Artificial Intelligence in Education: Implications for Policymakers, Researchers, and Practitioners

Abstract One trending theme within research on learning and teaching is an emphasis on artificial intelligence (AI). While AI offers opportunities in the educational arena, blindly replacing human involvement is not the answer. Instead, current research suggests that the key lies in harnessing the strengths of both humans and AI to create a more effective and beneficial learning and teaching experience. Thus, the importance of ‘humans in the loop’ is becoming a central tenet of educational AI. As AI technology a…

Innovative Teaching Methods Supported by Artificial Intelligence and Students’ Mathematical Problem-Solving: The Mediating Role of Student Engagement

The study investigated how innovative, AI-supported teaching methods relate to the mathematics problem-solving ability of Senior High School (SHS) students in Ghana. This study examined how teachers’ AI-supported pedagogical practices relate to students’ problem-solving ability, the extent to which student engagement serves as an explanatory variable for that relationship, and whether students’ mathematical self-belief (MSB) moderates that relationship. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed; partici…

The EAP‐AIAS: Adapting the AI Assessment Scale for English for Academic Purposes

ABSTRACT The advancement of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is complicating traditional techniques in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) instruction. This paper proposes a novel adaptation of an existing scale (the AI Assessment Scale), which is designed to facilitate effective learning and assessment in the era of GenAI. We label this the EAP AI Assessment Scale (EAP‐AIAS). The EAP‐AIAS consists of five levels, ranging from “No AI” to “Full AI,” each delineating appropriate GenAI usage in EAP tasks.…
