The capabilities of large language models (LLMs) in language comprehension, conversational interaction, and content generation have led to their widespread adoption across various educational stages and contexts. Given the fundamental role of education, concerns are rising about whether LLMs can serve as competent teachers. To address the…

American education has focused on reading and literacy skills for decades, but the ongoing reading wars have had little effect on student performance. Authors Rick Ginsberg and Yong Zhao suggest that the growth of artificial intelligence makes this hyperfocus on reading especially misguided because it's becoming increasingly easy to access…

It is of critical importance to be aware of the historical discrimination embedded in the data and to consider a fairness measure to reduce bias throughout the predictive modeling pipeline. Given various notions of fairness defined in the literature, investigating the correlation and interaction among metrics is vital for addressing unfairness.…

As artificial intelligence (AI), and especially generative AI, are increasingly impacting daily life, it is becoming essential for learners to acquire AI literacy -- the capability to interact with AI at the interface of technology and the target language. Without AI literacy, they may struggle to navigate AI-driven systems and access benefits of…

As generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is seen as a catalyst for a new learning and examination culture in higher education, it urges universities to reinvent themselves and to adapt to these changes effectively.
