Artificial Intelligence in Japan's Language Learning Classrooms brings together leading researchers and practitioners to explore how generative AI is reshaping language education in Japan. Moving beyond initial enthusiasm and concern, the volume offers a nuanced and critical examination of AI's role in second language acquisition, classroom practice, and institutional policy. The contributors highlight a wide range of perspectives, from practical applications such as AI-assisted f...

Intelligence is at the heart of what makes us human, but the methods we use for identifying, talking about and valuing human intelligence are impoverished. We invest artificial intelligence (AI) with qualities it does not have and, in so doing, risk losing the capacity for education to pass on the emotional, collaborative, sensory and self-effective aspects of human intelligence that define us. To address this, Rosemary Luckin - leading expert in the application of AI in education - propos...

This volume addresses the gap in knowledge around generative AI and its applications in education. It draws on the recent history of technological innovation and digital pedagogies, locating generative AI in the contemporary discourse around education futures. It argues that a new hybrid model of education is emerging, requiring educational institutions to embed generative AI into course and programme design, delivery and assessment. It also proposes a shift from a focus on learning as out...

Appreciative Inquiry: Research for Change is the first book dedicated to exploring appreciative inquiry (AI) as an approach to change-focused research. More than ever, students and researchers seek to do more than report on what they see following a research study or project, but rather engage the research environment (participants, stakeholders) to promote change. In other words, their studies are as much research-based as they are meant to initiate or sustain social or o...

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is transforming education, and language classrooms are no exception. This groundbreaking volume brings together international scholars and practitioners to examine how AI is reshaping the teaching and learning of additional languages. Edited by Louise Ohashi, Mary Hillis, and Robert Dykes, Artificial Intelligence in Our Language Learning Classrooms offers both theoretical perspectives and practical applications for educators navigating th...

Essays on the challenges and risks of designing algorithms and platforms for children, with an emphasis on algorithmic justice, learning, and equity.One in three Internet users worldwide is a child, and what children see and experience online is increasingly shaped by algorithms. Though children’s rights and protections are at the center of debates on digital privacy, safety, and Internet governance, the dominant online platforms have not been constructed with the ...

This book is a concise introduction to emerging concepts and ideas found at the intersection of contemporary behavioural science and artificial intelligence. The book explores how these disciplines interact, change, and adapt to one another and what the implications of such an interaction are for practice and society.AI for Behavioural Science book begins by exploring the field of machine behaviour, which advocates using behavioural science to investigate artificial intelligence. T...

Learning Theory and Online Technologies offers a powerful overview of the current state of online learning, the foundations of its historical roots and growth, and a framework for distinguishing between the major approaches to online learning. It addresses pedagogy (how to design an effective online environment for learning), evaluation (how to know that students are learning), and history (how past research can guide successful online teaching and learning outcomes).An id...
