Abstract

In the rapidly evolving landscape of higher education, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools represents a pivotal paradigm shift, poised to redefine the very fabric of student engagement. Thus, as this integration becomes increasingly prevalent, it raises questions about its impact on student engagement. This prompted this study that sought to investigate AI tools' influence on student engagement in higher education. The study employed the descriptive survey design using a diverse sample of students from the University of Port Harcourt. A scale with validities and a high-reliability coefficient was used in obtaining data. Data were analyzed using mean, one-way, and two-way ANOVA. The result showed that the majority of the students were extremely engaged as a result of the influence of the use of AI tools, a significant difference existed in the engagement levels of students influenced by AI tools, and that neither gender nor age significantly affects engagement, suggesting a universal appeal of AI tools across demographics. The findings underscore the importance of inclusive AI integration in higher education, ensuring equitable and engaging learning experiences for students. These insights contribute to the ongoing discourse on leveraging AI tools to enhance student engagement in higher education settings

Abstract

This study adopted correlational research designed to explore teachers’ awareness and attitudes toward ergonomics practices in the classroom. The study was carried out at community secondary schools in Nigeria. The Population of the study is 152 teachers from the two schools. A sample of 76 teachers was used for the study. The simple random sampling technique was used for the study. The instrument used for the study is a structured questionnaire titled Exploring Teachers’ Awareness and Attitudes towards Ergonomics Practices in the Classroom (ETAAEPC) with 20 items. Face and content validity were used for the study. A reliability coefficient of 0.74 was obtained. Mean and Z-test were the statistical tools used for the study to compare two schools to observe differences in the teachers’ awareness and attitude. The study found that with the increasing use of technology in classrooms, ergonomic principles related to the use of computers, tablets, and other devices are becoming more relevant, and also teachers who are knowledgeable about digital ergonomics can better support students in using technology safely. Based on the findings, the researchers recommended that teacher training institutions and professional development bodies should develop and deliver targeted professional development workshops and training sessions.
