Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 4.7 aims to ensure learners acquire the knowledge and skills for promoting sustainable development by 2030. Yet, Open Educational Resources (OERs) that connect the public with SDGs are currently limitedly assigned and insufficient to promote SDG and sustainability education to support the achievement of SDG 4.7…

Student academic performance prediction is a significant area of study in the realm of education that has drawn the interest and investigation of numerous scholars. The current approaches for student academic performance prediction mainly rely on the educational information provided by educational system, ignoring the information on students'…

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,…

The higher the level of development of higher education, the larger its contribution to socioeconomic development. In order to predict the trend of higher education development in a country more accurately, a new methodology is employed in this study. A weakening buffer operator-based GM (1, 1) model is constructed using Kazakhstan's gross…

Predicting student performance using educational data is a significant area of machine learning research. However, class imbalance in datasets and the challenge of developing interpretable models can hinder accuracy. This study compares different variations of the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) combined with classification…

The automated classification of examination questions based on Bloom's Taxonomy (BT) aims to assist the question setters so that high-quality question papers are produced. Most studies to automate this process adopted the machine learning approach, and only a few utilised the deep learning approach. The pre-trained contextual and non-contextual…

This research analyzed the efficacy of ChatGPT as a tool for the correction and provision of feedback on primary school students' short essays written in both the English and Greek languages. The accuracy and qualitative aspects of ChatGPT-generated corrections and feedback were compared to that of educators. For the essays written in English, it…

This study aims to determine the factors influencing the efficient and successful use of LMS among university-level students. A multiperspective approach was performed using TAM3 and ISS framework to achieve the aforementioned aim. The survey was administered to 371 university students. Structural equation modeling (SEM) has been conducted to test…

In the face of surging online education around the globe, it seems quite necessary and helpful for learners and teachers to have the plethora of online resources well sorted out beforehand. To some extent, the efficiency and accuracy of resource search and retrieval may determine the quality and influence of online education. In this research,…

This study investigates the development and evaluation of a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)-based statistics tutor designed to assist students with quantitative analysis methods. The RAG approach was employed to address the well-documented issue of hallucination in Large Language Models (LLMs). A computer tutor was developed that utilizes…

English has long been regarded as the universal language. Countries that were earlier reluctant to learn English have also changed their stand due to its global reach. The nonnative English speaker's proficiency largely depends on the College English Teaching (CET) and its evaluation methods. Traditional teaching evaluation models failed to…

Quality control and assurance plays a fundamental role within higher education contexts. One means by which quality control can be performed is by mapping the course learning outcomes (CLOs) to the program learning outcomes (PLO). This paper describes a system by which this mapping process can be automated and validated. The proposed AI-based…

The developmental, characteristics and educational competencies of students who need special education are developing slowly in compared to their agemates. This is because their expressive language is different. In order to overcome these challenges, assistive technologies can be used under the supervision of the teachers. In this paper, a person…

International large-scale assessments provide cross-national data on students' cognitive and non-cognitive characteristics. A critical methodological issue that often arises in comparing data from cross-national studies is ensuring measurement invariance, indicating that the construct under investigation is the same across the compared groups.…

Teacher learning in asynchronous online professional development (PD) is often measured by self-reported instruments, despite uncertainties regarding teachers' accuracy in their self-assessment of learning. This study explored whether teachers' self-reported "gains" in content knowledge for teaching aligned with those measured by direct…
