Yesterday’s apps, today’s ChatGPT, and tomorrow’s extended reality applications are proof of continuous innovation in the Information Technology (IT) sector. During the 2020 pandemic, the world’s education system shifted to online teaching. By then, Artificial Intelligence (AI) had already invested in introducing pedagogical agents (PAs) in teaching through multimedia learning. There are multiple attributable studies about human-comparable on-screen agents that support teaching and improve learning performance with their human characteristics like bodily moments, spoken narration, emotional expression, and gestures. Besides, AI provided pedagogical agents with an exuberant quality of surveilling students during classes. Foreign or second language teachers typically observe emotionality in the classrooms to motivate, encourage, and provide feedback. Thus, the current study aims to investigate and compare the characteristic features of pedagogical agents with those of on-screen teachers. It will explore to what extent the features stimulate the learning process in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) / English as a second language (ESL) learning. Additionally, the present study attempts to cover the classification of emotionality and agents’ contextual appearance in teaching English classes. The study will compare the pedagogical agents’ characteristics with human screen teachers’ characteristics using one-tailed, right-tailed F-test variance. The study proves that pedagogical agents are considered equal partners with on-screen teachers based on the available characteristics. Additionally, the study signals the need for future teachers to acquire technical skills.","PeriodicalId":184797,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The International Conference on Advanced Research in Teaching and Education","volume":"133 48","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141810942","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used a quantitative research method through a survey questionnaire that teachers filled out online. Hypotheses were tested with the Kruskal-Wallis’s test to determine differences between groups of teachers. The results showed that teachers, regardless of the university they graduated from and the average number of students in the class, define the same challenges that students and teachers face when solving problems, and that they try to implement problem solving with all students in the class, not only with the gifted. Teachers report that problem-solving teaching takes a lot of time and preparation, and that problem-solving take time during class. Such teaching itself is demanding in preparation. For the challenges faced by students, teachers state students' quick withdrawal, lack of self-confidence, and lack of prior knowledge and problem-solving skills. It is difficult for teachers to achieve the outcomes by solving problems in mathematics classes, but they are aware that solving problems gives students better skills. It is important to understand the impact of teacher stress and reduce the stressors that teachers face when solving problems in class, because teacher stress affects student success in problem solving, which is related to student success in mathematics.","PeriodicalId":184797,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The International Conference on Advanced Research in Teaching and Education","volume":"116 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141362827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, a definition of AI in the context of the DH is given first. Areas of the application of AI topics in European DH degree programme descriptions (Master and Bachelor) are scanned to show whether and how the topic of AI is reflected in course descriptions for prospective students with a focus on Digital Humanities. In addition to focusing the term AI, descriptions are analysed for word frequencies and existing correlations. The results show that AI is not explicitly included as a subject of study in DH course descriptions. Nevertheless, central related themes and methods are highlighted therein. Areas such as languages, literature, cultural studies, and history as well as creative and production areas that have references to digital processes and semi- and fully automated computer-aided methods are mentioned. Overall, the teaching of effective digitally supported and collaborative working methods is an essential part of the degree programs (or is aimed at in the degree program descriptions and thus in the respective degree programs), which addresses core competencies of the learners in the future working world. AI topics are finally categorised and converted into a compact overview with areas of application and two possible exemplary implementation scenarios.","PeriodicalId":184797,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The International Conference on Advanced Research in Teaching and Education","volume":" 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141368477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its main concepts stem from significant conclusions coming from other theories related to pedagogical and philosophical school practice. The key point is that knowledge is the desired learning outcome that can be accomplished through active learning participation which is closely related to construct. Also, some basic ideas of constructivism rely on idea-based interactions and ideas produced by learners. Certain aspects of the above-mentioned theory in learning and teaching seem to be very helpful for learners to develop their ideas and achieve learning outcomes. The basic aim of this paper is to examine the influence of Constructivism on adult education by utilising Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge Framework’s (TPACK) dimensions in learning and teaching everyday practice. A mixed method analysis was conducted which contains a theoretical analysis, and experimentation through a quiz game. Our experimental approach through the quiz game was to study Newtonian physics and specifically the Law of Gravitation and the 2nd Law of Motion, finding that the mass terms cancel, and ending up making a prediction that all objects fall at the same rate. The experiment would then involve verifying the prediction and explaining any deviations from the prediction in terms of the intuitive idea of air resistance. The findings showed that students after answering the quizzes of the quiz game, were able to discuss their results using logical argument as opposed to when they did the experiment before the theory and their discussion was little more than guesswork. Thus, we could see how students performed on each question and use that information to figure out what needs to be readdressed or retaught.","PeriodicalId":184797,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The International Conference on Advanced Research in Teaching and Education","volume":" 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140996770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Delhi, its implementation started in late 2015. This paper analysis the results of a survey conducted by the authors in May 2016 on the training received by the employees who deliver online Government to Citizen (G2C) services in Delhi under e-District Delhi Project. The employees were attached to District Magistrate office in each of the 6 selected districts. District Magistrate is the administrative head of a district in Delhi. The vocational skills of employees were studied in detail through the survey. The important outcome derived from results is that the training provided was inadequate for the employees. As many as 75% reported not receiving proper training and 25% received no training at all. Their vocational skills were inadequate to manage day-to-day job responsibilities in the newly adopted online workflow for providing important citizen services. This paper discusses in details the various parameters and their impact on the dependent variable (output of each employee per day) through empirical analysis and hypothesis testing. An interesting outcome of this research is that communication skills training was demanded by employees at all hierarchy levels, 41% of senior professionals also demanded more training on communication skills.","PeriodicalId":184797,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The International Conference on Advanced Research in Teaching and Education","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131346598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this we did a needs analysis to students of the higher education level and further on we analysed the data that we collected in order to understand how to increase the student’s ability to communicate in a foreign language, more specifically in English. The methodology used, needs analysis, allowed us to assess the students’ necessities in this area of expertise and, later on, to implement new strategies and use new materials in the classroom so their needs might be fulfilled and our goals might be achieved. This paper is divided into four parts, in the first one we present the theoretical framework, in the second one we focused on the methodology used, which was a needs analysis, in the third we show the results and in the fourth one we present the main conclusions of this study and its limitations.

In contrast to previous attempts at turning the students attending this course from their notorious inertia, this strategy finally accomplished a significant unfolding of the students’ immediate interest and thence helped them attain a richer learning experience. The recommendations by the developers of Team-Based Learning served as basis for this implementation, which is laid out in protocol format for the present article and illustrated with examples from the themes proposed. The results from a survey on this implementation of Team-Based Learning, made available to the students, gave an important feedback for discussion of the strengths and weaknesses in the experience so far. Although this implementation arguably fulfils most of the core elements of the recommended Team-Based Learning procedure, considerations are made on the possible need to upgrade to a full implementation of Team-Based Learning in this course.","PeriodicalId":184797,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The International Conference on Advanced Research in Teaching and Education","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123490378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
