Investigation of students’ perceptions and opinions on the use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in education is a topic gaining much interest. Studies addressing this are typically conducted with large heterogeneous groups, at one moment in ...

People often compare themselves to their peers in various contexts, including education. Usage of this general tendency becomes an effective strategy to enhance students’ motivation. Several successful implementations of social comparison in ...

This paper evaluates an automatically extracted domain model from textbooks and applies learning curve analysis to assess its ability to represent students’ knowledge and learning. Results show that extracted concepts are meaningful knowledge ...

Blended learning offers a diverse learning experience through multiple activities inside and outside the classroom, which can improve student knowledge, as there are multiple opportunities for learning. However, managing these activities requires an ...

The growing ubiquity, rich functionality, and relative affordability of mobile devices have been seen as opportune factors for implementing mobile learning solutions that can be used in a variety of contexts and domains. Plenty of successful mobile ...

The advancement of computational Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the recent decade has been transformative for many domains, including AI in Education. One direction, where it has caused a noticeable increase in research activity, is application ...

The transition of textbooks from printed copies to digital and online formats has facilitated numerous attempts to enrich them with various kinds of interactive functionalities, link them with external resources or extract valuable information ...

Traditionally, systems supporting blended learning focus only on one portion of the course by tracing students’ interaction with learning content at home. In this paper, we argue that in-class activity can be also instrumental in eliciting the ...

A typical index at the end of a textbook contains a manually-provided vocabulary of terms related to the content of the textbook. In this paper, we extend our previous work on extraction of knowledge models from digital textbooks. We are taking a more ...

Textbooks are educational documents created, structured and formatted by domain experts with the main purpose to explain the knowledge in the domain to a novice. Authors use their understanding of the domain when structuring and formatting the content ...

Informing students about their progress in comparison to their peers has been widely used in educational research as a strong motivational factor, effective gamification technique and means for adaptive guidance to learning material. A typical ...

Previous research on technology-enhanced learning indicated that exposing students to information related to their peers’ performance might positively or negatively affect their behavior and performance. For example, recent research has ...

Textbooks are educational documents created, structured and formatted in a way that facilitates understanding. Most digital textbooks are released as mere digital copies of their printed counterparts. We present a mechanism that extracts knowledge ...

As the modern TEL tools gain wider adoption in real educational contexts, they start facing important practical problems. One such problem for adaptive educational systems is the reliability of their student modelling mechanisms. Even when such a ...

We describe an approach to using ICT for assessing mathematics achievement of pupils using learning environments for mathematics. In particular, we look at fine-grained cognitive assessment of free-form answers to math story problems, which ...

Presents the introductory editorial for this issue of the publication.

This paper presents an in-depth analysis of a nonconventional topic-based personalization approach for adaptive educational systems (AES) that we have explored for a number of years in the context of university programming courses. With this approach ...

Training children safe behavior in traffic situations is both important and challenging. One of the problems is children’s limited perceptual-motor abilities and associated difficulties with important cognitive skills required to be safe ...
