Futures of education are increasingly defined through predictive technologies and methods. We conceptualize 'algorithmic futuring' as the use of data-driven digital methods and predictive infrastructures to anticipate educational futures and animate actions in the present towards their materialization. Specifically, we focus on algorithmic…

One challenging issue in improving the teaching and learning methods in MOOCs is to construct potential knowledge graphs from massive learning resources. Therefore, this study proposes knowledge graphs driving online learning behaviour prediction and multi-learning task recommendation in MOOCs. Based on the knowledge graphs supported by…

The proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI)-generated content, particularly from models like ChatGPT, presents potential challenges to academic integrity and raises concerns about plagiarism. This study investigates the capabilities of various AI content detection tools in discerning human and AI-authored content. Fifteen paragraphs each…

Digitally mediated touch is an emerging and significant area for technology and therefore for design and design education. However, the design of digital touch is a challenge, especially for novice designers, compounded by low awareness and understanding of the sociality of touch and the complexity of communicating felt sensations. This paper…

The present research is an examination of Augmented Reality (AR) applications in Science Education using the Multi-complementary Approach (McA). This incorporates multiple analyses: i) Pre-complementary: meta-analysis and meta-thematic analysis, ii) Post-complementary: an experimental design with a pre- and post-test control group and iii)…

This study, which systematically examines educational robotics and robots (ERR), has two purposes. (1) Classifying the research on the ERR to identify research trends and gaps, (2) Summarizing the experimental findings related to ERR and to interpret them according to the claims in the literature. A mixed method combining systematic mapping and…

Education equity has become a critical sustainable development goal worldwide, and it has aroused significant concern among educators. While virtual teaching communities have emerged as an approach to minimizing educational inequity through resource sharing and information exchange, the achievement of deep collaboration among individuals remains…

The aim of this study is to identify the ethical challenges, solutions and needs of educational technology (EdTech) companies. Qualitative data was collected in interviews with seven experts from four companies, and the data was analysed using inductive content analysis. The four main areas of challenges were ambiguous regulations, inequalities in…

Cheating is a growing academic and ethical concern in higher education. The technological "arms race" that involves cheating-detection system developers versus technology-savvy students is attracting increased attention to cheating issues; it is also generating iterations of technological innovations as corporations, higher educational…

At-home chemistry experiments are increasingly important to enable high-quality online and hybrid instruction. These class modalities provide significant challenges and also dramatically expand the accessibility of education to those who work or care for family during traditional school hours or have significant commutes to campus. This work…

This study aims to explore the challenges and opportunities of using digital technology in English teaching in higher education. Transforming the teaching and learning process from face-to-face to online learning by utilising digital technology devices and internet connectivity becomes challenging for lecturers and students. However, there are…

Pedagogical agents are virtual characters that instructional designers include in learning environments to help students learn. Research in the area has flourished for thirty years, yet there are still critical questions about the efficacy of pedagogical agents for influencing learning and affect. As such, we conducted an umbrella review to…

Adaptive technology has a transformed education, particularly for students with visual impairments. These students confront particular problems that frequently impede their ability to learn and fully participate in the classroom. However, by utilizing adaptive technology, these children will have access to a variety of tools and resources that…

Science communication is a key component of the academic process. Science centres provide researchers with an opportunity to convey their findings directly to the public, who in turn can be sure that they are receiving information from a trusted source. Therefore, this paper focuses on a new researcher-led public engagement project situated within…

The autoethnographic study investigates the transformative impact of generative AI on educational research, instructional design, and teaching practices over a 5-month period (May-October 2024). By integrating AI tools into every phase of the research process, the study examines AI's role as both a research partner and a subject of inquiry. Field…
