The evolving landscape of higher education demands integrating advanced technologies to foster engaging and inclusive learning environments. This paper examines the practical integration of Stellarium, a virtual planetarium software, and ChatGPT, an AI conversational agent, in an asynchronous online undergraduate astronomy course. Stellarium…

Large Language Models (LLMs) hold promise as dynamic instructional aids. Yet, it remains unclear whether LLMs can replicate the adaptivity of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS)--where student knowledge and pedagogical strategies are explicitly modeled. We propose a prompt variation framework to assess LLM-generated instructional moves' adaptivity…

Amalgamating generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI), Bloom's taxonomy and critical thinking present a promising avenue to revolutionize assessment pedagogy and foster higher-order cognitive skills needed for learning autonomy in the domain of self-directed learning. Gen AI, a subset of artificial intelligence (AI), has emerged as a…

ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence (AI) language model, holds significant promise for improving the quality and efficiency of teaching and learning. However, its potential challenges and disruptions in education systems require further investigation for a deeper understanding and mitigation. Given that ChatGPT is already being utilized and…

Educator preparation, personalized learning (PL) implementation, and applications of Generative AI converge as three interrelated systems that, when carefully designed, can help achieve the long-sought goal of providing inclusive education for all learners. However, realizing this potential comes with challenges resulting from theoretical…

This systematic review explores the use of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) in fostering creativity, innovation, and personalized learning experiences among university students in Ghana. The review also examines the challenges associated with the implementation of ITS, along with the ethical considerations involved. Employing an interpretive…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is profoundly reshaping higher education by introducing innovative tools and systems that enhance learning outcomes, streamline administrative processes, and address global educational challenges. This white paper examines AI's transformative impact on higher education, drawing on a comprehensive analysis of empirical…

This document provides guiding principles and practical examples for using AI in teaching and learning. Underpinned by a human-centred approach, the PATH principles serve as key guidance to ensure the ethical and effective integration of AI systems into teaching and learning. The PATH principles are: Promote teaching and learning; Advance…

An intelligent tutoring system (ITS, henceforth) is currently defined as a computer system that delivers personalized instruction to students by using computational techniques to evaluate the learner in a variety of ways, including (but not limited to) their prior knowledge, competency/skill levels, motivation, and affective states. ITSs are…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration in andragogical education offers significant enhancements to the learning experience for adult learners. By utilizing AI-powered platforms, instructors can provide personalized learning paths that adapt to the unique needs, interests, and goals of each individual. These systems can analyze performance data…

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the research on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in primary education to explore its potential to enhance teaching and learning processes. Through a systematic review of the relevant literature, this study identifies key areas in which AI can significantly impact primary education and…

Developing models, using mathematics, and constructing explanations are three practices essential for science inquiry learning according to education reform efforts, such as the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS Lead States, 2013). However, students struggle with these intersecting practices, especially when developing and interpreting…

The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to investigate the relationship between teachers' conceptions of mathematics and their use of intelligent tutoring systems for mathematics instruction. Intelligent tutoring systems are adaptive computer programs which administer mathematics instruction to students based on their cognitive state. A…

The integration of artificial intelligence in language learning is transforming education by making language acquisition more personalized, efficient, and accessible. AI-powered tools, such as intelligent tutoring systems and adaptive learning platforms, enable learners to receive real-time feedback, customized lessons, and immersive experiences…
