This study aims to examine university students' intentions to use artificial intelligence (AI) applications in their educational processes within the context of job characteristics (JC), technology characteristics (TC), task-technology fit (TTF), and self-efficacy (SE). The research was conducted with 965 students enrolled in Information…

The belief that AI technology is on the cusp of causing a generalized social crisis became a popular one in 2023. While there was no doubt an element of hype and exaggeration to some of these accounts, they do reflect the fact that there are troubling ramifications to this technology stack. This conjunction of shared concerns about social,…

Advancements in computation and machine learning have revolutionized science, enabling researchers to address once insurmountable challenges. Bioinformatics, a field that heavily relies on computer-driven analysis of biological data, has greatly benefited from these developments. However, traditional bioinformatics instruction frequently lacks the…

Aim/Purpose: In this study, we propose an AI technology-based learning model using ChatGPT and investigate its effect on students' higher-order thinking (HOT) ability in an operating systems (OS) course. Background: A critical requirement for IT and engineering students is supporting them in understanding advanced OS concepts and fostering their…

Aim/Purpose: The need for this paper arises from the lack of comprehensive studies comparing the impact of cloud-based versus local database systems on student learning outcomes. Specifically, there is a need to understand how these different approaches affect usability and cognitive load in educational settings, which are critical factors for…

This paper unites the history of Computer Science (CS) Education in Ireland by plotting Ireland's roadmap leading to the implementation of formal Computer Science Education in schools. It first outlines the educational system in Ireland. The history roadmap starts in the 1970s with the first notions of introducing computing in post-primary school,…

As cloud computing gains prominence, universities have increasingly incorporated it into their curricula, necessitating a balance between theoretical knowledge and practical skills. However, students' learning of cloud computing was not clear. The primary objectives of this study are to assess variations in students' self-efficacy and…

Implementing ICT education in elementary schools in the industrial era 4.0 is urgent. Several studies have explored ICT education in elementary schools, but few studies with systematic literature reviews remain. This article presents a literature review for 2019-2023 regarding ICT education in elementary schools. The Systematic Review Literature…

In order to equip students with technology and 21st-century abilities like problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration, a new model of education that involves altered curriculum, infrastructure, professional development for teachers, textbooks, and examinations have emerged. The use of information technology can help spread knowledge more…

The United States faces persistent threats conducting malicious cyber campaigns that threaten critical infrastructure, companies and their intellectual property, and the privacy of its citizens. Additionally, there are millions of unfilled cybersecurity positions, and the cybersecurity skills gap continues to widen. Most companies believe that…

Background/purpose: With advancements in technology, particularly in Artificial Intelligence (AI), personalized and adaptive systems are increasingly being integrated into conventional educational environments. These technologies create opportunities to place learners at the center of the educational experience through personalized learning.…

In recent years, subject content such as programming and digital literacy has become an integral part of technology education. However, research shows that many programming teachers lack sufficient formal education to teach programming and show disparate educational and professional experiences. This study investigates how three teachers'…

Learning computer programming is typically difficult for newcomers. Demotivation and learned helplessness have received much attention. Besides the subject's intricacy, low in-class participation has been associated with poor student achievement. This paper presents a follow-up, stage 2 study on the novel instructional technique, Student-Driven…

CIPP, as a decision-oriented new model of curriculum evaluation, is suitable for the evaluation needs of information-based physical education courses. The evaluation of teaching in information-based physical education courses based on the CIPP model is divided into four categories: context evaluation, input evaluation, process evaluation, and…

Computational thinking (CT) skills are becoming increasingly relevant for future professionals across all domains, beyond computer science (CS). As such, an increasing number of bachelor's and master's programs outside of the CS discipline integrate CT courses within their study program. At the same time, tools such as notebooks and interactive…
