The accessibility of advanced Artificial Intelligence-based tools, like ChatGPT, has made Large Language Models (LLMs) readily available to students. These LLMs can generate original written content to assist students in their academic assessments. With the rapid adoption of LLMs, exemplified by the popularity of OpenAI's ChatGPT, there is a growing need to explore their application in education. Few studies examine students' use of LLMs as learning tools. This paper focuses on the application of ChatGPT in engineering higher education through an in-depth case study. It investigates whether engineering students can generate high-quality university essays with LLMs assistance, whether...

The rapid integration of generative AI into K–12 education presents both opportunities and challenges for supporting students’ learning. This mixed-methods case study examined how high school students interacted with an AI-enhanced resume writing unit and a text-based mock interview unit within an English Language Arts course. Quantitative results indicated students’ positive perceptions of AI utility across constructs of awareness, usage, evaluation, and ethics. Qualitative analysis revealed that students used AI to explore career information, generate and refine resume content, and iteratively revise and refine interview responses. While many students engaged critically—questioning,...

El presente estudio surge ante el reciente auge de la mediación lingüística en la clase de enseñanza de idiomas. Si bien es verdad que el concepto de mediación lingüística aparece como uno de los pilares de la competencia comunicativa en el Marco Común Europeo para las Lenguas, no ha sido hasta ahora cuando se está empezando a tomarla en consideración en las aulas. Nuestro estudio persigue un doble objetivo. Por un lado, pretende conocer las actitudes e ideas de un grupo de 88 estudiantes de 2º de Bachillerato respecto a la mediación lingüística. Por otro, queremos saber si su nivel de lengua extranjera influye en esas ideas y actitudes.  Los resultados parecen indicar que los...

With the increasing integration of AI chatbots into education, understanding the factors that influence students' adoption intentions offers an empirical basis for further research in educational technology. However, empirical studies integrating multiple analytical approaches remain limited, particularly in China context. This study investigated Chinese university students' intention to adopt AI chatbots for learning by examining six individual-level predictors: performance expectancy (PE), effort expectancy (EE), social influence (SI), perceived trust (PT), personal innovativeness (PI), and perceived enjoyment (PEN). Survey data from 635 Chinese university students were analyzed using an...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has gained acceptance in the field of education. Nevertheless, existing research on AI in education, particularly in foreign language (FL) learning and teaching, is notably limited in scope and depth. In the present study, we addressed this research gap by investigating social and computer science students' perceptions of the integration and use of AI-based technologies in education, focusing specifically on foreign language teaching. Using an online questionnaire, we analysed factors such as students' field of study, gender differences, and the type of AI used. The questionnaire included statements categorised into thematic clusters, with responses measured on...

AI tutors are becoming the new faces of digital classrooms, but these faces may determine who is trusted and who is ignored. Anthropomorphic avatars designed to increase engagement, may also activate social heuristics that reproduce offline patterns of bias. Yet little empirical research has examined how these identity cues shape epistemic trust and enacted reliance in AI-mediated learning. This study addresses this gap by systematically isolating their effects on learners' evaluative judgments and behavioral uptake in diverse learning contexts. Two experiments examined how avatar race, gender, and age shape trust in AI-mediated education. Study 1 (N = 102) used a within-subjects laboratory...

AI chatbots have ignited discussions and controversies about their impact on teaching and learning practices in higher education. This study explores students' adoption and perceptions of ChatGPT and other AI chatbots in higher education. Based on survey data from a large sample (n = 5894) across Swedish universities, the study employs descriptive statistical methods to analyze usage, attitudes, and concerns, and inferential statistics to identify relations between attitudes and usage and background variables (gender, academic level, and field of study). The results reveal broad awareness and use of ChatGPT among students, but not of other AI chatbots. More than half of the students...

En el presente artículo se dan a conocer los resultados de la investigación que tiene como finalidad abordar el papel de las variables afectivas motivación y actitudes en el aprendizaje del español como lengua extranjera (E/LE) en un contexto formal extraescolar. Este estudio se sitúa en el campo de adquisición del español como lengua extranjera con aprendientes adultos alemanes. Se ha optado por una metodología que se adapta a los modelos de tipo descriptivo correlacional para establecer las posibles relaciones entre las variables estudiadas. Para medir estadísticamente las posibles correlaciones entre las variables estudiadas, se ha aplicado el Coeficiente de Correlación de Pearson (r)....

This study builds on the recent interest in AI adoption research in academic settings by highlighting the need for culturally sensitive AI educational tools. The study achieved this by demonstrating how cultural differences shape students' motivation and AI use. This study adopts a cross-country comparative analytical approach to explore postgraduate students’ motivation to continue using AI tools in the context of higher education. The study developed a theoretical model based on Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and Expectation Disconfirmation Theory (EDT) to explore how perceived competence, perceived relatedness and perceived autonomy influence the continuance use intention of AI tools in...

This study explores the perception of artificial intelligence (AI)-based Chatbots, specifically Open AI's ChatGPT use, among physics students in four universities in Ghana, Jordan, and the United States. We utilized a survey instrument adapted from the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to elicit responses from 804 students. TAM constructs: Perceived Usefulness (PU), Perceived Ease of Use (PEU), Subjective Norms (SN), Attitude Towards Technology Use (ATU), Behavioral Intention (BI), and User Behavior (UB) were assessed. We also assessed perceptions of ethical use (EU) and student learning outcomes (SLO) using a Structural Equation Model (SEM) approach. A measurement model had good fit...
