Abstract

This study explored how Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools enhanced the adaptability of research methodologies in the field of education, particularly in environments characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA). With the rapid pace of change in educational settings, AI technologies such as automated data analysis, intelligent learning systems, and natural language processing (NLP) were increasingly used by educational researchers. This research focused on identifying how AI-driven tools helped educational researchers respond flexibly and effectively to challenges that arose in complex and uncertain contexts. The researchers recommended developing comprehensive training programs for educators to enhance AI literacy, establishing ethical guidelines for AI in education focusing on data privacy, algorithmic fairness, and transparency, and encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration among educators, technologists, and policymakers to create scalable, equitable, and sustainable AI-enhanced learning frameworks, ensuring that AI's potential was harnessed for the benefit of all learners.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) combined with artificial intelligence (AI) tools in enhancing pre-service teachers' critical thinking and self-efficacy inside an instructional design course.Methodology – A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was applied. The study involved 46 pre-service teachers engaged in an instructional design course at a private university in Indonesia, chosen using purposive sampling. Two instruments were used: a 25-item critical thinking questionnaire and a 10-item self-efficacy scale. Normality tests were conducted, followed by paired-sample t-tests to determine differences between pre-test and post-test scores.Findings – The findings showed a statistically significant improvement in both critical thinking (t = -116.464, p < .001) and self-efficacy (t = -56.328, p < .001) after the AI-supported PBL intervention. The normality assumptions were met, and the effect size was notably strong for both variables. These results suggest that incorporating AI technologies into project-based learning can significantly improve pre-service teachers' cognitive and emotional preparedness for future teaching practices.Contribution – This study contributes to the teacher education literature by providing empirical evidence for the integration of AI technologies in project-based learning, promoting critical thinking and self-efficacy. It offers practical insights for instructional designers and educators seeking to equip future teachers with the competencies required in technologically rich educational environments.

Abstract

Language assessment is a crucial component of effective language teaching. However, many pre-service teachers lack sufficient training in assessment practices, resulting in a gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. This study explores how pre-service teachers perceive the effectiveness of a project-based approach to designing and administering real-world language assessments and examines the challenges they face. Combining a closed questionnaire and semi-structured interviews, the study gathers quantitative and qualitative data from twenty-five pre-service teachers. The findings revealed that hands-on involvement in assessment design enhances teachers' understanding of key assessment principles, increases confidence, and bridges the gap between theory and practice. However, participants also faced challenges, particularly in ensuring the validity and reliability of their assessments. These challenges were manageable with the support provided in the course, indicating the value of structured guidance and expert collaboration in developing assessment literacy. The findings underscore the value of integrating theory with practice in teacher training, providing important insights for language assessment education. Future research could examine larger samples, long-term impacts of such training, and the role of digital tools in developing assessment literacy.

Abstract

This study aims to develop and evaluate digital storytelling-based listening materials that integrate the local culture of Riau Islands to enhance students' listening comprehension. The research employed a Design-Based Research (DBR) approach involving iterative cycles of design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The participants consisted of 35 university students, three lecturers, and three experts in material, language, and media validation. Data were collected through questionnaires, expert validation forms, and pre-test–post-test assessments. The design phase resulted in audiovisual storytelling materials featuring local cultural narratives and interactive comprehension activities. Expert validation indicated that the materials were highly feasible, with mean scores above 85% across material, language, and media aspects. The implementation results revealed a significant improvement in students' listening comprehension, as shown by an increase in the mean score from 61.31 (pre-test) to 80.89 (post-test) with a mean gain of 19.57 points (p .001). The findings suggest that digital storytelling enriched with local culture can serve as an effective and engaging alternative medium for listening instruction. This study contributes to the integration of culturally grounded digital pedagogy in language learning and supports the contextualization of English instruction in multicultural settings.
