These changes include the integration of ICT applications into the academic culture. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of AI in supporting students who use a second language in higher education. This evaluation is conducted through a case study focusing on the course ‘Approaches to Teaching Hebrew as a Second Language’, designed for Arab-Bedouin female students in Israel. The study examines the impact of AI tools on the students' written and oral expression in Hebrew, their second language. Employing the method of self-reflection, a form of action research, the study centres on the experiences of teachers and teacher trainees. The analysis draws on three data sources: written assignments submitted by the students, oral presentations of academic articles delivered in Hebrew, and reflective insights provided by the students at the end of the course. The findings reveal that in both contexts–written and oral expression–the use of AI proved effective. AI tools enhanced the quality of the students' written projects, which focused on research topics, and improved their oral presentation skills.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47585,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Education","volume":"61 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2026-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147564398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these students frequently encounter distinct challenges stemming from their cultural backgrounds, language proficiency, and prior educational experiences. This study focuses on the achievement gap between ethnic minority and non-minority students within the Chinese higher education system. By analysing data from 19,637 undergraduates across 37 universities, this study used the Chinese version of the College Student Experiences Questionnaire to examine the influence of college environment on student learning gains and to determine whether the mediating effects of academic and social activities varied across ethnic groups. The structural equation modelling results suggested that: (1) a positive association existed between college environment and learning gains for both ethnic minority and non-minority students; (2) both academic and social activities partially mediated this relationship; and (3) the impact of social activities on learning gains was significantly less pronounced for ethnic minority students, thereby revealing a critical disparity. This study underscores the important role of college environment in fostering student learning and emphasises the necessity of tailored support mechanisms designed to address the unique challenges experienced by ethnic minority students.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47585,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Education","volume":"61 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2026-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147564399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
