The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) in education necessitates a shared understanding of its intended purpose and societal implications. This paper underscores the significance of "societal perspectives" in AI and education, often overshadowed by "technological aspects." At the same time, policy guidelines for…

There is a strong demand for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education in Africa, which is crucial in driving the industrial revolution. Efforts to promote STEM education have led to innovations in the teaching-learning process where emerging technologies are injected into instructional processes. Artificial intelligence…

Since the rise of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in late 2022, many scholars and thought leaders have wondered about its impact on higher education. This study used a survey methodology (three multiple choice questions and one open-ended question) to explore the perspectives of a nationally representative sample of 1,327 U.S.…

With the push to integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) from kindergarten to twelfth-grade levels comes a need for equipped teachers. However, there needs to be more initiative in professional learning opportunities, which demands the required effort to ensure teachers learn the AI content they will be teaching. To design an effective professional…

Technology has become commonplace in K-12 classrooms with students actively using digital technology to support learning. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is empirical support that implementing the ISTE Standards for Students can result in learning gains. A scoping review methodology was used to map extant literature to…

With the development and the popularization of sports dance, sports dance teaching has become a required elective course in universities. Sports dance can not only improve students' comprehensive quality, but also affect college students' healthy psychology. The use of VR (Virtual Reality) technology in dance education will definitely develop and…

This dissertation comprises work developing and leveraging technology as a means to aid student learning as well as to provide access to course-specific information. As technology continues to advance, tools are being developed and adopted by instructors to help fill gaps in previous systems and further extend their usefulness in the classroom.…

The utilization of technology in the realm of teacher education has witnessed a burgeoning popularity, affording educators a broader spectrum of choices in formulating pioneering pedagogical strategies. Nevertheless, the pragmatic implications arising from the integration of technology have persisted in giving rise to contentious deliberations…

This article explores the potential uses, benefits, and challenges of artificial intelligence (AI) tools for teacher educators and their teacher candidates. It begins with a brief introduction to the topic, followed by a discussion of existing literature concerning the impact of AI on K-12 education; the importance of preparing AI-literate…

Effective video resources are assumed to promote learner engagement, but the extent to which this occurs is unclear. This study examines learners' engagement with instructor-generated video. It contributes an analytical synthesis of qualitative and quantitative data that provides the basis for investigating the extent to which, and how, learners…

Public educational systems and institutions have increased their adoption of proprietary educational platforms offered by large private corporations. Platforms now critically mediate content creation and storage, interaction and communication, record-keeping and institutional memory. This platformization of education has led to significant risks…

Given the potential applications of generative AI (GenAI) in education and its rising interest in research, this systematic review mapped the thematic landscape of 407 publications indexed in the Web of Science, ScienceDirect and Scopus. Using EPPI Reviewer, publication type, educational level, disciplines, research areas and applications of GenAI…

This study seeks to better understand how and why teachers use technology in their work. Teachers were surveyed to explore to what extent they integrate technology and why they integrate it to the extent that they do. Faculty at three upper-level public schools in the Northeast were surveyed. Three teachers also volunteered for interviews, and one…

Despite vast improvements in technology infrastructure and classroom technology implementation across Malaysia, there still remain teachers who fail to seamlessly integrate technology in their lessons. Potential explanations for this behaviour span from low self-efficacy and computer anxiety to personal attitudes and beliefs. Technology has been…

The digitalisation of education has been emphasised over the last two decades, affecting and developing both the theories and practices of teaching and learning. Considering these developments, the need for addressing teachers' and students' digital competence has gained ground. In the last few years, the concept of digital agency has been noted…
