Abstract

Hybrid classrooms are designed to support collaborative learning experiences. This concept encourages students to actively engage within learning communities. This study investigates the applicability of hybrid classrooms in a university. Researchers utilized a CoI questionnaire adapted from Swan et al., (2008). It contains 36 items, all measured on a 4-point Likert scale. The questionnaires measure the three components of the CoI model. The participants consisted of accounting students who enrolled in Taxation courses in 2023, totaling 140 individuals. This result finds that students have effective social interaction, active engagement, and critical inquiry in the hybrid classroom. Students expressed a positive sentiment towards the hybrid classroom. The hybrid classroom undeniably has great potential for a flexible learning model for both students and educators in the future. While this study offers valuable insights into the perceptions of students regarding the hybrid classroom, the limitations, lack of demographic data, reliance on self-report measures, and absence of qualitative data, must be acknowledged when interpreting the findings.

Abstract

This study aimed at assessing the use of artificial intelligence in academic writing by identifying ethical and unethical practices in the use of the technology. Ethics in academic writing has to do with principles and practices which academics have to apply and use to promote honesty and integrity in preparation and dissemination of their scholarly works. The study used qualitative research that uses in-depth interviews to collect data from academicians working in three higher learning institutions in Tanzania. A total of 17 academicians were sampled with the use of purposive sampling technique. A sample size of 17 was determined by the saturation principle.  Thematic analysis was used to analyze collected data. The study identified seven ethical practices which are brainstorming research ideas, identifying relevant models/frameworks/theories, reading concepts generated by AI, editing and proofreading, data analysis and translation. Three unethical practices were identified which include not acknowledging the use of AI, overreliance on AI and using AI to fabricate data. The line between ethical and unethical practices is drawn by considering the extent to which AI assisted a researcher in writing academic documents. This extent may be determined by examining whether what AI did in a particular academic work could have been done by asking for assistance from a natural person and whether what AI did could have been done by any other technology which is acceptable in academic writing. The study recommends various measures to be undertaken to avoid malpractices in academic writing.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of MindMeister on 4C skills in the Indonesian language subject in grade 6 elementary school in Surabaya. A combined research method was used, involving data collection carried out through in-depth interviews with students, observation, taking pre-test and post-test scores 3 times each in the control class and experimental class. Quantitative results showed no significant effect of using MindMeister on 4C skills (significance values of 0,100 > 0,05). However, the qualitative result based on the student's perspective gained through interviews and observations is that most students can apply 4C skills while using MindMeister. In conclusion, it is proposed that MindMeister may influence 4C skill levels in the Indonesian subject in this particular context. It is hoped that these findings contribute to the use of MindMeister in other subjects in any grade of elementary school in Indonesia.

Abstract

This paper investigates the patronage and use of library resources among Generation Z undergraduates in Nigerian universities. With the increasing influence of digital technologies, academic libraries face challenges in maintaining relevance for Gen Z students, who exhibit a strong preference for digital platforms and self-directed learning. The study aimed to determine the extent of library patronage, identify frequently used library resources, analyze factors influencing library use, explore the role of digital alternatives, and suggest strategies to enhance library engagement. A cross-sectional descriptive survey was employed, targeting undergraduates from five Nigerian universities. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire based on a four-point Likert scale, and responses from 219 students were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Findings revealed low levels of library patronage, with students favoring digital resources, social media, and e-learning platforms over traditional library services. No single library resource was frequently utilized, with institutional repositories and thesis collections being the most accessed. Key factors influencing non-use included limited accessibility, inadequate ICT infrastructure, and inconvenient library hours. Students strongly advocated for digital transformation, recommending social media integration, AI-driven assistance, and mobile-friendly library services. The study concludes that academic libraries must modernize their services to align with Gen Z’s digital preferences. Recommendations include expanding digital resources, improving ICT infrastructure, integrating social media, and personalizing library services to enhance user engagement and relevance.

Abstract

Students with Down syndrome respond positively to adaptive AI learning systems, but existing models struggle to effectively accommodate their unique challenges in working memory and attention control. These limitations stem from rigid clustering methods, which fail to personalize learning pathways according to the individual cognitive needs of students. This paper proposes a theoretical framework integrating Neutrosophic C-Means Clustering (NCM) into adaptive AI for special education. Grounded in cognitive theories on Down syndrome, the framework applies neutrosophic logic to refine membership functions truth, indeterminacy, and falsity and categorizes errors into conceptual, procedural, and attentional clusters. Rather than treating engagement as a fixed metric, this framework reinterprets indeterminacy as a dynamic state, allowing AI systems to adapt to variations in learner responsiveness and facilitate smoother human-AI interaction. While this remains a conceptual model, it sets the stage for future AI-assisted personalized learning systems, enabling educators and AI designers to collaborate in creating more flexible, responsive, and inclusive learning technologies. Furthermore, this paper highlights key ethical concerns, including bias risks in AI-driven education and maintaining human oversight to ensure fairness and inclusivity in AI-assisted learning environments.
