Randomized A/B tests within online learning platforms represent an exciting direction in learning sciences. With minimal assumptions, they allow causal effect estimation without confounding bias and exact statistical inference even in small samples. However, often experimental samples and/or treatment effects are small, A/B tests are underpowered,…

Traditional information literacy skills (e.g., effectively finding and evaluating information) need to be updated due to the rapidly changing information ecosystem and the growing dominance of online platforms that use algorithms to control and shape information. This article proposes additions to the current ACRL "Framework for Information…

Datafied digital systems have permeated higher education over the past decade. Registration, grading, financial operations, and often teaching all take place through digital platforms that extract and collate data about students as well as faculty and staff. At the level of these data system processes, academics may not have the knowledge or…

Background/Context: School transitions pose a variety of social-emotional and academic challenges to students, especially those who are more vulnerable due to home, health, or academic challenges (Eccles et al., 1997; Felmlee, 2018). With this awareness, a growing number of school districts have developed and implemented early warning indicator…

This case provides an opportunity for classroom discussion of ethical issues addressed by computing technologists and the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) Code of Ethics as the authors describe a recent lawsuit brought against Sutter Health. Security issues, data breaches and compliance with industry privacy rules are common concerns for…

This paper gives four examples of the use of short speculative fiction for teaching different aspects of information privacy. Information privacy is multi-faceted; as an area of study it intersects with a number of fields. A non-exhaustive list could include: law, information systems, decision science, marketing, management, philosophy,…

Although mobile technologies are commonly used to support language learning, there is a lack of research to comprehensively determine the acceptance, readiness, affordances, and challenges in this area. To address this gap, this systematic literature review selected 49 articles indexed in the Scopus database between 2013 and 2022. This study found…

The word "dignity" refers to a certain pre-eminence of the human being, granting it an irreplaceable value. It is universal and common to all people. To safeguard dignity, health professionals must have a correct understanding of its meaning and how it manifests through concrete actions in daily care. From this perspective, we sought to…

College planning has transformed into a complex digital dance, where Instagram stories matter as much as campus tours and AI chatbots answer midnight questions about application deadlines. Colleges and universities need to be aligned with the expectations of today's college-bound high school students in order to engage them where they are in their…

The rapid development of Generative Artificial Intelligence in education presents new opportunities but also raises concerns about inequality and the integrity of academic practices. This study explores its impact, trends, and risks in education through an extensive review of existing academic literature. The methodology includes a systematic…

Background/purpose: Azerbaijani higher education is undergoing a rapid digital transformation in response to global advances in artificial intelligence (AI). Within this context, English language teaching (ELT) faces the challenge of integrating AI tools to enhance learning outcomes. However, little is known about how prepared educators and…

Leveraging big data for student data analytics is increasingly integrated throughout university operations from admissions to advising to teaching and learning. Though the possibilities are exciting to consider, they are not without risks to student autonomy, privacy, equity, and educational value. There has been little research showing how…

Navigating the development of attraction ad identity can be particularly stressful for sexual/gender minority (SGM) students--particularly as multiple states have passed legislation targeting SGM rights and culture. School psychologists can mitigate such stress through effective counseling when consent is granted for service provision, but parents…

The emergence of generative AI technologies has provoked considerable debate among educators regarding their role in education. This study is an investigation of the benefits, disadvantages, and potential strategies for integrating generative AI in educational settings by analyzing societal impacts based on a literature review. We have surveyed…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots are increasingly becoming integral components of the digital learning ecosystem. As AI technologies continue to evolve, it is crucial to understand the factors influencing their adoption and use among students in higher education. This study is undertaken against this backdrop to explore the behavioral…
