Specifically, it compares two distinct feedback types powered by GAI: idea-oriented and task-oriented. The study involved 105 preservice teachers from a public university in Northwestern China. Participants were pre-assigned into two classes, each receiving different types of GAI-assisted feedback during IBDs. A collection of data, including discussion transcripts, survey responses, and IBD performance, was collected and analysed with statistical methods and epistemic network analysis. The results demonstrated that idea-oriented feedback significantly enhanced cognitive presence and led to higher engagement in the exploration of different ideas and opinions. However, this type of feedback also induced greater negative emotional responses. In contrast, task-oriented feedback promoted more social interaction and group cohesion, though it was less effective in fostering higher-order thinking. The findings suggest that GAI tools can provide meaningful support in online learning settings, but the type of feedback must be carefully aligned with the desired learning outcomes.

Students need a high level of self-regulated learning to adapt to this change. However, it is difficult for students to persist in self-regulation without guidance. Metacognitive support has a significant advantage in enhancing self-regulated learning, but fewer studies have explored the effects of its role in GenAI environments. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impacts of metacognitive support on college students' self-regulated learning and learning experiences in a GenAI environment. A quasi-experiment was designed in which 68 college students were divided into two groups. The experimental group (&lt;i&gt;N&lt;/i&gt; = 35) received explicit metacognitive support, while the control group (&lt;i&gt;N&lt;/i&gt; = 33) did not receive any metacognitive prompts. The experiment lasted 4 weeks. The study measured students' academic performance, self-regulated learning ability and learning experiences (including cognitive load and technology acceptance). The results indicate that in the GenAI environment, metacognitive support, while not producing significant between-group differences in achievement, enhances students' self-regulated learning abilities particularly in terms of task strategy and self-evaluation, as well as optimizing their learning experience. The study also found that students were at risk of decreasing their level of self-regulated learning if they lacked metacognitive support in the GenAI environment. The conclusion points out that GenAI supports learners to accomplish learning tasks while potentially reducing self-regulated learning effectiveness, and that metacognitive support is key to supporting effective regulation in learners' GenAI environments. This study provides an important theoretical and practical basis for how to better support learners' learning in GenAI environments.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt;Practitioner notes&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;What is already known about this topic\u0000\u0000 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;SRL is vital for effective learning in digital environments.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Generative AI tools, like ChatGPT, can enhance learning but require support.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Learners often struggle to apply SRL strategies without guidance.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 &lt;/ul&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;What this paper adds\u0000\u0000 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Metacognitive support improves SRL in Generative AI environments.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;It reduces cognitive load and increases the perceived usefulness of AI tools.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":48315,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Educational Technology","volume":"56 5","pages":"1842-1863"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144811293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the implementation of think-aloud protocols faces challenges such as task interference and limitations in completeness and authenticity of verbal reports. This study proposes a method called Cognitive Echo, which leverages large language models (LLMs) trained with simulated student experiences to enhance the completeness and authenticity of think-aloud verbalizations. LLMs have been demonstrated to simulate human-like behaviour more effectively by memorizing experiences. In this work, we introduce specific learner roles and train the LLMs to act as distinct learners. Our method involves integrating transaction data from learners' interactions with a tutoring system and the tutor's content to create interactive experiences between learners and teachers, thereby training the model to become simulated students with learning experiences. To investigate the effectiveness of this approach, we designed a test playground based on the retrospective think-aloud protocol and examined how LLM-trained simulated students improve cognitive process transparency and generalization of learning strategies. The study found that Cognitive Echo not only reveals what simulated students genuinely think about their learning experiences but also enables them to transfer their different cognitive strategies to new tasks. By training simulated students on real learning behaviour data to ensure their cognitive processes reflect authentic learner experiences, this approach will extend think-aloud protocols to more practice-oriented applications.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt;Practitioner notes&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;What is already known about this topic\u0000\u0000 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Think-aloud protocols are widely used in educational settings to explore students' cognitive processes by asking them to verbalize their thoughts while solving problems, but they are prone to issues like task interference and incomplete data reporting.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Existed applications of simulating student cognition in educational research are rigid and less adaptive to individual learner characteristics.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Artificial intelligences, especially large language models, have shown promise in educational contexts, particularly for simulating human-like behaviours.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 &lt;/ul&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;What this paper adds\u0000\u0000 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;\u0000 \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":48315,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Educational Technology","volume":"56 5","pages":"2019-2042"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144811128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using multimodal data, the research compares AI-generated feedback with feedback from human instructors, focusing on its impact on children's learning outcomes. Children engaged with a digital body-scale number line to learn addition and subtraction of positive and negative integers through embodied interaction. The study followed a between-group design, with one group receiving feedback from a human instructor and the other from GenAI. Eye-tracking data and system logs were used to evaluate student's information processing behaviour and cognitive load. The results revealed that while task-based performance did not differ significantly between conditions, the GenAI feedback condition demonstrated lower cognitive load and students show different visual information processing strategies among the two conditions. The findings provide empirical support for the potential of GenAI to complement traditional teaching by providing structured and adaptive feedback that supports efficient learning. The study underscores the importance of hybrid intelligence approaches that integrate human and AI feedback to enhance learning through synergistic feedback.

A long-standing pedagogical practice of learning-by-teaching is powered by a recent advancement of generative AI technologies, yielding our teachable agent called &lt;i&gt;ALTER-Math&lt;/i&gt;. This study chronicles one usability testing and three cycles of iterative design and implementation process of &lt;i&gt;ALTER-Math&lt;/i&gt;. The three empirical studies involved a total of 320 middle school students and six teachers in authentic classroom settings. The first study was exploratory, focusing on the qualitative feedback from the students and teachers through open-ended surveys, interviews and classroom observations. The second study yielded a medium-high (&lt;i&gt;M&lt;/i&gt; = 3.26) quantitative survey result on students' perceived engagement and usability on top of the qualitative findings. Finally, the final study included pre- and post-knowledge tests in a quasi-experimental study design as well as student and teacher interviews. The final study revealed a bigger significant knowledge improvement in students who used &lt;i&gt;ALTER-Math&lt;/i&gt; compared to the control group, suggesting a positive impact of AI-powered teachable agents on students' learning. The design implications learned from multiple iterations are discussed to inform the future design of AI-powered learning technologies.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;div&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt;Practitioner notes&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;What is already known about this topic\u0000\u0000 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Learning-by-teaching is a long-standing effective pedagogical strategy to enhance students' domain knowledge and feelings of responsibility in learning.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Various teachable agents have been developed and have demonstrated benefits in students' learning.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Generative AI offers the potential to provide naturalistic, contextualised and adaptive conversations.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 &lt;/ul&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;What this paper adds\u0000\u0000 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Develops a novel generative AI-powered teachable agent for middle school mathematics learning, called &lt;i&gt;ALTER-Math&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Reports the iterative design process involving empirical classroom implementations of &lt;i&gt;ALTER-Math&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Reveals a bigger significant improvement in the student's mathematical knowledge after using &lt;i&gt;ALTER-Math&lt;/i&gt;, compared to the control group.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 ","PeriodicalId":48315,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Educational Technology","volume":"56 5","pages":"2043-2077"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144811402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
