This study investigates teachers design behaviors and cognitive underpinnings when designing multi-agent instructional workflows. Analyzing behavioral logs (N=61), cluster and Markov analyses identified three archetypes: Systematic…
This study explores how graduate students in an urban planning program transitioned from passive users of generative AI to active creators of custom GPT-based knowledge tools. Drawing on Self-Determination Theory (SDT), which emphasizes the…
Digital agents are considered a general-purpose technology. They spread quickly in private and organizational contexts, including education. Yet, research lacks a conceptual framing to describe interaction with such agents in a holistic…
This study involves a theory-based teacher professional development model that was created to address two problems. First, dominant modes of science teacher professional development have been inadequate in helping teachers create learning…
Recent years have seen a surge in applications and technologies aimed at motivating users to achieve personal goals and improve their wellbeing. However, these often fail to promote long-term behaviour change, and sometimes even backfire.…
As AI tutors enter classrooms at unprecedented speed, their deployment increasingly outpaces our grasp of the psychological and social consequences of such technology. Yet decades of research in automation psychology, human factors, and…
Teachable Agent (TA) is a special type of pedagogical agent which instantiates the educational theory of Learning by Teaching. Soon after its emergence, research of TA becomes an active field, as it can solve the over scaffolded problem in…
Instructors play a pivotal role in integrating AI into education, yet their adoption of AI-powered tools remains inconsistent. Despite this, limited research explores how to design AI tools that support broader instructor adoption. This…
Recent advances in autonomous LLM agents demonstrate their ability to improve performance through iterative interaction with the environment. We define this paradigm as Test-Time Improvement (TTI). However, the mechanisms under how and why…
Generative AI is increasingly embedded in collaborative learning, yet little is known about how AI personas shape learner agency when AI teammates are present but not disclosed. This mechanism study examines how supportive and contrarian AI…
As generative AI (Gen-AI) tools become more prevalent in education, there is a growing need to understand how educators, not just students, can actively shape their design and use. This study investigates how two instructors integrated four…
The emergence of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has reshaped higher education, presenting both opportunities and ethical-pedagogical challenges. This article presents an empirical case study on the complete cycle (design,…
Multi-agent AI systems, which simulate diverse instructional roles such as teachers and peers, offer new possibilities for personalized and interactive learning. Yet, student-AI interaction patterns and their pedagogical implications remain…
This mixed-methods study examined computational thinking (CT) development among 93 pre-high school students in a five-day AI agent creation workshop using CocoFlow, a no-code platform. Integrating pre-post assessments, behavioral logs, and…
This study reports findings from a cross-sectional survey (n = 72) of higher education practitioners examining beliefs, behaviors, and institutional conditions related to artificial intelligence (AI) integration in teaching and learning.…
Our research is part of a technological research program in adult education conducted in reference to the "course of action" program. Using the activity-sign hypothesis of this programme, training situations are thought as opportunities to…
Background: Large language models are typically evaluated as models, benchmarks, or short conversational episodes. Less is known about what happens when an agent is embedded persistently in a real academic research environment with durable…
AI coding agents can resolve real-world software issues, yet they frequently introduce regressions -- breaking tests that previously passed. Current benchmarks focus almost exclusively on resolution rate, leaving regression behavior…
This pilot study traces students' reflections on the use of AI in a 13-week foundational design course enrolling over 500 first-year engineering and architecture students at the Singapore University of Technology and Design. The course was…
This study examines the psychological mechanisms underlying Chinese K-12 teachers' discontinuance intention toward generative AI. Drawing on the Cognition-Affect-Conation framework, the study investigates how cognitive evaluations of…
