Since GPT-4's release it has shown novel abilities in a variety of domains. This paper explores the use of LLM-generated explanations as on-demand assistance for problems within the ASSISTments platform. In particular, we are studying whether GPT-generated explanations are better than nothing on problems that have no supports and whether…

Contextual multi-armed bandits have previously been used to personalize student support messages given to learners by supplying a model with relevant context about the user, problem, and available student supports. In this work, we propose using careful feature selection with relevant domain knowledge to improve the quality of student support…

This dissertation explores Generation Z's perceptions and experiences with Learning Management Systems, emphasizing the influence of user experience design on engagement. The study uses a qualitative postphenomenological method to identify key user experience design attributes that affect student engagement. Analyzing semistructured interviews…

Artificial intelligence (AI) based education represents a significant transformation in the field of education of our age. Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has great potential to enrich the learning experience of special needs students, provide support to teachers, and reduce inequalities in education. Artificial intelligence (AI)…

We focus on the integration of STACK--a Computer-Aided Assessment (CAA) technology--in the mathematics department of a high-ranking University in the United Kingdom. We study a department-wide project where instructors were expected to implement STACK into continuous assessment tasks for (nearly) all core modules across the first two years of…

Technological mediums such as dynamic environments with drag-and-drop features have been considered promising agents in helping students explore and generate conjectures about mathematical concepts. This study investigated the dragging modalities sixth and seventh-grade students use in solving proportional problems in a dynamic geometry…

This study explored the use of immersive virtual reality enhancing university students' presence and empathy in relation to their immersive tendencies. With a first-person narrative delivered through a head-mounted display, a high-immersion virtual reality (VR) was expected to provide engaging embodied experiences, impacting the way students…

The primary objective is to investigate the potential applications of AI in education to enhance its quality and elevate students' knowledge levels. A comprehensive experiment was conducted, involving the integration of AI technology into the learning process of 279 students. A test was administered at the outset, categorizing students into four…

The study explores the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) frameworks in transforming academic programs into adaptive, industry-relevant programs. The paper explores the development, validation, and effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) frameworks in aligning academic programs with the digital enterprise while highlighting the importance…

The pervasive presence of the internet in educational environments presents a multiplicity of challenges, particularly in fostering students' responsible and ethical digital citizenship. While existing research investigates digital citizenship, few studies have examined internet skills and computer self-efficacy as mediating factors between…

Background: In primary school art education, it is crucial to foster innovative thinking, encourage hands-on creativity, and nurture an awareness of fundamental artistic aesthetics. Thus, the curriculum should emphasize art literacy development, and it should be supplemented with practical activities and promote humanistic values. Objectives: This…

Objectives: I analyze, deconstruct, and debunk prevalent misconceptions about artificial intelligence (AI) in education. Methods: This study identifies and presents ten common myths about AI in education, followed by concise explanations that counter each myth with the corresponding reality, relying on credible sources and evidence. Results: AI…

This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties (factor structure, reliability and construct validity) of the Motivation of User-generated Technical Instructional Videos (MUTIV) scale. Employing a cross-sectional research design, two rounds of self-administered surveys were conducted in mainland China (N = 271/N = 318). Phase 1 involved…

The study examines pre-service mathematics teachers' perceptions of the integration of technology into algebra education. With the growing emphasis on technology in education, it is crucial to understand how pre-education teachers see technology and engage in it when teaching mathematics. The research aims to gain a view of their beliefs,…

Educational virtual environments (EVEs) can enable effective learning experiences on various devices, including smartphones, using nonimmersive virtual reality (VR). To this purpose, researchers and educators should identify the most appropriate pedagogical techniques, not restarting from scratch but exploring which traditional e-learning and VR…
