Not quite eye to A.I.: student and teacher perspectives on the use of generative artificial intelligence in the writing process

Abstract Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) can be used to author academic texts at a similar level to what humans are capable of, causing concern about its misuse in education. Addressing the role of GenAI in teaching and learning has become an urgent task. This study reports the results of a survey comparing educators’ (n = 68) and university students’ (n = 158) perceptions on the appropriate use of GenAI in the writing process. The survey included representations of user prompts and output from ChatGP…

Hands-on Artificial Intelligence Education for Radiology Residents: A Three-year Feasibility and Curriculum Implementation Study

Rationale and objectives Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly transformed radiology practice, yet structured and practical AI education remains inconsistently integrated into radiology residency training. We developed and implemented a hands-on AI curriculum designed to integrate core computational principles with clinically relevant imaging applications. This study describes the curriculum design and evaluates its feasibility, reproducibility, and preliminary educational outcomes over three consecutive year…

The AI generation gap: Are Gen Z students more interested in adopting generative AI such as ChatGPT in teaching and learning than their Gen X and millennial generation teachers?

Abstract This study aimed to explore the experiences, perceptions, knowledge, concerns, and intentions of Generation Z (Gen Z) students with Generation X (Gen X) and Generation Y (Gen Y) teachers regarding the use of generative AI (GenAI) in higher education. A sample of students and teachers were recruited to investigate the above using a survey consisting of both open and closed questions. The findings showed that Gen Z participants were generally optimistic about the potential benefits of GenAI, including enh…

Simulating Reality and Transforming Endoscopic Education-Lessons from Esophageal Dilation

Although endoscopic training has traditionally relied on mentorship and procedural volume to assess proficiency, the major gastroenterology societies have increasingly adopted competency-based assessment tools, including the Assessment of Competency in Endoscopy (ACE) and Direct Observation of Procedural Skills (DOPS), to provide a more objective evaluation of technical and cognitive skills. Despite these advances, mentor-based assessment remains susceptible to subjectivity. Emerging technologies such as simulat…

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…

A kind of magic? Artificial intelligence-assisted recording: developing principles for an AI-informed social work curriculum

The deployment of AI tools in social work practice settings is advancing at a pace that social work education has yet to match. Drawing on baseline findings from an independent evaluation of Magic Note, an AI-assisted recording tool deployed across a Scottish Local Authority social work department, this paper uses the empirical experiences of a workforce encountering AI in practice as a window into the underdeveloped implications for qualifying education. The evaluation, which involved 152 practitioners surveyed…

The use of large language models to solve mathematical modeling problems: preservice mathematics teachers’ use practices, perceived affordances and challenges, and trustworthiness judgments of AI-generated outputs

Abstract Mathematical modeling is a core component of mathematics education, enabling learners to connect mathematical ideas with real-world phenomena. Yet, it remains challenging for preservice teachers (PSTs), who must develop their own modeling competence while preparing to guide future students in reasoning about authentic situations. Large language models (LLMs) offer promising, though underexplored, potential to scaffold these complex learning processes by providing real-time explanations, supporting reaso…

Teacher v chatbot: my journey into the classroom in the age of AI

Two years ago, at the age of 39, I began training to be a school teacher. I wanted to teach English – to help young people become stronger readers, writers and thinkers, with a deeper connection to literature. After 15 years of working as a freelance writer and as a novelist, I felt confident that I had something to offer. But the further I progressed in my training, the more uncertain I felt. One particular question taunted me for my lack of an answer. What to do about artificial intelligence? The immediate dil…

AI in the classroom prompts tide of concern from US parents and experts

In October, Kelly Clancy’s son received an assignment in sixth grade at a middle school in Brooklyn, New York, to create a science experiment and then ask Google Gemini, an artificial intelligence chatbot, for feedback, she said. Clancy, who has three children in New York City public schools, told the teacher that the bot “is something that just teaches kids that they can have machines do the thinking for them”, instead of suggesting: “Let’s talk to your partners. What about the science experiment could you impr…
