Assessing AI adoption in developing country academia: A trust and privacy-augmented UTAUT framework

The rapid evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its widespread adoption have given rise to a critical need for understanding the underlying factors that shape users' behavioral intentions. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to explain user perceived behavioral intentions and use behavior of AI technologies for academic purposes in a developing country. This study has adopted the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model and extended it with two dimensions: trust and pri…

Sustainable adoption of artificial intelligence and the Metaverse in higher education: an environmental, social, and governance–based analysis of pedagogical innovation and perceived student learning outcomes

The rapid convergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Metaverse technologies is reshaping the higher education landscape by enabling immersive, personalized, and adaptive learning experiences. However, the long-term sustainability of such innovations remains uncertain without addressing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations. This study develops and empirically validates an ESG-informed framework for Sustainable AI-Metaverse Adoption (SAAM) in higher education. A quantitative research des…

Navigating opportunities and challenges of generative AI in higher education: towards responsible, equitable, and human-centered integration

The rapid emergence of generative AI (GenAI) tools, such as ChatGPT, presents transformative potential for higher education (HE) while also raising significant ethical, pedagogical, and policy- related concerns. This systematic and thematic review, based on 46 documents from the Web of Science (WoS), narrows its qualitative analysis to 27 peer-reviewed articles to explore key trends in implementation. Findings highlight GenAI's benefits in improving personalized learning, self-regulated strategies, and adaptive…

<scp>AI</scp>‐driven adaptive learning for sustainable educational transformation

Abstract This paper scrutinizes how adaptive learning technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) are transforming today's education by making it personalized, accessible, and efficient as well as leading people to accepting, addressing, and mitigating sustainable development. Recently, education witnessed a remarkable technological surge driven by various advances in technology, which can be demonstrated by the increase of the number of scientific publications on this topic from just 1 in 1990 to 636 in 2023.…

Den-SOFA: Dental Student Outcome Forecasting Assistant using explainable machine learning models

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are increasingly being explored in dental education to support academic assessment and identify students at risk of poor performance. However, predictive modeling in this setting remains challenging because complex, nonlinear relationships among academic and demographic variables influence student achievement. Moreover, the value of such models lies not only in prediction but also in interpretability. This study evaluated Den-SOFA, an explainable ML framewor…

The effects of AI-based visual instruction on the reading comprehension of students with dyslexia in Saudi Arabia: a single-case experimental study

Students with learning disabilities (LD), particularly dyslexia, often face significant challenges in reading comprehension that traditional instruction may not fully address. Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) offers emerging opportunities to provide personalised and visual instructional support to bridge these gaps. This study investigated the effectiveness of a GenAI-based visual instruction to support the reading comprehension skills of students with dyslexia. A single-case experimental design using…

The impact of robot-assisted language learning (RALL) on EFL students’ classroom engagement and willingness to attend classes (WTAC): A technology acceptance model (TAM) perspective

Recently, a surge of scholarly attention has been paid to the impacts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools on second/foreign language (L2) education. Nonetheless, there is a lack of evidence on the role of AI-assisted robots or robot-assisted language learning (RALL) in English as a foreign language (EFL) students’ psycho-emotional factors and academic behaviors. To address this gap, drawing on the technology acceptance model (TAM), the present study probed into the impact of robot-assisted L2 education on Chin…

Manipulation and Deception in Generative AI-Mediated Education: Preserving Epistemic Agency, Critical Thinking, and Creativity

Abstract Generative AI now mediates core parts of learning, yet we lack criteria to tell its legitimate pedagogical uses from manipulative and deceptive ones. We also know too little about how AI reshapes the growth of critical thinking and creativity, or about whether it accelerates drift from educational goods to evaluative metrics. Using a postdigital, pragmatist lens that treats classrooms as sociomaterial assemblages of people, platforms, and institutions, we propose three orienting principles: moral legiti…

Human-AI co-creation or conflict? Mapping art students’ diverse perspectives on creative identity with genAI: A Q methodology study

Abstract Generative AI (GenAI) is rapidly transforming creative fields, raising critical questions about its impact on artistic identity and authorship, which also influence art education. While studies have explored GenAI adoption, the diversity of art students’ subjective perspectives on collaborating with these tools remains under-examined. This study uses Q methodology, a mixed-methods approach to investigating subjectivity, to explore the distinct perspectives art students hold regarding their creative iden…

AI-enhanced pedagogical practices and mathematical language proficiency in STEM education

This study investigates the effectiveness of AI-enhanced pedagogical practices on improving the mathematical language proficiency of senior high school students in Ghana. The current research adopted a quantitative cross-sectional design, where the structural equation modeling approach was used on a sample size of 360 participants, to investigate digital literacy and learning engagement as partial mediators. As expected, results from this study show that AEPP, DL, and LE are statistically significant positive pr…
