With the aid of artificial intelligence (AI), it is more feasible to leverage discussion data to understand the online collaborative learning process. This paper presented an AI-supported discussion representational tool (integrating behavioral and cognitive representations) aimed at enhancing online collaborative learning from three aspects: motivation, cognitive presence, and learning performance. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted to examine the tool's effectiveness with 122 students in four groups: (1) behavioral representation (n = 31), (2) cognitive representation (n = 31), (3) mixed mode (combining behavioral and cognitive representations, n = 30), and (4) a control group (n = 30). Results indicated that: (1) the discussion representational tool did not significantly enhance students' motivation but led to significant gains in their learning performance compared to the control group; (2) students who learned with the discussion representational tool showed significant improvements in higher-order cognitive presence, ordered network analysis revealed that they generated more higher-level cognitive connections; (3) the motivation is an effective predictor of cognitive presence and learning performance, and discussion representational tool positively moderated the relationship between motivation, cognitive presence, and learning performance. These findings represent a new contribution of the AI-supported discussion representational tool to facilitate online collaborative learning.
借助人工智能(AI),利用讨论数据了解在线协作学习过程变得更加可行。本文介绍了一种人工智能支持的讨论表征工具(整合了行为和认知表征),旨在从动机、认知存在和学习成绩三个方面提高在线协作学习。研究人员对 122 名学生进行了随机对照试验(RCT),以检验该工具的有效性,试验分为四组:(1) 行为表征组(n = 31);(2) 认知表征组(n = 31);(3) 混合模式组(结合行为表征和认知表征,n = 30);(4) 对照组(n = 30)。结果表明(1) 与对照组相比,讨论表征工具没有显著提高学生的学习动机,但使他们的学习成绩有了显著提高;(2) 使用讨论表征工具学习的学生在高阶认知存在方面有了显著提高,有序网络分析显示他们产生了更多高层次的认知联系;(3) 学习动机是认知存在和学习成绩的有效预测因素,讨论表征工具对学习动机、认知存在和学习成绩之间的关系起到了积极的调节作用。这些发现代表了人工智能支持的讨论表征工具在促进在线协作学习方面的新贡献。

Exploring the influential factors of online professional learning completion of college teachers from the Global South in an international training program 探索国际培训项目中全球南部高校教师完成在线专业学习的影响因素
IF 6.4 1区 教育学 Q1 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH Pub Date : 2024-08-14 DOI: 10.1016/j.iheduc.2024.100963

Online courses emerged as an important mode for large-scale cross-national teachers' professional learning. However, with most previous research on teacher online professional learning (TOPL) focusing on resource-rich and technology-advanced regions, little attention has been paid to the factors influencing the online learning completion of college teachers in Global South contexts. This study aimed to explore the facilitators and inhibitors of this population's online learning completion in a cross-country program. In seven courses, individual, institutional, and country-level data of 3529 teacher-learners from 99 countries were collected. Forty-two learners were further interviewed. We adopted hierarchical linear modeling to analyze the nested relationships among the individual/institutional/country-level factors and course completion. Results revealed several significant associations between individual/institutional/country-level variables and course completion, as well as several moderation effects. Interviews complemented the analytics results. This study uncovers influential factors of TOPL in Global South contexts and provides practical implications for college teachers' online professional learning.

在线课程已成为大规模跨国教师专业学习的重要模式。然而,以往关于教师在线专业学习(TOPL)的研究大多集中在资源丰富、技术先进的地区,很少有人关注影响全球南部地区高校教师完成在线学习的因素。本研究旨在探索在跨国项目中,促进和抑制这类人群完成在线学习的因素。在七门课程中,收集了来自 99 个国家的 3529 名教师学习者的个人、机构和国家层面的数据。我们还进一步采访了 42 名学习者。我们采用分层线性模型分析了个人/机构/国家层面因素与课程完成之间的嵌套关系。结果显示,个人/机构/国家层面的变量与课程完成情况之间存在几种重要的关联以及几种调节效应。访谈对分析结果进行了补充。本研究揭示了在全球南部背景下 TOPL 的影响因素,并为高校教师的在线专业学习提供了实际启示。

Effects of an AI-supported approach to peer feedback on university EFL students' feedback quality and writing ability 人工智能支持的同伴反馈方法对大学英语学生反馈质量和写作能力的影响
IF 6.4 1区 教育学 Q1 EDUCATION & EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH Pub Date : 2024-07-14 DOI: 10.1016/j.iheduc.2024.100962

