Although studied for decades by the research community, artificial intelligence (AI) in education has recently sparked much public debate with the wide-spread popularity of systems such as ChatGPT and DALL-E. Existing literature offers a wealth of research on design, deploying and evaluating AI-driven systems in education. However, the challenges related to the growing influence of AI in the society, calls for revisiting research foundations of AI in education in order to inform decision-making in policy and guide future research. This special issue of Computers & Education: Artificial Intelligence brings 11 papers that explore the theme of empowering learners for the age of AI...

Generative AI, currently most visible in education through large language models (LLMs), is increasingly embedded in students’ everyday learning practices, supporting tasks such as writing, coding, reasoning, and analysis. Yet its educational value remains uncertain because systems designed to improve immediate task performance may also weaken the cognitive and metacognitive processes that support durable learning. This paper addresses this learning–performance paradox by asking how AI systems can be designed to support learning rather than merely produce better outputs. To address this, in this paper, we make three contributions. First, we synthesise current LLM-based study support with...

There are emerging concerns about the Fairness, Accountability, Transparency, and Ethics (FATE) of educational interventions supported by the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms. One of the emerging methods for increasing trust in AI systems is to use eXplainable AI (XAI), which promotes the use of methods that produce transparent explanations and reasons for decisions AI systems make. Considering the existing literature on XAI, this paper argues that XAI in education has commonalities with the broader use of AI but also has distinctive needs. Accordingly, we first present a framework, referred to as XAI-ED, that considers six key aspects in relation to explainability for...

Incorporating Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI), especially Large Language Models (LLMs), into educational settings presents valuable opportunities to boost the efficiency of educators and enrich the learning experiences of students. A significant portion of the current use of LLMs by educators has involved using conversational user interfaces (CUIs), such as chat windows, for functions like generating educational materials or offering feedback to learners. The ability to engage in real-time conversations with LLMs, which can enhance educators' domain knowledge across various subjects, has been of high value. However, it also presents challenges to LLMs' widespread, ethical, and...

The proliferation of educational technologies has generated unprecedented volumes of diverse, multimodal learner data, offering rich insights into learning processes and outcomes. However, leveraging this complex, multimodal data requires advanced analytical methods. While Multimodal Learning Analytics (MMLA) offers promise for exploring this data, the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance MMLA remains largely unexplored. This paper bridges these two evolving domains by conducting the first systematic literature review at the intersection of AI and MMLA, analyzing 43 peer-reviewed papers from 11 reputable databases published between 2019 and 2024. The findings indicate a...

University courses with hundreds of students have become common, particularly during early years of university studies. The sheer scale of these courses limits traditional instruction, shifting it towards a one-to-many mode of delivery. This shift reduces student–instructor interaction and tailored instructor feedback which are crucial for student success. Automated feedback systems allow scaling feedback, but they often reduce instructor contributions to student learning. This paper investigates how emerging technologies can support, rather than replace, instructors in tailoring their teaching and feedback to identify and correct student knowledge gaps at scale. To address this challenge,...
