A career is crucial for anyone to fulfill their desires through hard work. During their studies, students cannot find the best career suggestions unless they receive meaningful guidance tailored to their skills. Therefore, we developed an AI-assisted model for early prediction to provide better career suggestions. Although the task is difficult,…

This study explores how university English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners developed reading comprehension through the integration of the Question-Answer Relationship (QAR) strategy and ChatGPT. Thirty-five first-year students from a university in northern China participated in three rounds of semi-structured interviews in five weeks.…

As modern deep networks become more complex, and get closer to human-like capabilities in certain domains, the question arises as to how the representations and decision rules they learn compare to the ones in humans. In this work, we study representations of sentences in one such artificial system for natural language processing. We first present…

Automatic item generation can rapidly generate large volumes of exam items, but this creates challenges for assembly of exams which aim to include syntactically diverse items. First, we demonstrate a diminishing marginal syntactic return for automatic item generation using a saturation detection approach. This analysis can help users of automatic…

Recently, discovering learner behaviour has taken more attention in the field of e-learning. It aims to gain useful insights into the learning process of students despite the absence of direct interaction with teachers. In fact, the only available source of information in such environments is the log file that represents all possible interactions…

Text classification has allowed researchers to analyze natural language data at a previously impossible scale. However, a text classifier is only as valid as the the annotations on which it was trained. Further, the cost of training a classifier depends on annotators' ability to quickly and accurately apply the coding scheme to each text. Thus,…

Since its first adoption as a computational model for language learning, evidence has accumulated that Rescorla-Wagner error-correction learning (Rescorla & Wagner, 1972) captures several aspects of language processing. Whereas previous studies have provided general support for the Rescorla-Wagner rule by using it to explain the behavior of…

Investigating links between temporal features of the writing process (e.g., bursts and pauses during writing) and the linguistic features found in written products would help us better understand intersections between the writing process and product. However, research on this topic is rare. This article illustrates a method to examine associations…

The 26th annual Teaching Pre-Conference organized by the Advertising Division of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication focused on the topic of innovating data storytelling and visualization with AI and ChatGPT. Five prominent speakers from leading media companies and universities shared insights with advertising…

Adaptive comparative judgment (ACJ) has been widely used to evaluate classroom artifacts with reliability and validity. In the ACJ experience we examined, students were provided a pair of images related to backpack design. For each pair, students were required to select which image could help them ideate better. Then, they were prompted to provide…

This paper provides a thorough examination of the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly ChatGPT and other AI language models, in the realm of education. Drawing insights from existing literature and a novel study on educator perspectives, the paper delves into the potential advantages, ethical dilemmas, and factors shaping educators'…

This dissertation investigates how collective process-oriented documentation tools, combined with Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques, can enhance knowledge construction in hands-on, open-ended learning environments, such as makerspaces. Through a three-year design-based research, the study developed and tested a collective documentation…

Background or Context: Although many scholars have evaluated how Hispanic-serving institutions (HSIs) "serve" and can better "serve" Latinx students and their communities, scant research has integrated artificial intelligence (AI) technology within this evaluation of diversity and "servingness." With institutions of…

The rapid proliferation of the Internet has sparked a resurgence of attention toward the function of novel artificial intelligence technologies in the higher education. The effective adoption of recent advancements in human-computer interaction is crucial for inclusive education and innovation, resulting in sustainable socioeconomic growth and…

Although ChatGPT provides excellent features as a writing assistant tool, few empirical studies have been conducted on its integration into writing education investigating students' usage pattern and impact on the writing skills of students. This exploratory research aims to fill this research gap by analyzing prompts initiated by students and…
