With the approach of constant changes and quality assurance in education, we have reached an optimum that no longer justifies all further investments in such changes, as the results of these investments are (and will be) minimal and insufficient. We have reached a stage where we must shift from evolution to revolution, from constant changes in…

Here, we describe the development and validation of an automatic assessment system that examines students' hand-drawn visual representations in free-response items.

As a result, concerns over the preparation of the South African educational systems for the 4IR have been raised. Many industries still lack an advanced…

Purpose: We aim to identify the most accurate model for predicting adolescent (Grade 9) reading difficulties (RD) in reading fluency and reading comprehension using 17 kindergarten-age variables. Three models (neural networks, linear, and mixture) were compared based on their accuracy in predicting RD. We also examined whether the same or a…

With recent public access to large language models via chatbots, the field of language education is seeing unprecedented levels of interest in how AI will affect language learning and teaching. As attention is primarily focused on student misuse of the technology, the potential affordances of generative AI tools may often be overlooked. In this…

The aims of this study were to (1) to explore the state of students' and teachers' well-being and (2) examine the factors that predict their well-being during the pandemic-related school closures in the Philippines. Our sample comprised 733 students and 1168 teachers. During the height of the pandemic, 22.10% of the students and 13.44% of teachers…

In Temasek Polytechnic, Singapore, several AI chatbots acting as digital teaching assistants were trialed between July 2021 and August 2022. As these were developed for different purposes, it is important to learn if these AI chatbots help achieve the desired learning outcomes. This paper focuses on lessons learnt from three chatbots designed for…

Major developments over the past two decades in STEM education and classroom assessment provide a compelling argument for shifting the focus of assessment toward the classroom where its most powerful benefits can be realized. The increased emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion in education puts increased scrutiny on assessment practices and…

While AI has become more prevalent in our society than ever, many young learners are found holding various naive, erroneous conceptions of AI due to the influence of their technology and media environments. To address this issue, this study seeks to propose a novel pedagogical solution to improve upper-elementary school students' scientific…

Purpose: The lesson study aims to examine college English teachers' growth in technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) and the improvement of students' learning outcomes in the context of MOOC-based and AI-powered flipped teaching and assessment of EFL writing (MAFTA). Design/methodology/approach: Three college EFL teachers and their…

With so much attention to the demographic or enrollment cliff, we may have become desensitized to its implications. But as we approach 2025--the first year of contraction--new data indicate that institutions will be contending with steady contraction for most of the next 15 years. Read this eye-opening white paper from RNL to learn what the latest…

Our research investigated the integration of artificial intelligence in education (AIEd), focusing on Indonesian university students' perspectives. A quantitative survey design was based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), a framework focused on perceived usefulness, modified by adding items related to affective aspects: interest, needs,…
