Like many student writing centers, the American University of Sharjah Writing Center is seeing a rise in student reliance upon generative AI (GenAI) tools, which are artificial intelligence systems capable of generating human-like text. Peer tutors frequently seek guidance on how to approach student papers involving GenAI tools such as ChatGPT,…

This study investigates the impact and role of an instructional chatbot, ARUChatbot, in a distance education setting. Using a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, the research involved 130 students from Ardahan University's Basic Information Technologies course. Participants were selected through purposive sampling. Quantitative data were…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize education as it develops, offering dynamic, individualized, and effective learning experiences that might change teaching practices. However, there is still inconsistency and limitations in the integration and use of AI in Tanzanian universities. Therefore, the study delt to…

An outgrowth of work submitted for Howard University's Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Writing Faculty Task Force, this essay examines what is at stake for students of color with the use of AI as well as the potential opportunities it presents. The research is tailored to explore how the mission of Historically Black Colleges and…

The purpose of this research is to provide a first-person account of the dynamics and needed adaptations in an academic's transition from being a doctoral student to a doctoral supervisor. By employing autoethnography, this study explores the inner experiences, challenges, and insights encountered in the process of developing a supervisory…

Peer grading has diverse applications in many fields, including the peer grading of open assignments in online courses. The major challenge in peer grading is improving the seriousness (reviewing carefully) of reviewers. Previous studies have proposed several incentive reward mechanisms intended to reward or punish reviewers. Although these…

Given the recent call to strengthen collaboration between researchers and relevant practitioners, we consider participatory design as a way to advance Cognitive Science. Building on examples from the Learning Sciences and Human-Computer Interaction, we (a) explore "what," "why," "who," "when," and…

With the increasingly ubiquitous presence of artificial intelligence (AI) technology in digital society, educators appeal to foster the public's general knowledge about AI from young children. Studies have been conducted to create learning activities for children's development of AI literacy, but seldom did they investigate the resources children…

The student profile has become an important component of education systems. Many systems objectives, as e-recommendation, e-orientation, e-recruitment and dropout prediction are essentially based on the profile for decision support. Machine learning plays an important role in this context and several studies have been carried out either for…

Schools (and some librarians) relegated librarians to the "business of books" and disregarded them of proven technological expertise. Fortunately, school librarians have either continued to insert themselves into digital technologies or emerged from the stacks to reclaim their role as digital resource experts in their schools. So, how do…

Educational chatbots (EC) have shown their promise in providing instructional support. However, limited studies directly explored the impact of EC on learners' emotional responses. This study investigated the induced emotions from interacting with micro-learning EC and how they impact learning motivation. In this context, the EC interactions…

In this article, we explore the intersection of creativity, education, and technology, with a focus on the impact of Generative AI (GenAI). We delve into the transformative potential of GenAI in redefining educational and creative processes and challenging our existing notions of learning and creativity. Through a conversation with renowned…

Historians sometimes view teaching and community engagement as peripheral to research. Self-reflection on the design of assignments, pedagogy techniques, and students' work aids teachers as they refine their teaching, and it can also inform research questions and methods. Teaching, research, and community engagement do not have to be separate…

This review compares generative artificial intelligence with five representative educational technologies in history and concludes that AI technology can become a knowledge producer and thus can be utilized as educative AI to enhance teaching and learning outcomes. From a historical perspective, each technological breakthrough has affected…

This guidance centers around the users of artificial intelligence (AI) in various roles throughout West Virginia PK-12 schools. It is designed to assist individuals such as superintendents, district staff, educators, and support staff in the appropriate and effective use of AI, particularly generative AI technologies, within West Virginia schools.…
