Background: Integrating large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, into speech-language pathology (SLP) presents promising opportunities and notable challenges. While these tools can support diagnostics, streamline documentation and assist in therapy planning, they also raise concerns related to misinformation, cultural insensitivity,…

The majority of research in computational psycholinguistics on sentence processing has focused on word-by-word incremental processing within sentences, rather than holistic sentence-level representations. This study introduces two novel computational approaches for quantifying sentence-level processing: sentence surprisal and sentence relevance.…

This study investigates the capabilities of Large Language Models to simulate counselling clients in educational role-plays in comparison to human role-players. Initially, we recorded role-playing sessions, where novice counsellors interacted with human peers acting as clients, followed by role-plays between humans and clients simulated by…

This case study reports on a co-creation initiative that explored the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the context of higher education assessments. The AI Co-Creators project aimed to promote dialogue between students and staff on the impact of AI with the objective of using AI tools more effectively. The case study…

Immediately after its public launch in November 2022, ChatGPT quickly gained widespread attention across various research fields, including education. The excitement surrounding ChatGPT is not an isolated event as education experienced other innovations that heralded the novelty as a potential game-changer in learner support and teaching. Open,…

As generative AI (GenAI) continues to permeate academia, distinguishing between student-authored essays and those by Large Language Models (LLMs) becomes crucial for maintaining academic integrity. This study conducted a survey on the ethical awareness of using generative AI tools among a group of STEM students (n=156). Also, we empirically…

In response to (1) studies finding that essay feedback generated by ChatGPT might be useful for student writers and (2) studies observing ChatGPT's tendency to adhere to narrow genre definitions when producing writing, our study seeks to examine whether ChatGPT can provide useful feedback in a first-year writing learning environment that targets a…

Recent developments in the field of artificial intelligence allow for improved performance in the automated assessment of extended response items in mathematics, potentially allowing for the scoring of these items cheaply and at scale. This study details the grand prize-winning approach to developing large language models (LLMs) to automatically…

The development of large language models offers new possibilities for enhancing adaptive scaffolding of student learning in game-based learning environments. In this work, we present a novel framework for automatic plan generation that utilizes text-based representations of students' actions within a game-based learning environment, Crystal…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are rapidly gaining attention across the open-source and commercial fields, bolstered by their constantly growing capabilities. While such models have a vast array of applications, their integration into higher education--as supportive tools for lecturers--has been largely unexplored. Exploring this area entails…

Programming demands a variety of cognitive skills, and mastering these competencies is essential for success in computer science education. The importance of formative feedback is well acknowledged in programming education, and thus, a diverse range of techniques has been proposed to generate and enhance formative feedback for programming…
