Generative AI has recently gained the ability to generate computer code. This development is bound to affect how computer programming is taught in higher education. We used past programming assignments and solutions for textbook exercises in our introductory programming class to analyze how accurately one of the leading models, ChatGPT, generates…

Aim/Purpose: In this study, we propose an AI technology-based learning model using ChatGPT and investigate its effect on students' higher-order thinking (HOT) ability in an operating systems (OS) course. Background: A critical requirement for IT and engineering students is supporting them in understanding advanced OS concepts and fostering their…

Higher institutions are increasingly embracing the use of computer technologies in advancing education. Despite evidence pointing to the positive impact of computer technologies on teaching and learning, systematic research study on the role of teachers' competencies in computer technologies integration is still not saturated in literature.…

Visualizations have become more complex in recent years so that users need to learn how to use these systems. Onboarding systems can help users to learn how to interact with a visualization efficiently. Simple tutorials are often not sufficient. There are still open questions on how to design such onboarding systems. So far, a few usability…

Aim/Purpose: The need for this paper arises from the lack of comprehensive studies comparing the impact of cloud-based versus local database systems on student learning outcomes. Specifically, there is a need to understand how these different approaches affect usability and cognitive load in educational settings, which are critical factors for…

This article reports the analysis of data from five different studies to identify predictors of preservice, early childhood teachers' views of (a) the nature of coding, (b) integration of coding into preschool classrooms, and (c) relation of coding to fields other than computer science (CS). Significant changes in views of coding were predicted by…

In spite of the emergence of studies seeking to integrate chatbot into education, there is a wide literature gap in the Nigerian contexts. While most studies focus on the design and development of chatbots, there exists a very scarce literature on the effect of ChatGPT chatbot on students' achievement. To address this gap, this study checked the…

Aim/Purpose: This study aims to investigate the perceptions of programming instructors among the Information Technology faculty members at AL al-Bayt University regarding the effectiveness of ChatGPT in supporting the programming instructional process. This study also aims to explore their experiences concerning the potential benefits and adverse…

This multiple case study sought to examine preservice computer science teachers' beliefs, motivational orientations, and teaching practices, as currently, they remain to be adequately researched. Eight participants were selected via maximum variation sampling for this study of trainee teachers during their first practicums in Turkey. Trainee…

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely adopted in higher education. However, the current research on AI in higher education is limited, lacking both breadth and depth. In the present study, we addressed this research gap by exploring students' perception of learning in AI-related courses facilitated by an open experiential AI platform.…

The importance of gameplay extends beyond mere entertainment, playing a crucial role in shaping behavioral intentions (BIs) in various contexts. This research aims to discover how digital gameplay influences students' BIs, mainly in the context of technology adoption in education. The main objective is to investigate the impact of digital gameplay…

This teaching tip explores the integration of AI tools into database education. The author describes how instructors can use AI tools to prepare teaching materials and how students can use AI to facilitate database development. The teaching tips provided encompass both course-level objectives and assignment-specific strategies. The inclusion of AI…

CIPP, as a decision-oriented new model of curriculum evaluation, is suitable for the evaluation needs of information-based physical education courses. The evaluation of teaching in information-based physical education courses based on the CIPP model is divided into four categories: context evaluation, input evaluation, process evaluation, and…

Cybersecurity educational efforts are urgently needed to introduce young people to the profession and give students and teachers cybersecurity knowledge to protect themselves from increasing cybercrime. In this study, 56 elementary preservice teachers participated in a 3-hour intervention within a technology integration course that introduced them…

This article presents a systematic review of the literature with the aim of providing an updated framework for the scientific production developed in the field of digital competence and inclusive education in Higher Education, as indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) and SCOPUS databases. Twenty-one scientific articles published between 2016-2023…
