligence assignments lead this article's 11 teaching innovations selected from the "My Favorite Assignments" presented at the 2023 Association for Business Communication's (ABC's) 88th Annual International Conference held in the Mile-High City: Denver, Colorado, USA. Pedagogy presented here also includes ideas to enhance…
