This study aimed to explore the perceived impact of using an AI-powered voice journaling app in overcoming the challenges and stressors encountered by senior students enrolled in teaching practicum at an English Language Teaching Bachelor's programme. The main objective of this study is to examine the perceived effect of an AI-powered audio diary app known…

This study examined how different types of conversational disengagement relate to middle-school students’ mathematical learning with an AI-powered teachable agent embedded in a large-scale platform. (pdf)

Kunstig intelligens kan føre skolen i tre svært forskjellige retninger, mener professor. Elevene kan få mer tid til med læreren eller mer tid foran skjermen.

AI kan skriva texter och lösa uppgifter på några sekunder. Men vad händer med lärandet när elever inte längre behöver göra hela tankearbetet själva? Det ska forskare vid Umeå universitet undersöka tillsammans med en gymnasieskola i Umeå. 

There is growing concern that AI can blunt memory and reasoning. But science shows ways to keep the brain sharp. Earlier this year, education researcher Lixiang Yan realized that students could outsource all of their work for his university course to artificial intelligence.

Generative AI tools are reshaping student learning, offering both opportunities and risks. While research indicates that students have integrated GenAI tools into their school tasks, little is known about how they use them and about the epistemic practices that emerge from their interactions with AI. (pdf)

A study of more than 70 large language models found similar answers to brainstorming and creative writing prompts.

Forskare och lärare i Umeå har undersökt hur generativ AI kan stödja elevers skrivutveckling i engelska. Nu har projektgruppen presenterat sina resultat vid en internationell konferens om AI i skrivundervisning.

När generativ AI svepte in över världen kände många elever att de lämnades vind för våg. De fick ingen vägledning i hur verktygen kunde användas, och förtroendet mellan lärare och elever fick sig en törn.

Hindrar AI barn från att lära sig? Frågan kan ställas. En ny stor studie visar att elever klarade läxor bra – men proven uselt.

Using 30 months of panel data on 26,811 Chinese students in grades 7ñ12, we study how generative AI affects homework productivity and learning. Thedata combine monthly closed-book exams, high-school and college entrance exams, and homework scores and completion time across nine subjects. We exploit staggered AI adoption in a difference-in-differences design. AI adoption raises homework…