This study examined the impact of an artificial intelligence (AI)-supported approach to peer feedback provision on the feedback quality and writing ability of English as a foreign language (EFL) student reviewers. The researchers integrated an AI chatbot named Eva into an online peer review system to assist students in generating feedback. A total of 124 Chinese undergraduate students participated in nine peer review tasks over three weeks, with 64 students in the experimental group (using Eva) and 60 students in the control group (without AI support). Pre- and post-tests were conducted to assess the quality of student reviewers' peer feedback and these feedback providers' writing performance before and after the intervention. The findings revealed that the intervention significantly enhanced students' feedback quality. Additionally, the study showed that the proposed approach improved feedback providers' writing ability. This research underscores the potential of AI technology in enhancing EFL writing instruction.

The rise of microlearning both for professional training and in the field of education seems unstoppable. Nonetheless, there is a lack of evidence of its learning effectiveness and student satisfaction. The purpose of this paper is to uncover these two aspects of microlearning when taking part in a business education program. Its originality is that it analyses in depth a fast-growing EdTech startup that provides business training using microlearning methods, exploring the effect in terms of student satisfaction and learning effectiveness when combining a significant number of microlearning lessons to create a macro-learning course. Findings show that learning effectiveness is mainly explained by the reason for enrolling in this type of training and its applicability to the students' current jobs, resulting in four possible learning outcomes of increasing levels of effectiveness: entertainment, updating knowledge and skills, unexpected learning, and effective learning. This paper helps fill a gap in the research on learner satisfaction and microlearning effectiveness, finding that they are not necessarily guaranteed. It also has practical implications for designing, recruiting for, and implementing microlearning-based programs.

Keypoints: Empirical research into microlearning effectiveness and student satisfaction in postgraduate business education. Exploring the effectiveness of macro-learning, or the grouping of a significant number of microlearning lessons into a learning program. Uncovering different levels of learning effectiveness and their antecedent conditions.

微学习在专业培训和教育领域的兴起似乎势不可挡。然而,关于微学习的学习效果和学生满意度却缺乏证据。本文旨在揭示微学习在参加商业教育项目时的这两个方面。本文的独创性在于,它深入分析了一家利用微学习方法提供商业培训的快速发展的教育科技初创公司,探讨了在将大量微学习课程组合成宏学习课程时,学生满意度和学习效果的影响。研究结果表明,学习效果主要取决于参加此类培训的原因及其对学生当前工作的适用性,由此可能产生四种效果程度依次递增的学习结果:娱乐、更新知识和技能、意外学习和有效学习。本文有助于填补关于学员满意度和微观学习效果的研究空白,发现它们并不一定有保证。它还对设计、招聘和实施基于微学习的项目具有实际意义:商业研究生教育中微观学习效果和学生满意度的实证研究。探索宏观学习的有效性,或将大量微观学习课程组合成一个学习项目。揭示不同层次的学习效果及其先决条件。

The number of research doctorate degrees awarded by US institutions per year has increased steadily over the decades. However, the academic job market is also becoming more competitive, and doctoral candidates often face difficulties in developing a professional identity and making career-related decisions. In this study, we investigated PhD students' professional identity formation with regard to their usage of social networking sites (SNSs). Through semi-structured interviews with 16 students in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), we found that self-presentation and online presence in the online community were considered necessary. Students' perception of using SNSs for professional activities was impacted by their peers and faculty. SNSs helped students gain information and support from online communities and also reflected their professional identities. The results present insights for transforming doctoral education and preparing students for diverse career options in today's economy.

几十年来,美国院校每年授予的研究博士学位数量稳步增长。然而,学术就业市场的竞争也日趋激烈,博士生在建立职业认同和做出职业相关决策时往往面临困难。在本研究中,我们调查了博士生在使用社交网站(SNS)方面的职业认同形成情况。通过对 16 名人机交互(HCI)专业的学生进行半结构式访谈,我们发现在网络社区中进行自我展示和在线存在被认为是必要的。学生对使用 SNS 开展专业活动的看法受到了同学和教师的影响。SNS 帮助学生从网络社区获得信息和支持,同时也反映了他们的专业身份。研究结果为转变博士生教育和培养学生在当今经济形势下的多样化职业选择提供了启示。

