This study aimed to propose a Professional Development Model (PDM) for chemistry teachers to enhance their professional development in Artificial Intelligence (AI). The research group consisted of 17 chemistry teachers. The study was designed using a particular case study suitable for qualitative research methods. Document review, teacher…

Despite the critical role teachers play in AI education, research on their understanding of generative AI tools remains limited, particularly concerning their ethical assessment knowledge. This study addresses the gap by proposing the Generative AI Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (GenAI-TPACK) framework, which incorporates ethical…

The paper applies a scoping review of k = 16 empirical studies from nine countries and three continents that aim at an empirical investigation of teachers' ICT integration in lesson plans as part of their professional competence. We summarise the results into four sections: conceptualisations, study design, measurement instruments, and key…

This qualitative case study aims to investigate the impact of a specially designed professional development course on three aspects: English language instructors' (1) knowledge, (2) skills, and (3) self-efficacy in integrating AI into their teaching. Cognitive apprenticeship and socio-constructivism set the theoretical foundations of this course.…

The widespread shift to distance learning during the pandemic created a critical juncture for strengthening technology integration in adult foundational education (AFE). This paper presents results from a pilot survey on technology use and related professional learning (PL); 58 AFE practitioners from four states participated. Findings are…

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education holds immense potential to enhance teaching and learning. However, its effective adoption depends on teachers' readiness, which is influenced by factors such as demographic characteristics, AI familiarity, self-efficacy, perceived benefits, challenges, and institutional support.

This study explored how integrating e-learning tools, specifically free 'Google Workspace for Education' tools, enhances teaching proficiency and student engagement in the digital age within Rwandan secondary schools. By employing a phenomenological approach, interviews were conducted with 166 secondary teachers from four purposefully selected…

Technology is ever increasing in the world of education. Teachers and students alike have more access to technology, and through that comes the opportunity for teachers to change how they are presenting that information to students to impact on student learning. The problem addressed by the study is, if long term professional development of…

This study examined the level of lecturers' awareness and the extent of usage of open educational resources (OERs) for teaching and learning in Nigerian universities. A descriptive research design was adopted for the study. Multi-stage sampling technique was used to select two (2) universities (both federal and state-owned) that are running open…

AI-enabled educational tools have great potential for enhancing learning and teaching, yet there is a notable lack of study on AI-focused professional development for K-12 teachers. This phenomenological study employed the TPACK framework to examine teachers' incorporation of AI and engagement in professional development activities. The use of a…

Many students have been exposed to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) in most schools. While STEM in public high schools, public middle schools, STEM-specific schools, and charter elementary schools have been researched often, the literature concerning STEM in public elementary school classrooms to promote learning is scarce. The…

The rise of digital technologies and their educational applications increasingly require the development of digital skills among university faculty. This study focuses on examining the level of digital competencies of university faculty and identifying their conditioning factors. To achieve this objective, an ex post facto methodological design…

The growing rise of information and communication technologies (ICT) in all areas of society demands that university professors have an adequate level of digital literacy, so that they can contribute effectively to the training of their students and respond to the demands of the job. The objective of this research is to know and compare the use by…

Technology has the potential to enhance learning; however, generic technocentric strategies in schools have exacerbated barriers to technology integration in the classroom. Teachers are key to successful technology integration in schools. Factors such as subject culture and pedagogy will affect teachers' willingness and ability to adopt technology…

This study examines the effects of instructors' academic disciplines and prior experience with the learning management system (LMS), Canvas, on current use.
