Contributing to a growing body of research on broadening participation in computing for historically underrepresented racial communities (e.g., Black and Latinx), this qualitative study describes the knowledge (content and sources) six antiracist Computer Science (CS) teachers have about examples (and counterexamples) of modern techno-racism, a…

Although information technology (ICT) education is being strengthened based on the national context, there are reports suggesting a decline in young people's communication skills. This phenomenon can be attributed to the rapid development of informatisation, which includes the diversification and spread of information tools, as well as the…

College students are experiencing high rates of mental health issues since the pandemic impacting their success inside and outside the classroom. This is a cause of great concern for institutions of higher education leaders urgently seeking solutions to support them. In the U.S. (United States), it is estimated that 30% of college students seek…

Recent developments in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have spurred a new sense of urgency around the transformative potential of AI in the workforce, education, and economy. Many forms of AI have long been in use in the education industry, but with the introduction of new generative AI technology (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Bard, and Bing),…

This study investigated art therapy-based self-help online tasks (ATB-SHOT) as a means to support university students during the COVID-19 lockdown by (a) measuring effectiveness on mood repair (Positive and Negative Affect Schedule and Self-Assessment Manikin scales, pre- and postintervention) and (b) correlating outcomes with participants'…

Using video-elicitation focus group interviews, this study aims to reveal pre-service science teachers' perspectives and reasoning on artificial intelligence as a socioscientific issues-based scenario. Hence, it illustrates the ways the video data were used in the focus group elicitation interviews to understand their interpretations of how their…

This study explores the trends of chatbots in education studies by conducting a literature review to analyze relevant papers published in the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) journals by searching the Web of Science (WoS) database. From the analysis results, it was found that the United States, Taiwan and Hong Kong are the top three…

This paper systematically explores how Large Language Models (LLMs) generate explanations of code examples of the type used in intro-to-programming courses. As we show, the nature of code explanations generated by LLMs varies considerably based on the wording of the prompt, the target code examples being explained, the programming language, the…

A descriptive bibliometric analysis of works on artificial intelligence (AI) in science education is provided in this article to help readers understand the state of the field's research at the time. This study's main objective is to give bibliometric data on publications regarding AI in science education printed in periodicals listed in the…

Due to the difficulties of speech signal processing, there is still a considerable gap between the ability of machines to correctly process and that of human beings. In order to overcome the defects of isolated learning and noise sensitivity of SOM, this paper proposes a new time self-organization model (TSOM) from the perspective of deep…

This article sheds new light on Karl Marx's theoretical legacy to promote educational philosophy and theory in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) education. Accordingly, this article selects Marxian thought as an exemplar case to elaborate critical pedagogy and aesthetics and culminate with an overview of the Marxian…

Successful leadership in the educational setting requires a unique and multifaceted skillset. It is a person-centric job with layered nuances which present challenges unique to the educational setting. The principal's responsibility to ensure positive outcomes and successful student achievement is beholden to creating and sustaining a safe…

Having a job immediately after graduation is the dream of every IT graduate. However, not everyone can achieve this outcome. The study's primary goal is to develop predictive models to forecast IT graduates' chances of finding a job based on factors such as academic performance, socioeconomic status, academic habits, and demographic data.…

Online executive education courses are a specialized mode of learning used by organizational leaders to develop knowledge in discrete subjects. Universities that offer these courses may lack the technology skills to develop such courses with supportive artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Instructors of such courses serve as adjuncts who are…

Self-directed learning and self-assessment require student responsibility over learning needs, goals, processes, and outcomes. However, this student-led learning can be challenging to achieve in a classroom limited by a one-to-many teacher-led instruction. We, thus, have designed and prototyped a generative artificial intelligence chatbot…
