This study investigated the impact of using ChatGPT, a state-of-the-art generative AI-based model, on the critical, creative, and reflective thinking skills of university students in Ghana. The study utilized a mixed-methods research approach, incorporating quantitative and qualitative data collection instruments, and an experimental procedure with a pretest-posttest control group. The study ultimately enlisted a sample of 125 students randomly allocated to either the experiment group (60 students) or the control group (65 students). The research was conducted in the context of a Research Methodology course, which had adopted the flipped classroom approach. The students in the experiment...

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly integrating into design education, yet its effects on student learning processes remain empirically underexplored. This study reports a sequential mixed-methods investigation across a built-environment faculty at a research-intensive university, drawing on 24 faculty interviews, a survey of 32 instructors with regression modelling, and five clustered discussions involving 31 participants. Faculty accounts converge on a pattern in which AI amplifies existing differences in student readiness rather than producing uniform improvements. Consistent with cognitive offloading theory, students with stronger foundations use AI to extend reasoning...

The present research was to bridge a research gap in comprehensively understanding students’ perceptions and experiences in utilizing ChatGPT for their writing process in English as a foreign language (EFL) context. The participants were 45 EFL learners in Macau. The study aimed to explore the potential impact of ChatGPT on writing, as well as their perceptions and experiences of ChatGPT in generating feedback for writing. A mixed-methods approach was employed, with quantitative data collected from a questionnaire and qualitative insights drawn from interviews conducted after a semester-long writing course. The findings supported the significant positive effects of AI assistance on writing...

El aprendizaje de la flexión verbal del español constituye una de las dificultades más importantes a la hora de adquirir dicha lengua, sin incluir los italianófonos, cuya lengua materna se considera afín al español. Esta nota recoge la descripción de los errores de uso de la morfología verbal en un corpus de producción escrita de 112 ensayos de 16 estudiantes universitarios de nivel intermedio. El número total de errores es ya bastante relevante. El 57% de los errores afectan a las formas y desinencias. Para su explicación se han distinguido varias categorías: los errores de formas y desinencias, los de sobrerregularización del paradigma, los de transferencia negativa (hipergeneralización),...

Highlights:

• The analysis of gameplay data from the Blood Transfusion Serious Game (BTSG) revealed crucial insights into the engagement, performance, and competency levels of participating nurses.
• The study highlighted the efficiency of the adaptive assessment algorithm in determining competency indicators through gameplay activities.
• Notable discrepancies existed between the game-embedded result and the adaptive assessment result, suggesting potential biases in the game result, which tended to overestimate the demonstrated competence.

The application of learning sciences with technology has been shown to boost learner interactions, yet the potential of advanced tool, particularly those that leverage Natural Language Processing (NLP), still very much untapped in learning contexts. This paper speaks to this age-old problem of generating quality Multiple-Choice questions (MCQs) – a prevalent but time-consuming mode of assessment – via the suggested comprehensive comparison study of template-based AI solutions. The study contrasts general-purpose Large Language Models (LLMs) with specialized MCQ-focused AI programs. The scientific approach employed was quite stringent, where each of the software applications was benchmarked...

Este trabalho analisa unidades léxico-fraseológicas, a partir de ocorrências de vocábulos formados por derivação com o sufixo -AZO. Por meio de uma análise contrastiva em corpus jornalístico espanhol/português, em artigos de opinião que tratam sobre a política argentino-brasileira, foram abordados aspectos morfossintáticos e semântico-pragmáticos na formação desses vocábulos e em unidades fraseológicas. Para além do valor semântico de aumentativo, foram identificados e descritos diferentes valores apreciativos, de golpe e de protesto ou manifestação popular, alcançando processos de lexicalização e de metaforização. Princípios e ferramentas características da Linguística de Corpus foram...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and gamified learning have attracted interest from language educators and researchers in the field of teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) for their potential to enhance vocabulary acquisition outcomes. However, the relative effectiveness of AI-generated storytelling and gamified learning in EFL vocabulary acquisition has been underexplored. This study examines the influence of AI-generated storytelling and gamified learning on the vocabulary retention and engagement of intermediate-level EFL learners. Ninety participants were allocated among three groups: a control group that employed conventional vocabulary methods (e.g., rote memorization using...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications for education are being developed at an increasing pace. It seems reasonable to assume that these applications would enhance student experiences and course satisfaction, and that therefore educational institutions should invest in these technologies to enhance their student offer. However, this should be tested empirically. In the current study a gender-balanced sample of 302 UK students rated course satisfaction, completed the General Attitudes towards AI Scale (GAAIS), comfortableness with AI educational applications, and course satisfaction if AI educational applications were adopted. Although students were, on average, moderately comfortable...

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) redefines cognitive and social processes in learning environments, yet its psychological and contextual determinants in developing countries remain underexplored. This study investigates engineering students’ adoption of generative AI by integrating the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) with the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) to develop a unified socio-cognitive framework. Survey data from 378 Bangladeshi engineering students were analysed using PLS-SEM and multi-group comparisons to evaluate structural, mediating, and demographic effects. Results demonstrate that behavioural intention is the strongest predictor of AI use,...
