This research aims to design a helpful methodology for estimating universities' relative impact on students as a sustainability factor in higher education. To this end, the research methodology implemented a two-stage approach. The first stage involves the relative efficiency analysis of the study units using Fuzzy Data Envelopment Analysis. The…

In this position paper, the authors lay out the imperative for equitable artificial intelligence (AI), highlighting the essential role of access-oriented institutions and calling on technology companies (both large and small), foundations, and local, state, and federal regulators to consult with the newly convened Complete College America Council…

With the increasing demand brought on by the beginning of the fourth industrial revolution in the period of post-digital education and bio-digital technology, artificial intelligence (AI) has played a pivotal role in supporting human intelligence and contributing to intellectuals within science, technology, science, and mathematics (STEM) and in…

Despite its controversial nature, machine translation (MT) has been increasingly integrated into learning in the past decade. This controversy arises from two different beliefs. While some believe that MT negatively impacts students' language proficiency, others argue that it allows students to stay abreast of technological advancements. Despite…

Relying on the nation's first judicial big data research base for people's courts in Southeast University, Southeast University Law School has set up a training direction for graduate students in legal big data and artificial intelligence, and explored the "three-dimensional, small-scale, wide-ranging, and large-scale ecology." The…

Artificial intelligence (AI)-based chatbots have received considerable attention during the last few years. However, little is known concerning what affects their use for educational purposes. This research, therefore, develops a theoretical model based on extracting constructs from the expectation confirmation model (ECM) (expectation…

ChatGPT is a brand new, free AI chatbot that has the potential to produce a seismic shift in chemistry education, especially in written lab reports. An example is explored in which ChatGPT is used to write the discussion portion of a lab report. Ways to detect the use of ChatGPT are also discussed.

This study examines the relationship between student perceptions and their intention to use generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in higher education. With a sample of 405 students participating in the study, their knowledge, perceived value, and perceived cost of using the technology were measured by an Expectancy-Value Theory (EVT)…

One of the most persuasive technologies in developing universities' smart campus applications is the Internet of Things (IoT) technique. Deploying thousands of readily available devices connected to IoT systems by ignoring device vulnerabilities and threat strategies in smart campus infrastructure is exacerbating security challenges. Moreover,…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is fundamentally reshaping classroom experiences. In this activity, students in a graduate-level project management class engaged in real-time conversations with AI- powered chatbots as though they were actual people. Students were required to perform a stakeholder analysis on the key stakeholders involved in their…

The integration of educational data mining and deep neural networks, along with the adoption of the Apriori algorithm for generating association rules, focuses to resolve the problem of misdirection of students in the university, leading to their failure and dropout. This is reached through the development of an intelligent model that predicts the…

With the continuous development of technological and educational innovation, learners nowadays can obtain a variety of supports from agents such as teachers, peers, education technologies, and recently, generative artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT. In particular, there has been a surge of academic interest in human-AI collaboration and…

Despite continuous discussions on Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) ethics in academia, limited studies examine the perceptions of students or the application of ChatGPT with non-traditional students. We report an exploratory single case of a two-week orientation offered to non-traditional students entering online bachelor's degree…

Within the university sector, student recruitment and enrolment are key strategies as institutions strive to attract, retain and engage students. This strategy is underpinned by the provision of services, applications and technologies that facilitate lecturing and support staff. Universities that offer online learning have a particular incentive…

Science education researchers typically face a trade-off between more quantitatively oriented confirmatory testing of hypotheses, or more qualitatively oriented exploration of novel hypotheses. More recently, open-ended, constructed response items were used to combine both approaches and advance assessment of complex science-related skills and…
