Abstract
Background
The BOPPPS instructional model (Bridge-in, Objective, Pre-assessment, Participatory Learning, Post-assessment, Summary) is widely used in higher education to promote structured and student-centred learning. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI), educators are increasingly exploring how AI technologies can support teaching and learning within this framework. However, existing research on AI-integrated BOPPPS instruction remains scattered, and a systematic synthesis of current evidence is still lacking.
Objectives
This study aims to systematically review research on the integration of AI technologies into the BOPPPS instructional model in higher education and examine their effects on teaching and learning outcomes.
Methods
A systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Multiple academic databases were searched for empirical studies published between 2015 and 2025, and studies were screened using predefined inclusion criteria. Forty-six eligible studies were included and analysed to identify the types of AI technologies used, their application across different BOPPPS stages, and their reported educational impacts.
Results and Conclusions
The review shows a growing body of research, particularly after 2018, integrating technologies such as intelligent tutoring systems, machine learning, virtual and augmented reality, and generative AI into BOPPPS-based teaching. These technologies were reported to support personalised learning, increase student engagement, and facilitate data-informed instruction, leading to improved academic performance, enhanced higher-order thinking skills, and stronger learning motivation. Nevertheless, many studies remain small-scale and quasi-experimental, and challenges related to data privacy, teacher readiness, and equitable access persist. Future research should prioritise large-scale and theory-driven studies to strengthen the evidence base and support effective implementation.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Computer Assisted Learning is an international peer-reviewed journal which covers the whole range of uses of information and communication technology to support learning and knowledge exchange. It aims to provide a medium for communication among researchers as well as a channel linking researchers, practitioners, and policy makers. JCAL is also a rich source of material for master and PhD students in areas such as educational psychology, the learning sciences, instructional technology, instructional design, collaborative learning, intelligent learning systems, learning analytics, open, distance and networked learning, and educational evaluation and assessment. This is the case for formal (e.g., schools), non-formal (e.g., workplace learning) and informal learning (e.g., museums and libraries) situations and environments. Volumes often include one Special Issue which these provides readers with a broad and in-depth perspective on a specific topic. First published in 1985, JCAL continues to have the aim of making the outcomes of contemporary research and experience accessible. During this period there have been major technological advances offering new opportunities and approaches in the use of a wide range of technologies to support learning and knowledge transfer more generally. There is currently much emphasis on the use of network functionality and the challenges its appropriate uses pose to teachers/tutors working with students locally and at a distance. JCAL welcomes: -Empirical reports, single studies or programmatic series of studies on the use of computers and information technologies in learning and assessment -Critical and original meta-reviews of literature on the use of computers for learning -Empirical studies on the design and development of innovative technology-based systems for learning -Conceptual articles on issues relating to the Aims and Scope
