High-volume, high-quality and diverse datasets are crucial for advancing research in the education field. However, such datasets often contain sensitive information that poses significant privacy challenges. Traditional anonymisation techniques fail to meet the privacy standards required by regulations like GDPR, prompting the need for more robust…

This study applies a posthuman lens to the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) Workforce Framework, examining two key Work Roles in cybersecurity education. Employing a novel posthuman coding scheme, the associated Tasks, Knowledge, and Skills (TKS) statements were analyzed. Findings reveal significant posthuman elements within…

Media coverage suggests that ChatGPT can pass examinations based on multiple choice questions (MCQs), including those used to qualify doctors, lawyers, scientists etc. This poses a potential risk to the integrity of those examinations. We reviewed current research evidence regarding the performance of ChatGPT on MCQ-based examinations in higher…

Additive manufacturing (AM) has been applied to automotive, aerospace, medical sectors, etc., but there are still challenges such as parts' porosity, cracks, surface roughness, intrinsic anisotropy, and residual stress because of the high level of thermal gradient. It is significant to conduct the modeling and simulation of the AM process and…

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools were met with a mix of enthusiasm, skepticism, and fear. AI adoption soared as people discovered compelling use cases--developers wrote code, realtors generated narratives for their websites, students wrote essays, and much more. Calls for caution attempted to temper AI enthusiasm. Experts highlighted…

Machine learning (ML) is increasingly utilized in the development and assurance of safety-critical systems (SCSs) nowadays, much like other complex problems. Safety is the topmost priority in SCS, hence, developers who are working in this area must possess extensive knowledge of both ML and SCS. This article presents a methodical investigation…

In cyber security education, hands-on training is a common type of exercise to help raise awareness and competence, and improve students' cybersecurity skills. To be able to measure the impact of the design of the particular courses, the designers need methods that can reveal hidden patterns in trainee behavior. However, the support of the…

This report profiles the trends and key technologies and practices shaping the future of cybersecurity and privacy, and envisions a number of scenarios for that future. It is based on the perspectives and expertise of a global panel of leaders from across the higher education landscape. These are, in many ways, tumultuous times. Global political…

Since the end of 2022, global discussions on Artificial Intelligence (AI) have surged, influencing diverse societal groups, such as teachers, students and policymakers. This case study focuses on Swedish primary school students aged 11-12. The aim is to examine their cognitive and affective perceptions of AI and their current usage. Data,…

In recent times, there has been a growing interest in enhancing recommendation systems for e-learning platforms to deliver a personalised learning experience that meets each learner's distinct requirements and preferences. Nevertheless, it is crucial to recognise the ethical considerations surrounding this technology, as it heavily relies on…