ChatGPT could allow students to plagiarize the content of their coursework with little risk of detection. Little is known about undergraduate willingness to use AI tools. In this study, psychology undergraduates (N = 160) from the United Kingdom, indicated their willingness to use, and history of using, ChatGPT to write university assignments. Almost a third (32%) indicated that they would use such tools; 15% indicated that they had used them already. Neither personality (conscientiousness, agreeableness, Machiavellianism, narcissism), academic performance, nor study skills self-efficacy could predict future use of AI tools. A novel Degree Apathy Scale was the only significant predictor. Willingness to use AI tools was greater when the risk of getting caught was low, and punishment was light, particularly for those high in degree apathy. Findings suggest that degree apathy is a key risk factor in academic misconduct. Wider research and pedagogical applications of degree apathy are discussed.

ChatGPT 可以让学生在几乎不被发现的情况下剽窃他们的课业内容。人们对本科生使用人工智能工具的意愿知之甚少。在这项研究中,来自英国的心理学本科生(N = 160)表示他们愿意使用 ChatGPT 来撰写大学作业,并且有使用 ChatGPT 的历史。近三分之一(32%)的人表示会使用此类工具;15%的人表示已经使用过。人格(自觉性、合意性、马基雅维利主义、自恋)、学习成绩和学习技能自我效能感都无法预测未来人工智能工具的使用情况。新的冷漠程度量表是唯一显著的预测指标。当被抓的风险较低且惩罚较轻时,使用人工智能工具的意愿会更强,尤其是对程度冷漠程度较高的人而言。研究结果表明,学位冷漠是学术不端行为的一个关键风险因素。本文讨论了学位冷漠的更广泛的研究和教学应用。

Smartphone distraction is pervasive in university classrooms, yet our understanding of its determinants remains incomplete. Drawing on complexity theory and the technology–personal–environment framework, this study employs multiple data sets for exploring the primary predictors and their configurations in determining in-class smartphone distraction among university students. Based on the interview data from 15 undergraduate students, seven primary predictors of smartphone distraction were identified. Subsequently, the study delved into the questionnaire data collected from 563 Chinese university students and revealed four combinations of the predictors for in-class smartphone distraction through fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. This study contributes to the literature on in-class smartphone distraction by revealing its complex nature and offering practical strategies for educational practitioners to counteract the adverse effects of smartphone distraction in university classrooms.

One of the most significant issues with online education is that students disengage and eventually drop out of the course due to their inability to remain active in the online environment. Thus, disengagement from online courses has been seen as an important obstacle to the successful continuation of the online learning process. This study aimed to empirically explore the disengagement from online courses with a proposed model. A structural model was tested to explain the causal relationship among disengagement, cyberloafing, self-regulation skills, and satisfaction in online learning. The study group consisted of 843 undergraduates from a midsized institution in Turkey who were enrolled in an online course at the time of the study. Results showed that cyberloafing and satisfaction were significant predictors of disengagement, while self-regulation had an indirect effect on it. The study's findings indicated that online instructors and educational policymakers should focus more on fostering satisfaction and enhancing students' self-regulation abilities while keeping cyberloafing under control to prevent disengagement from online courses in the age of digital transformation.

在线教育最重要的问题之一是,学生由于无法在在线环境中保持活跃而脱离并最终退出课程。因此,脱离在线课程已被视为成功继续在线学习过程的一个重要障碍。本研究旨在通过一个拟议模型对脱离在线课程进行实证探索。研究人员建立了一个结构模型来解释脱离、网络闲逛、自我调节能力和在线学习满意度之间的因果关系。研究小组由来自土耳其一所中型院校的 843 名本科生组成,他们在研究期间注册了一门在线课程。结果表明,网络游离和满意度是脱离的重要预测因素,而自我调节对其有间接影响。研究结果表明,在数字化转型时代,在线教师和教育政策制定者应更加注重培养学生的满意度,提高他们的自我调节能力,同时控制网络休闲,以防止学生脱离在线课程。

