Children who grow up in disadvantaged households may receive fewer social benefits from their intelligence in adulthood than those raised in more advantaged environments, according to new research from the University of Bath.
Artificial Intelligence + Education: Theory and Practice in Application Development is a work in the field of AI applications in education that combines cutting-edge theory with practical value for frontline educational practice.
A new study published in ECNU Review of Education explores how AI-enhanced project-based learning can bridge educational gaps in resource-limited STEM classrooms across Africa. Researchers trained educators from five nations using low-cost tools like smartphone coding and speech-to-text-to-image AI. The findings demonstrate that these accessible technologies empower teachers to transition from rote instruction to competency-based learning, fostering inclusive innovation and providing a scalable model for sustainable education reform in developing contexts.
Easy-to-use adaptive immersive technologies incorporating augmented reality (AR) can motivate learning, social engagement and cognitive development in early childhood, according to new research.
The Flinders University study found that innovative artificial intelligence-driven AR smart glasses – combined with group work, iPad exercises and other classroom activities – resulted in high levels of engagement and cohesive classroom behaviour when used to teach a science topic in an Australian junior primary school.
People in low-performing organisations are more likely to look to others working elsewhere to access new knowledge and practices, a new study shows.
