Launched in November of 2022, the generative artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT garnered immediate societal interest and adoption as its advanced large language modeling proved capable of producing sophisticated, human-like responses to user-generated prompts. In this preliminary study, K-12 teachers in the United States were surveyed on their…

There has been a limited amount of research that has attempted to determine teaching strategies using adaptive learning systems. Most studies have attempted to measure success of the use of these technologies based on improvements in students' test scores but have lacked to provide any information regarding the pedagogy implemented while using the…

Artificial intelligence (AI) education is increasingly being recognized as essential at the K-12 level. For better understanding teachers' preparedness for AI education and effectively developing relevant teacher training programs, teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) readiness and attitudes toward AI teaching must be…

In education, the utilization of EdTech tools diverges notably between developed and developing nations, a dichotomy attributed to multiple factors like Technological Infrastructure, Digital Literacy, Digital Pedagogy, Tools, and Content. Recent research studies highlight that Generative AI's potential use and integration might exacerbate this…

Artificial intelligence in education (AIED) is an exigent topic of concern across educational settings. While artificial intelligence (AI) is not new, integrating it into K-12 schools has created a mix of positive and negative perceptions regarding how to do so effectively. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to examine teachers'…

The fast development and spread of artificial intelligence (AI) in the education field is prompting educational stakeholders to study how new AI technology will influence teaching and learning. The problem this basic qualitative study will address is the lack of teacher knowledge of artificial intelligence (AI) due to limited pedagogy, which is…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has triggered profound reforms across industries, including education. These developments necessitate the inclusion of AI as a subject in K-12 classrooms. However, the need for students to learn AI demands that educators pay increasing attention, believe in its relevance and intend to promote it among their students…

This study surveyed 445 primary, secondary, and higher education teachers to understand their usage of AI tools in the classroom. Results revealed that while teachers generally have a positive attitude toward AI in education, only 25% of them have actually incorporated AI-based tools into their teaching. Moreover, the most common used tools were…

The introduction of ChatGPT into basic education is progressing rapidly, generating impacts that, in many cases, are unknown. Its impressive capability profiles it as a tool that will revolutionize teaching and learning processes, creating gaps that need to be understood and evaluated. The research aims to explore the advantages, disadvantages,…

With the prevalence of Large Language Model-based chatbots, middle school students are increasingly likely to engage with these tools to complete their assignments, raising concerns about its potential to harm students' learning motivation and learning outcomes. However, we know little about its real impact. Through quasi-experiment research with…

The advances of machine learning (ML) in scientific discovery (SD) reveal exciting opportunities to utilize it as a cross-cutting tool for inquiry-based learning in K-12 STEM classrooms. There are, however, limited efforts on providing teachers with sufficient knowledge and skills to integrate ML into teaching. Our study addresses this gap by…

Artificial intelligence (AI) education for K-12 students is an emerging necessity, owing to the rapid advancement and deployment of AI technologies. It is essential to take teachers' perspectives into account when creating ecologically valid AI education programmes for K-12 settings. However, very few studies investigated teacher perception of AI…

Background: In the midst of digital transformation, schools are transforming their classrooms as they prepare students for a world increasingly automated by new technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI). During curricular implementation, it has not made sense to teachers to teach AI as a stand-alone subject as it is not a traditional…

Contributing to a growing body of research on broadening participation in computing for historically underrepresented racial communities (e.g., Black and Latinx), this qualitative study describes the knowledge (content and sources) six antiracist Computer Science (CS) teachers have about examples (and counterexamples) of modern techno-racism, a…

Speaking with an artificial counterpart in simulated environments has been shown beneficial for foreign language learning. Still, few studies have explored how it is experienced by younger students. We report on a study of Swedish students (N = 22) speaking English with embodied conversational agents (ECAs) in everyday-life scenarios. Data were…
