The emergence of generative AI (GenAI) has illustrated that higher education needs to adapt to the technology. Its speed of evolution requires that we adequately prepare students for an ever-changing landscape. Toward achieving that aim, we draw on the concept of interpretive flexibility, where the interpretations, uses, and outcomes of a new…

Technological tools continue to permeate modern life, to the extent that they can supplant previously fundamental skills. Maps and route-finding are no exception. This complex function, driven by huge volumes of data, makes modern transportation easier, more resilient, and at the same time riskier and more dependent on a sometimes-opaque…

Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into learning activities is an essential opportunity to develop students' varied thinking skills. On the other hand, design-based learning (DBL) can more effectively foster creative design processes with AI technologies to overcome real-world challenges. In this context, AI-supported DBL activities have a…

Generative AI has become a quotidian discussion topic in many writing departments, and the conversations often focus on the negative aspects or the disruptions it has caused.
