Abstract

This paper explains the challenges of incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in teaching in terms of educational resources, personalized learning, motivation. A qualitative library-research design was utilized to study researches published about Artificial Intelligence (AI) from 2018-2025. The challenges of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration into educational resources have a significant impact on the teaching practices. Although Artificial Intelligence (AI) provides a positive impact on educational resources such as it can personalize learning and speed up content creation, its implementation must be carefully managed to avoid compromising the human element of education. While AI can improve learning and help keep students motivated, its impact is sometimes reduced by misuse and the difficulty of properly integrating it into teaching. Some students rely too much on AI for assignments, raising concerns about academic honesty. Educators such as teachers and professors must monitor AI-generated content to ensure it meets the academic standards and promotes student engagement.

Abstract

In the evolving landscape of primary computing education, accurately assessing students’ computational thinking (CT) remains a pedagogical challenge due to the dynamic nature of student learning and the creative expression embedded in Scratch programming. This study introduces AutoCT Analyst, an AI-powered tool designed to automate and personalize CT assessment by analyzing Scratch projects based on Brennan and Resnick’s CT framework. A total of 60 student-created Scratch artifacts were analyzed using AutoCT Analyst, which combines rule-based heuristics, decision-tree classification, and GPT-enhanced feedback. The tool identified four learner typologies—Novice Explorers, Linear Designers, Modular Thinkers, and Algorithmic Architects—each with specific scaffolding needs. Validation through expert raters demonstrated high reliability (Cohen’s κ = 0.82) and a strong correlation (r = 0.86) between human and AI-generated scores. Findings underscore the tool’s potential for large-scale, formative assessment and its capacity to inform differentiated instruction. The study also addresses the limitations of rigid typologies and highlights the necessity of human-AI hybrid feedback loops to balance creativity and structure in CT assessment. The commercial viability of AutoCT Analyst lies in its adaptability across classroom contexts and its ability to scale teacher feedback efficiently. Future research should explore longitudinal impacts and contextual customization across diverse educational ecosystems.

Abstract

This study explores the use of generative AI, specifically ChatGPT, as a tool to facilitate cognitive conflict during quantum physics learning in an Indonesian high school classroom. Employing an exploratory case study design, the research involved 200 12th-grade students from a public secondary school. A set of conceptual questions rooted in quantum phenomena (e.g., time travel, superposition) were designed to trigger students’ misconceptions and stimulate metacognitive reflection. Students explored these questions using ChatGPT before engaging in classroom discussion and reflection. While the approach successfully sparked curiosity and deep engagement, analysis revealed that a majority of students relied entirely on AI-generated responses, even for prompts requiring personal opinion. The triangulation analysis combined heuristic linguistic features, response similarity checks, and follow up interview to determine whether student responses were likely generated by AI or written personally and identified key themes of wonder, cognitive ambiguity, and culutural connection in student reflections. Overall, the study highlights both the opportunities and challenges of integrating generative AI into science education.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of Distance Learning (PJJ) at Indonesian Schools Abroad (SILN) in Singapore using the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The research identifies several challenges, including limited teacher-student ratios, technological barriers, and variations in student motivation. However, digital platforms such as Google Classroom and Zoom are considered effective in supporting learning, though improvements are needed in the quality of materials, delivery methods, and teacher feedback frequency. Findings indicate that most students benefit from the flexibility of time and technology access provided by PJJ. Nonetheless, challenges such as difficulty in maintaining focus during online learning, perceived heavy workloads, and mismatches between teaching materials and teachers' backgrounds persist. To optimize distance learning, teacher training, diversified teaching methods, improved teacher-student interaction, periodic evaluations, and active parental involvement are recommended. This study concludes that structured collaboration between educational institutions, parental support, and regular system improvements can enhance the quality of distance learning, provide better learning experiences, and meet students' holistic needs.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the implementation of gamification-based mobile learning as a learning medium in elementary schools. The method used is a literature study by analyzing various previous studies related to the concept, benefits, and challenges of implementing this technology-based learning media. The results of the study indicate that gamification-based mobile learning can increase students' learning motivation, develop high-level thinking skills, and provide a flexible and inclusive learning environment. This learning media is designed through stages that include making flowcharts, storyboards, interface development, and product evaluation. Gamification, as a key element, utilizes features such as points, levels, and badges to create an interactive and engaging learning experience. Although it offers various advantages, such as high accessibility and personalization of teaching materials, its implementation requires adequate infrastructure support and curriculum adaptation. With the right design, gamification-based mobile learning can be an innovative solution to improve the quality of learning in elementary schools.

Abstract

This article critically analyzes the digital transformation of education in Japan through the lens of educational sociology. Using literature-based qualitative analysis, the study focuses on the GIGA School Program as a national policy intended to enhance equity through digital infrastructure. Despite universal device distribution and high-speed internet development, the study reveals significant disparities in implementation, especially concerning teacher readiness, household digital literacy, and regional differences. The findings indicate that digital education tends to reinforce social stratification through unequal access to cultural capital, which is consistent with Bourdieu's theory of symbolic violence. Moreover, the growing influence of EdTech companies has led to the marketization of learning, shifting students into passive consumers of standardized content. This phenomenon also erodes the humanistic and dialogical dimensions of education emphasized by thinkers such as Freire and Durkheim. The article concludes that technological reform must be grounded in social equity and educational philosophy to ensure just and meaningful learning. Recommendations include reforming teacher training, strengthening local educational support, and safeguarding education from commercial domination. Keywords:digital education, cultural capital, educational inequality, symbolic violence, EdTech
