Machine and prompt-based Artificial Intelligence (AI) learning has made significant evolution profusely. In education, it has revitalized researchers and educators to scout out subsequent advantages for optimizing learning results. Chiefly, Generative AI has exhibited substantial potential as a tool for language augmentation. This study aims to…

Large language models (LLMs) hold great promise for enhancing teaching and learning in higher education, yet educators and administrators still lack practical examples to guide their adoption. This article presents insights and use cases from the integration of LLMs into a first-year undergraduate computer science cohort. By employing LLMs as…

This paper presents the findings of a pilot study on the use of generative AI (GAI) in tutorial sessions within a large-scale distance education institution in Indonesia. The primary aim of the experiment was to assess the impact of GAI-based tutoring on student engagement and academic achievement. A secondary objective was to explore how GAI…

Profound understanding of implicature is a vital precondition for successful communication, which allows recipients to appreciate the tone, relevance, and acceptability of the original idea in both intralingual and interlingual setting. This assumption accentuates the necessity to address the concept of implicature in sustainable interdisciplinary…

While there is much in teacher education which examines the perceptions of preservice teacher to the recent introduction of ChatGPT. This study examines preservice teachers' appraisals of ChatGPT-produced text. Using a quasi-experimental within-­subject design with 30 participants, Chi-Square tests examined appraisals under three conditions.…

During data collection, field interviewers often append notes or comments to a case in open text fields to request updates to case-level data. Processing these comments can improve data quality, but many are non-actionable, and processing remains a costly manual task. This article presents a case study using a novel application of machine learning…

Publication of research outputs is a method of researchers to capture their knowledge generated. Analysing the publication topics and trends in a research field can provide insight into the main research trends. A bibliometric analysis, based on the topics from published literature, provides insight into the focus areas and trends of a research…

Artificial intelligence (AI)-based voice assistants have become an essential part of our daily lives. Yet, little is known concerning what motivates students to use them in educational activities. Therefore, this research develops a theoretical model by extending the technology acceptance model (TAM) with subjective norm, enjoyment, facilitating…

DEVS (Discrete Event System Specification) is a formalism that was introduced in the mid-1970s by Bernard Zeigler, for modeling and analysis of discrete event systems. DEVS is essentially a formal mathematical language for specifying complex systems through models that can be simulated and has been executed in object-oriented software, DEVSJava…

Autograding short textual answers has become much more feasible due to the rise of NLP and the increased availability of question-answer pairs brought about by a shift to online education. Autograding performance is still inferior to human grading. The statistical and black-box nature of state-of-the-art machine learning models makes them…

Background/purpose: ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot designed with generative pre-trained transformer architecture, have intrigued millions of people from diverse backgrounds since its first release, and generated excitement with its groundbreaking performance in numerous use cases they have been tested. Its ability to generate coherent and…

Progress made in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in recent years has resulted in these tools becoming more accessible for individuals who lack professional training. Of particular note are large language models, such as OpenAI's GPT-3.5. Discussions of utilizing AI for language education usually focus on the…

The recent surge in the popularity of Large Language Models (LLM) for language assessment underscores the growing significance of cost-effective language evaluation in our increasingly digitalized society. This paper posits that the application of computational psychometrics can enable the incorporation of technology into language assessment,…

Natural Language Processing (NLP) has emerged as a transformative tool for EFL speaking instruction. However, prior research lacks robust empirical investigations into how distinct NLP tools independently enhance adaptability, accuracy, and fluency--particularly through controlled, large-scale interventions. Most studies focus on short-term…

This new Policy Note by HEPI and Kortext explores students' attitudes to AI. Based on a poll of 1,250 students through UCAS, we build a picture of the way students use and view generative AI technologies like ChatGPT and Google Bard. We find that the use of generative AI has become normalised in higher education, but that universities have so far…
