Teaching is a complex profession; and therefore, micro-teaching is needed to scale down its complexity to train pre-service teachers for future real teaching. However, micro-teaching experiences without reflection are insufficient for building or developing professional teaching skills. Therefore, this book aims at building and developing…

There is a global trend that academic disciplines and curricula around Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) are critical to developing the skills necessary for a global workforce. Preparing the workforce with skills to handle eLearning integrated into STEM disciplines increases the competencies of a digital workforce. However,…

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become pivotal in our daily lives and educational institutions' teaching and interaction between instructors and learners. As a result, universities are restructuring their curriculum and classroom instruction bridging the digital gap between education and learning. However, research seldom…

As generative artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT become increasingly integrated into educational environments, understanding their impact on critical thinking is crucial. Despite growing concerns about AI's potential to diminish students' independent reasoning, there is a lack of research tools specifically designed to evaluate students'…

The purposes of the current study were to examine the effectiveness of the multimedia computer-based lessons on programming with Scratch in Technology integrated with the TGT cooperative learning technique based on the 80/80 efficiency criterion, to compare the learning achievement of Grade 7 students between those taught using multimedia…

This study examined how technology integration in teacher training programs affects cultural and linguistic competency development among pre-service instructors. Based on the Cultural Competence Theory and the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge TPACK model, this research utilized a systematic literature review approach to integrate…

As artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly being adopted and used in society, it is imperative that teachers feel supported to integrate AI and computer science (CS) into their coursework. To help support teachers to integrate CS and AI into their instruction, we designed and developed an innovative AI curriculum, Shark AI, for in-service science…

Co-teaching is a common service delivery model where a general and special education teacher are paired in the same classroom, though little is known about the experiences of secondary special education co-teachers in the adoption and use of information and communication technology (ICT) tools in inclusive, co-taught classrooms. The purpose of…

The use of AI in the training of pre-service preschool and primary school teachers is a significant, but not sufficiently researched, issue. Although the application of AI in education is widely studied, specific studies related to preschool and primary education teacher preparation are rarer. The cognitive, emotional, and motor abilities of…

This study explores generative mechanisms of curriculum design from a human-centred perspective, with a focus on the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into engineering education. As curricula evolve to meet the demands of a technologically advanced and globally connected society, it is crucial to preserve the educational values rooted in…

This Spotlight explores the potential of AI to enhance teaching and learning, while also addressing considerations for responsible implementation. From using AI to deliver instruction with human guidance and exploring its impact on standardized testing to providing targeted professional development on AI, these articles offer valuable…

The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies heralds a transformative era in education. This study investigates the integration of AI tools in developing educational assessment rubrics within the 'Curriculum Design Development and Evaluation' course at the University of A Coruña during the 2023-2024 academic year. Employing an…

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of training on the integration of artificial intelligence into education given to pre-service teachers on their concerns about artificial intelligence and their views on the integration of artificial intelligence into education. In this study, sequential explanatory design, one of the mixed…

This paper proposes a framework for integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools into statistical training for Doctor of Education (EdD) students. The rigorous demands of doctoral education, coupled with the challenges of learning complex statistical software and coding language, often lead to anxiety and frustration among students,…

This paper presents an innovative teaching approach that integrates photoelectric technology with analytical chemistry instruction through inquiry-based learning (IBL), using cerium as a selected analyte. With the advancement of science and technology, a strong foundation of basic knowledge and methodologies is crucial in analytical chemistry…
