This study explores the use of analytical artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance lesson planning in teacher education, particularly in vocational business education. Providing detailed, individualized feedback for lesson planning is challenging for university instructors. An analytical AI platform that offers expert-level feedback on lesson plans…

In the context of the digital economy, programming proficiency is an essential competency that promotes upward socio-economic mobility and expands career opportunities. However, students from socially disadvantaged backgrounds often face significant barriers to acquiring these skills, such as limited access to technology and educational resources.…

The rapid development of large language models (LLMs) has sparked growing interest in their potential to transform education. This study explores how LLMs influence collaborative learning, focusing on student creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving, and collective intelligence. Specifically, it investigates whether artificial intelligence…

Purpose: Predicting learner outcomes in blended learning (BL) is a new problem with many challenges, as learner data must be collected in both face-to-face and online environments. The purpose of this article is to identify the best method for building a model to predict student performance in BL and to determine the appropriate time for early…

Prior research has demonstrated that students' performance on physics test items can be accurately predicted using machine learning algorithms based on their gaze behavior. These gaze data are typically recorded during item completion and capture students' visual attention to both the verbal item stem and accompanying visual representations, such…

The Powers Practice is a tool developed to gain insight into the competencies of effective higher education leaders and as a tool to increase self-reflection practices. The Internal Family Systems model serves as the foundational theory and a "VUCA lens" describes the high stress conditions of higher education. The tool proved to be…

From an unsettled, ambivalent middle between discourses of generative AI integration and refusal, we offer a critical-ethical stance for AI-engaged writing assignments. We apply a critical thinking framework to these assignments, assert critical AI literacy as a kind of critical thinking, and discuss how critical thinking and critical AI literacy…

This book focuses on global research findings dealing with various forms of visible discrimination in the classroom. The synthesis of research evidence suggests that intelligence discrimination, race and ethnicity discrimination, social class discrimination, labeling students according to their academic achievement, and the self-fulfilling…

Generative Artificial Intelligence's (GenAI) integration in education has seen widespread changes in how students engage with, and how educators go about their practice and administrative duties, using this new technology. Therefore, the ways GenAI might successfully integrate into programmes of study, in this case, both primary and post-primary…

Since its launch in November 2022, chatbot ChatGPT has gained significant popularity worldwide. It performs the task of a search engine, analyzes the information, and generates the required output. ChatGPT is already recognized as a useful tool for educational purposes, but it also comes with some limitations and potential risks. In this case…

Main objective of the study was to investigate how artificial intelligence (AI) and STEM pedagogy influence students' cognitive performance, academic success, and attitudes. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group was used in the study. The study was conducted among first- to fourth-year students enrolled in the…

As editors for this special journal, Graves and Woods have compiled a discussion of the accuracy of the labels for Black children. It is exciting that they have brought together a team of scholars to tackle the very specific question posed by Hilliard (1991) and Guthrie (1976/2002) about the validity of IQ testing in regards to accurately and…

This article introduces the concept of adaptive intelligence--the intelligence one needs to adapt to current problems and anticipate future problems of real-world environments--and discusses its implications for education. Adaptive intelligence involves not only promoting one's own ability to survive and thrive, but also that of others in one's…

This quasi-experimental study examined the impact of reading aloud using theme-based material on the change from baseline to study endpoint in Crystallized Intelligence (Gc) of first grade students (Kaufman & Kaufman, 2004). A total of 39 students (19 male, 20 female) from two districts in a Midwestern state were recruited to participate. To…

'The human being', Kant contends, 'is the only creature that must be educated'. Thus, for Kant, the concept of education plays a central role in the answer to one of the fundamental questions of philosophy: What is the human being? Education is the means by which the rational powers definitive of our humanity are actualised and cultivated. It is…
