Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of Education Sciences will examine key topics associated with the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on teaching and learning in K-12 and postsecondary education. AI is rapidly expanding in both capacity and usage in the field of education. However, there is variance in what educators and students know about best practices with implementing AI into teaching and learning. In this formative stage, there is a need for experimental results and case studies on the effectiveness of AI technologies to guide ethical practice.
This Special Issue aims to highlight, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Impact of AI on Student Learning Outcomes and Engagement;
- Impact of AI on Teaching Practices and Pedagogical Strategies;
- Impact of AI on Personalization and Differentiation;
- Impact of AI on Assessment and Feedback Practices;
- Impact of AI on Teacher Professional Development and Readiness;
- Impact of AI on Educational Equity and Access;
- Impact of AI on Student Experience;
- Impact of AI on Student Identity and Agency;
- Impact of AI on Ethical and Responsible Use in Education.
Researchers, educators, and practitioners are invited to contribute manuscripts to this Special Issue. The authors will ground their research in current and seminal literature and utilize quantitative and/or qualitative research methods to investigate their selected topic. Clear findings that exhibit the impact of AI on teaching and learning will be presented, including recommendations for practical usage of AI in K-12 and/or postsecondary educational settings.
