Researchers have increasingly utilized artificial intelligence to automatically analyze classroom dialogue, aiming to provide timely feedback to teachers due to its educational significance. However, traditional machine learning and deep learning models face challenges, such as limited performance and lack of generalizability, across various…

The tension between broadening university capacity and maintaining quality is a global phenomenon. While numerous studies have analysed the enactments of various policies that aimed to address declining university quality, few have examined the underlying beliefs that define what is conceptualised as a 'quality problem' within the policy…

The essence of human intelligence lies in its ability to learn continuously, accumulating past knowledge to aid in future learning and problem-solving endeavors. In contrast, the current machine learning paradigm often operates in isolation, lacking the capacity for continual learning and adaptation. This deficiency becomes apparent in the face of…

This two-part dissertation centers on a re-examination of the role of book indexes in information retrieval research on full-text digital book collections in digital libraries. Early research focused on information retrieval and book indexes (in addition to other parts of books) in the 2000s when the Google Books corpus was first released to the…

The purpose of this research is to explore three English synonyms, namely critical, serious, and crucial, with a particular focus on meanings, degrees of formality, collocations, and semantic preferences. Two dictionaries, namely the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary and the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary online, as well as the Corpus…

Advances in computational language models increasingly enable adaptive support for self-regulated learning (SRL) in digital learning environments (DLEs; eg, via automated feedback). However, the accuracy of those models is a common concern for educational stakeholders (eg, policymakers, researchers, teachers and learners themselves). We compared…

Critical thinking and anxiety influenced the translation competence of translators. This study sought to examine the interactions between critical thinking, attitude, and anxiety influenced the translation competence of translators. This study adopted an empirical approach to collect data from 145 student translators from many colleges in Saudi…

As part of the global education industry, the International Baccalaureate (IB) plays an important role in education systems around the world. Although laudatory descriptions of the IB abound, knowledge about it remains vague and superficial, relying predominantly on information produced by the IB organization or its affiliates. To gain fresh…

This article unpacks the computational thinking for digital technologies (CTDT) technological area of the New Zealand primary curriculum that became mandatory in 2020. It explores computational thinking (CT), its place in the New Zealand primary curriculum, and elements kaiako can utilise to help implement the teaching of CT. The article considers…

In the changing realm of academic research, Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a significant force, altering the way knowledge is pursued and understood. "Enhancing Doctoral Dissertations Ethically with AI: A Comprehensive Guide" serves as an indispensable guide for doctoral students and educators on the frontline of this shift,…

Background: Recent evidence suggests that speech substantially changes in ageing. As a complex neurophysiological process, it can accurately reflect changes in the motor and cognitive systems underpinning human speech. Since healthy ageing is not always easily discriminable from early stages of dementia based on cognitive and behavioural…

Machine translation post-editing (MTPE) is a process where humans and machines meet. While previous researchers have adopted psychological and cognitive approaches to explore the factors affecting MTPE performance, little research has been carried out to simultaneously investigate the post-editors' cognitive traits and the post-editing task…

Verb-marking errors are a characteristic feature of the speech of typically-developing (TD) children and are particularly prevalent in the speech of children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). However, both the pattern of verb-marking error in TD children and the pattern of verb-marking deficit in DLD vary across languages and interact…

German-speaking children between ages 2 and 3 mostly use the preposition ohne ('without') in an adult-like way, to express the absence of something. In this article we present surprising results from a corpus study suggesting that in this age group, absence can also be expressed using the sequence mit ohne 'with without'. We argue that this…

Background: This study investigates the use of large language models to create adaptive, contextually relevant survey questions, aiming to enhance data quality in educational research without limiting scalability. Purpose: We provide step-by-step methods to develop a dynamic survey instrument, driven by artificial intelligence (AI), and introduce…
