While AI-based educational technologies offer many features designed to support learning, it remains unclear which specific components actually contribute to improved student outcomes. Identifying these active ingredients—the subset of an intervention's core components that are demonstrably associated with learning gains—is essential. Yet, evidence from experimental studies remains limited. To address this gap, we conducted a secondary analysis of data from the treatment group of a randomized controlled trial involving 902 middle school students across three U.S. school districts who used MI Write, an automated writing evaluation (AWE) system. Drawing on implementation science, we examined...

In situations like the coronavirus pandemic, colleges and universities are forced to limit their offline and regular academic activities. Extended postponement of high-stakes exams due to health risk hereby reduces productivity and progress in later years. Several countries decided to organize the exams online. Since many other countries with large education boards had an inadequate infrastructure and insufficient resources during the emergency, education policy experts considered a solution to simultaneously protect public health and fully resume high-stakes exams -by canceling offline exam and introducing a uniform assessment process to be followed across the states and education boards....

Predictive analytics in education holds promise for supporting student learning but poses risks of bias potentially disadvantaging certain groups based on demographic attributes such as gender. Prior work on fairness in educational prediction has largely focused on binary outcomes in higher education, leaving continuous predictions, such as standardized test scores, comparatively understudied, especially in early schooling where consequences can be long-lasting. Despite a few fairness metrics available for continuous outcomes, they often rely on mean differences, obscuring distributional disparities that may disadvantage specific students. Even fewer studies have attempted to address bias...

Personality traits and educational technology may affect how well students utilise their abilities and strategies to achieve their learning objectives and potential. As generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is creating new learning experiences, understanding the impact of five representative personality traits on students' self-regulated learning (SRL) while learning with GenAI tools can help to predict which personality traits indicate better self-regulation when learning with this innovative educational technology. Such a prediction can help educators to design effective learning activities by providing educational experiences that cater to students' different personality traits for...

El presente artículo se enmarca en un proyecto de investigación en curso que tiene como objetivo principal la adopción de una escala de descriptores para la calificación de la prueba oral de ELE de nivel C2 de la Universidad de Verona. Para ello se ha introducido, además del uso de una escala de descriptores, el de las fichas de calificación, que permite a los evaluadores anotar ejemplos representativos de la actuación de cada candidato, así como diferentes valoraciones de la misma basadas en la escala utilizada. Esta segunda herramienta sirve de ayuda a la hora de decidir la calificación y permite obtener una mayor transparencia del proceso. Sin embargo, al hacer las anotaciones, los...

Multiple studies have shown that scaffolding plays an important role in regulating and enhancing students' metacognitive monitoring and reflections. However, scaffolding students' reflections in large courses is a major challenge. In the current study, we explored how real-time, technology-enhanced scaffolding affects the quality of students' reflections and academic performance. Two major research questions are: RQ1) Do students in the scaffolding condition construct more specific reflections than those in the non-scaffolding condition? RQ2) How do the scaffolding feature, reflection specificity, and the number of reflections relate to students' academic performance? To address these...

El presente estudio investiga el empleo y la función pragmática de las estrategias relacionadas con la cortesía verbal. Analiza un corpus producido por los escritos generados por estudiantes norteamericanos y hablantes nativos de español que realizaron la Tarea 1 de la prueba de interacción y expresión escrita del Proyecto de Examen Multinivel de Certificación del Español Académico de la Universidad Antonio de Nebrija. Para llevar a cabo el proyecto se identificaron el patrimonio estratégico relacionado con el tratamiento al docente, el nivel de dirección, los modificadores internos y los modificadores externos en el encabezado, cuerpo y cierre de sus correos electrónicos. Los...

Prior learning preparation, encompassing learners' prior knowledge, resources, and readiness for learning new material, plays a critical role in a new learning process. Unequal learning preparation commonly exists among learners with varying socioeconomic and academic backgrounds, and can further exacerbate the educational divide. By reducing learning cost and providing less prepared learners with personalized delivery of information and knowledge, Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) may help mitigate disparities in learning preparation. In this study, we investigate the roles of learners' use of GenAI in their learning processes, considering varying levels of learners’ prior...

Despite poetry’s important role in improving linguistic skills and creative thinking, students often find poetry writing to be difficult and boring. This study is an investigation of how the digital Poetry Machine influences students’ poetry writing by applying AI techniques. It uses qualitative and quantitative analysis of the log data of poems that the seventh graders wrote with the Poetry Machine. The results show that the draft poems functioned as affordances, which the students followed as models. The drafts encouraged students to experiment with several different poetic features. The data suggest an association between the number of edited versions and the quality of the final poem....
