With the recent release of Chat-GPT by OpenAI, the automated text generation capabilities of GPT-3 are seen as transformative and potentially systemically disruptive for higher education. While the impact on teaching and learning practices is still unknown, it is apparent that alongside risks these tools offer the potential to augment human…

Artificial intelligence (AI) literacy education for senior secondary students can prepare them for an AI-pervasive future. Although senior secondary students have been targeted, whether they can learn abstract AI concepts, feel empowered to harness AI and understand AI ethical issues is under-researched. We report a 34-h AI literacy programme with…

Researchers and practitioners are paying increasing attention to blockchain's potential for resolving trust, privacy, and transparency-related issues in smart education. Research on educational blockchain is also becoming an active field of research. Based on 206 studies published from 2017 to 2020, we identify contributors, collaborators,…

Asynchronous discussions are a popular feature in online higher education as they enable instructor-student and student-student interactions at the users' own time and pace. AI-driven discussion platforms are designed to relieve instructors of automatable tasks, e.g., low-stakes grading and post moderation. Our study investigated the validity of…

This behaviour has led to an uproar amongst parents, teachers and learners about the school principals' insensitiveness which is attributed to lack of emotional…

There is a broad impetus across policy and institutional domains to expand public engagement and involvement with emerging technology research and innovation. Yet innovative theory, methods, and practices to critically explore algorithmic system controversies and democratic possibilities are still in nascent form. In this paper, we bring together…

This paper examines ways in which the ethics of data-driven technologies might be (re)politicised, particularly where educational institutions are involved. The recent proliferation of principles, guidelines, and frameworks for ethical 'AI' (artificial intelligence) have emerged from a plethora of organisations in recent years, and seem poised to…

The current study comparatively examines the emotional intelligence and perfectionism of gifted and non-identified students. A total of 857 students participated in the study.
