This study examines the efficacy of artificial intelligence (AI) in creating parallel test items compared to human-made ones. Two test forms were developed: one consisting of 20 existing human-made items and another with 20 new items generated with ChatGPT assistance. Expert reviews confirmed the content parallelism of the two test forms.…

Recent advancements in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have disrupted assessment practices within the higher education sector. The efficacy of existing assessment approaches is under reexamination with the introduction of generative AI's ability to generate human-like text. Simultaneously, there are calls to integrate generative AI into…

Educators throughout the world are deeply concerned about what ChatGPT means for education. I argue that Christian educators must avoid extreme reactions and fulfill three key roles to remain focused on students' holistic formation: (1) casting a moral vision of truthfulness; (2) evaluating curricula, syllabi, and formal assessments while also…

Innovative, pedagogically informed instructional design is instrumental in increasing student engagement and improving learning outcomes in online learning environments. Interactive learning resources provide students with the opportunity to engage with content in a more personalised manner. H5P (HTML 5 Package) is a collaborative platform that…

Learning to respond to a computer program that is not working as intended is often characterized as finding a singular bug causing a singular problem. This framing underemphasizes the wide range of ways that students and teachers could notice discrepancies from their intention, propose causes of those discrepancies, and implement interventions.…

The Child Language Data Exchange System (CHILDES), created by Brain MacWhinney and Catherine Snow in 1984, is one of the earliest Open Science and data sharing initiatives in child language development research, and probably in developmental psychology and the behavioral sciences more generally. It is the cornerstone of TalkBank--a repository of…

Digital accessibility has become one of the most critical components for post-secondary student success because accessibility is the first step to learning for the diverse college student population. However, emerging studies show that teacher candidates experience challenges in program completion due to inaccessible course materials or course…

Machine learning and data mining techniques have been widely used in educational settings to identify the important features that tend to influence students' learning performance and predict their future performance. However, there is little to no research done in the context of Singapore's education. Hence, this study aims to fill the gap by…

Quantum technologies refer to any technology developed based on the principles of quantum physics. Quantum communication, quantum computing, and quantum sensing are applications of such technologies, in which quantum mechanics underpins the key assumptions on their design and development. Quantum technologies promise revolutionary and disruptive…

Initial research, although limited, demonstrates promise for the use of a voice-user interface via a digital assistant (i.e., Google Assistant) for English language learners seeking language skill development. However, no research has sought to determine the adult English as a foreign language instructor response toward the application of such…

Higher education in the Republic of Serbia needs to be reformed. This paper presents a performance analysis of the changes that the authors assume are mandatory, presenting the research problem this article addresses.

In this study, it was aimed to show the effect of computer assisted learning on the academic achievement, performance levels and computer attitudes of 8th grade students in "Transformation Geometry" subject and determine students' opinions about this learning environment. The study was conducted with embedded design, one of the mixed…

This paper presents a novel methodology to determine textbook readability. The method mainly relies on students' lexical coverage to determine the readability level of textbooks, taking into consideration that readability depends primarily on vocabulary knowledge and that it is a function of lexical coverage in teaching English as a Foreign…

Although digital game-based vocabulary learning (DGBVL) has attracted considerable attention, factors attributing to the facilitative effects of DGBVL have not yet been satisfactorily understood. To this end, under the theoretical framework of flow theory, this study investigates the effects of flow experiences on Chinese…

The current study is the first of a two-part action research study to support student's communication using WhatsApp™ at a Foundation Year language program in Saudi Arabia. The study focused on unearthing the assumptions behind the support using factual knowledge gathered from 24 female students. Using a questionnaire that included ten…
