Implications of artificial intelligence in learning and education
Submission status
Closed
Submission deadline
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize learning and teaching, introducing a new and unfamiliar type of learner. Such technology is fundamentally a tool for our disposal, and like any tool, we must understand how it works and how best to deploy it.
This special Collection in npj Science of Learning invites research on the functional operation and capability of modern AI, and the consequent implications of its use as a technology to enhance learning and pedagogy. We particularly welcome articles that examine AI's strengths, weaknesses and opportunities in teaching and learning, and those that address ethical, societal, and broader educational considerations associated with its implementation.
We will consider theoretical work and review papers, and give highest priority to empirical studies on human-AI interaction. We will not consider work focused only on AI, e.g; algoritm analysis. Please see here for guidance.
Pragmatic, scalable and sustainable responses to persistent socio-emotional issues such as mathematics anxiety remain elusive. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a promising approach by enhancing students’ perceptions of competence, control, and value while transforming teacher-student interactions. This paper advocates for a research agenda exploring AI’s role in shaping achievement emotions and calls for a broader shift in educational research toward leveraging AI for meaningful and transformative learning experiences.
