The present study examined the influence of the technological environment and the technological mediation on argumentative interactions among university students. Eighty-two students, paired in dyads, participated in discussions on an academic task in different settings (face-to-face, chat, video call), and with or without technological mediation…

Conversational user interfaces (CUI), including voice interfaces, which allow users to converse with computers via voice, are gaining wide popularity. VoiceBots allow users to receive a response in real-time, regardless of the communication device. VoiceBots have been explored in fields such as customer service to automate repetitive queries and…

Background: Vocabulary learning is an essential dimension of foreign language learning. The learners have a huge responsibility in this task. Among other factors, time constraints and an overall lack of maintained motivation on the part of students makes it especially challenging. Consequently, improving vocabulary learning requires strategies to…

This systematic literature review explores learning analytics (LA) in serious games within virtual reality (VR) environments, focusing on studies from the International Conference on Learning Analytics and Knowledge (LAK) and the Journal of Learning Analytics (JLA). Conducted in two stages, the review identifies key domains where serious games in…

Rapid technological advancements of recent decades have fueled, among other aspects, a global boom in the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) tools across a variety of areas. Higher education, like other domains, has embraced these innovations, with ChatGPT emerging as one of the latest additions. Faculty perception, ability, and…

Integrating AI Chatbots into teaching and learning activities is a growing trend, and understanding the readiness of preservice mathematics teachers to use AI Chatbots is crucial for successful implementation in educational settings. This study examines the factors influencing the adoption of AI Chatbots by preservice mathematics teachers in…

Building upon previous research on the therapeutic object, specifically the "objet re-petit-ive abc," which draws from Lacan, Winnicott, and Guattari, I explore the generation, contribution, and erosion of knowledge in the so-called smart city. I will investigate how digital pedagogical objects, functioning as transitional objects, can…

Supporting the integration of technology into schools can be one of the daunting tasks and challenging role for school principals. It requires them to have basic technology skills, standards, and competencies from which to work, lead and finally integrate technology appropriately in school. To investigate this new role and daunting tasks, the…

Education is inherently entangled with the future. This argumentative review examines this entanglement and proposes a framework differentiating between four educational orientations towards the future. The orientation 'Futures of education' examines how education changes in the future: From rhetorical to visionary, these futures are concerned…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots, with their ability to engage in conversations that resemble human interactions, have been increasingly applied to language teaching. Most recent review studies overlook student learning outcomes and the methods to achieve these outcomes in chatbot-supported language learning. Activity Theory (AT) offers a…

Classroom engagement is a critical factor for evaluating students' learning outcomes and teachers' instructional strategies. Traditional methods for detecting classroom engagement, such as coding and questionnaires, are often limited by delays, subjectivity, and external interference. While some neural network models have been proposed to detect…

Online learning has enabled universal access to higher education, eliminating obstacles such as employment, geographical location, and other disruptions. However, the transition from traditional classroom settings to online classes without any prior knowledge or training can be a significant challenge. This study investigated students' experiences…

Technostress--or the constant connection, disruption, distraction, and need to learn caused by new technology--can make instructors feel overwhelmed, tired, or disengaged, impacting their ability to teach. As institutions continue to invest resources for growing their technology portfolios, the authors investigated how instructor technostress…

This study explores how the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools into language education can influence language teachers' identity from an ecological perspective. To do so, 16 teachers were selected based on purposeful sampling and completed a narrative frame. To corroborate data, seven of them (based on the richness of their…

We study the interactions over 22 years between one mathematics teacher and his resources for teaching, especially digital ones, with a dual focus on the teacher's documentational and identity trajectories and professional development. We combined a theoretical framework on teachers' work with resources--documentational approach to didactics…