The study's findings indicated that online instructors and educational policymakers should focus more on fostering satisfaction and enhancing students' self-regulation abilities while keeping cyberloafing under control to prevent disengagement from online courses in the age of digital transformation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48186,"journal":{"name":"Internet and Higher Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140348145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Students with learning disabilities meet difficulties in cognitive abilities that are likely to affect their learning, especially online learning. Online learning usually lacks efficient face-to-face monitoring and leads to poor learning outcomes; in this case, students' self-regulated learning in an online environment matter. However, Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) status remains unclear for those with learning disabilities and how their working memory and processing speed affect self-regulated learning. A total of 147 undergraduate students were recruited from three public and four private universities in Taiwan to join this study, and they completed a self-reported questionnaire and several psychological measures. Our results revealed significant differences in SRL features between typically developing Chinese undergraduates and those with learning disabilities in an online environment. Compared to the students with learning disabilities, typically developing students outperformed in metacognitive skills, time management, environmental structuring, and persistence. Help-seeking was comparable between both groups. Working memory significantly contributed to SRL in all students, whereas processing speed only significantly influenced SRL in students with learning disabilities. The findings of this study have important implications for educators, researchers, and instructional designers aiming to optimize online learning experiences and support, especially from the perspective of SRL, for all students, particularly those with learning disabilities.

有学习障碍的学生在认知能力方面会遇到困难,这很可能会影响他们的学习,尤其是在线学习。在线学习通常缺乏高效的面对面监控,导致学习效果不佳;在这种情况下,学生在在线环境中的自我调节学习就显得尤为重要。然而,学习障碍者的自我调节学习(SRL)状况以及他们的工作记忆和处理速度如何影响自我调节学习仍不清楚。本研究从台湾三所公立大学和四所私立大学共招募了147名本科生,他们完成了自我报告问卷和多项心理测量。研究结果表明,在网络环境下,发育正常的中国大学生与有学习障碍的中国大学生在自学能力方面存在明显差异。与学习障碍学生相比,典型发展型学生在元认知技能、时间管理、环境结构和坚持性方面表现突出。两组学生的求助能力相当。工作记忆对所有学生的自学能力都有明显的促进作用,而处理速度只对学习障碍学生的自学能力有明显的影响。这项研究的发现对教育工作者、研究人员和教学设计人员具有重要意义,他们的目标是优化在线学习体验和支持,特别是从自学能力的角度出发,为所有学生,尤其是有学习障碍的学生提供帮助。

Collaborative knowledge construction has been used in higher education to support student groups' collaborative learning activities through students' exchange, negotiation, and reflection of perspectives through peer communications. To support this process, collaborative learning analytics tools have been designed to collect and analyze collaborative process and performance data with a goal to provide actionable feedback and improve learning quality. However, few tools have demonstrated the mechanism and details about how students develop their perspectives during the collaborative knowledge construction process in higher education. To fill this gap, this research proposed a tool named Collaborative Argument Map (CAM) that creatively visualized different types of perspectives students proposed from the individual, peer, and group levels. This tool was further implemented in a graduate-level course in online collaborative writing activities in China's higher education, with a goal to support students' knowledge construction with peers. The summative and process-oriented learning analytics approaches were conducted to reveal the effects of CAM on students' collaborative perceptions, processes, and final products. Results showed that most students made substantive use of the CAM tool and reported positive perceptions of the tool. Further examinations verified the tool's positive effects on improving the students' cognitive engagement levels and the quality of their final collaborative writing products. This research provided practical implications for future CLA tool design and instructional implications for using this type of tool in collaborative learning in higher education.

在高等教育中,协作知识建构被用于支持学生团体的协作学习活动,学生通过同伴交流进行观点的交换、协商和反思。为了支持这一过程,人们设计了协作学习分析工具来收集和分析协作过程和绩效数据,目的是提供可操作的反馈并提高学习质量。然而,很少有工具能展示高等教育中学生如何在协作知识建构过程中发展自己的观点的机制和细节。为了填补这一空白,本研究提出了一种名为 "协作论证图"(CAM)的工具,它能创造性地将学生从个人、同伴和小组层面提出的不同类型观点可视化。该工具被进一步应用于中国高等教育研究生水平的在线协作写作活动课程中,旨在支持学生与同伴的知识建构。通过总结性和过程性学习分析方法,揭示了 CAM 对学生协作认知、过程和最终产品的影响。结果显示,大多数学生对 CAM 工具进行了实质性的使用,并对该工具报以积极的看法。进一步的检查验证了该工具对提高学生认知参与水平和最终合作写作产品质量的积极作用。这项研究为未来的CLA工具设计提供了实践意义,也为在高等教育中使用这类工具进行协作学习提供了教学意义。
