Abstract

Although studied for decades by the research community, artificial intelligence (AI) in education has recently sparked much public debate with the wide-spread popularity of systems such as ChatGPT and DALL-E. Existing literature offers a wealth of research on design, deploying and evaluating AI-driven systems in education. However, the challenges related to the growing influence of AI in the society, calls for revisiting research foundations of AI in education in order to inform decision-making in policy and guide future research. This special issue of Computers & Education: Artificial Intelligence brings 11 papers that explore the theme of empowering learners for the age of AI. The contributions of these papers can be broadly grouped into seven main themes: intersection between AI and humans that looks at the space of coordination; assessment that explores challenges and opportunities afforded by the use of AI in educational assessment; explainability in AI as a critical need for humans in education to understand and trust AI; design for learning that offers principles for designing AI-driven systems and educational opportunities; conceptual AI and learning exploring the need for the development of new theories of learning and their connections with existing theoretical foundations in education; accurate predictions and their role in future education; and applications of AI in classrooms and educational systems. The findings of these studies highlight pressing research and p…

  • There is a notable research gap in the study of human-AI collaboration dynamics in academic writing, with current research still nascent and primarily focused on the capabilities and immediate effects of generative AI tools.

    “Moreover, there is a notable research gap in the study of human-AI collaboration dynamics in academic writing.”

  • GenAI's statistical genesis promotes biases and other limitations, including the risk of factual inaccuracies, hallucinations, cultural colonisation, and a tendency towards 'expected' ideas and expressions.

    “However, it is also well recognised that GenAI's statistical genesis promotes biases and other limitations, including the risk of factual inaccuracies, hallucinations, cultural colonisation, and a tendency towards 'expected' ideas and expressions (Creely and Henderson 2025;Gašević, Siemens & Sadiq, 2023).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
