Artificial Intelligence and E-Learning

The Edtech sector has grown with the emergence of new ventures at all levels of education and training. A number of experiments are carried out in this domain across the globe. Artificial intelligence is instrumental in helping institutions to engage students, provide personalised learning, and stay profitable. The chapter provides information about prevalent models being used for instruction design. It also includes examples of best practices of using technology in learning across the globe. Case studies of Yuanfudao (China), Embibe (India), Ruangguru (Indonesia), Tonies (Germany), Virti (UK), Examity (USA), and Packback (USA) are part of this chapter.

Media Evaluasi Pembelajaran Berbasis Kahoot! Untuk Guru SD di Kabupaten Tanah Bumbu

Permasalahan yang dialami guru-guru di sekolah mitra yaitu kurangnya pengetahuan terhadap teknologi dalam pembelajaran yang dapat membantu pekerjaan guru menjadi lebih mudah dan menarik. Hal ini menjadi catatan untuk guru agar bisa membuat pembelajaran yang menarik dan lebih kreatif. Pada pembelajaran maupun latihan evaluasi guru bisa memberikan pembelajaran yang menarik dan kreatif dengan menggunakan aplikasi. Aplikasi yang memungkinkan untuk guru salah satunya adalah Aplikasi Kahoot!. Penggunaan aplikasi Kahoot! yang memanfaatkan teknologi dirasa akan lebih menarik dan efisien dibandingkan peserta didik harus menuliskan jawabannya dikertas. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pengetahuan tentang Aplikasi Kahoot! sebagai media evaluasi yang dapat digunakan oleh guru-guru SD di Kabupaten Tanah Bumbu dalam pembelajaran. Pelatihan dilaksanakan pada hari Rabu, 23 Juni 2021 secara tatap muka dengan mematuhi protokol kesehatan dihadiri oleh 29 orang guru SD di Kabupaten Tanah Bumbu. Metode yang digunakan yaitu metode ceramah, metode demonstrasi, diskusi dan tanya jawab. Hasil kegiatan yang telah dilaksanakan untuk guru-guru SD di Kabupaten Tanah Bumbu yaitu pelatihan dapat memberikan manfaat, pemahaman dan kemampuan guru dalam membuat media evalusi menggunakan aplikasi Kahoot! melalui keterlibatan secara aktif dan rata-rata peserta memberikan respon positif terhadap pelatihan yang diberikan.The problem experienced by teachers in partner schools is the lack of knowledge of technology in learning that can help teachers' work become more accessible and more interesting. This is a record for teachers to be able to make learning exciting and more creative. In learning and evaluation exercises, teachers can provide interesting and creative learning by using applications. The application that allows for teachers of them is the Kahoot! Application. Kahoot Applications that utilize technology are felt to be more attractive and efficient than learners must write the answers on the thread. This devotional activity aims to provide knowledge about Kahoot Application as an evaluation medium that elementary teachers can use in Tanah Bumbu Regency in learning. On Wednesday, June 23, 2021, the training was face-to-face by complying with health protocols attended by 29 elementary school teachers in Tanah Bumbu Regency. The methods used are lecture methods, demonstration methods, discussions and Q&A. The results of activities that have been carried out for elementary school teachers in Tanah Bumbu Regency, namely training, can provide benefits, understanding and ability of teachers in making evalusion media using kahoot application through active involvement and the average participant gives a positive response to the training provided.

Co-word analysis and academic performance from the Australasian Journal of Educational Technology in Web of Science

Since its inception in 1985, the Australasian Journal of Educational Technology (AJET) has been dedicated to the diffusion of studies on the integration of technology in higher education. Its track record in this field has placed it in the first quartile of the Scimago Journal & Country Rank. The objective of the study was to reveal to the scientific community the journey and evolution that this journal has had throughout its existence in Web of Science. A bibliometric methodology was used, supported by a scientific mapping from a unit of analysis of 798 documents. For this reason, a co-word analysis can be a fundamental tool for understanding the characteristics of their production and their impact on the scientific community. There is an evident progressive evolution of the studies published in the Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, with a first phase focused on the design and implementation of educational technology in learning environments, a second phase focused on the enrichment of technology and its acceptance within the processes of teaching and learning, and finally a stage focused on student and teacher perceptions of the implementation of technology in the educational context. Implications for practice or policy: We have established a contextual framework to show researchers current trends in educational technology and delineate future lines of research. Those interested in this subject will have a set of bibliometric indicators to delve into the field of educational technology. Higher education teachers and students will discover the evolution of the use of technology in learning spaces.

Because the sky is the limit: Interpretive phenomenological analysis of millennial elementary school teachers using digital technology in the classroom

<div><p>The population of millennials who work as elementary school teachers is currently increasing because it replaces the previous generation who will retire. This generation grows surrounded by technology and educates technology savvy too. This study aims to explore the experience of millennial teacher related to the use of technology in learning in primary schools. Two research questions were proposed, namely: 1) How did millennial teacher experience their role as teacher for elementary school students? ; 2) What is the experience of millennial teacher when using technology in learning for students in elementary schools. This study uses a qualitative method with the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) approach. Semi-structured interviews with open-ended questions were conducted on 6 elementary school teacher. The analysis showed four emergent themes, namely: (1) Interpersonal experience; (2) Technology as a learning tool; (3) Barriers to integrating technology in learning; (4) Strategy to overcome obstacles. Collaborative, and collegial relationships will help the subject to make an active contribution at work. Familiarity with technology helps millennial teachers in innovating learning and interacting with students.</p></div>

ANALYSIS OF MATHEMATICAL WRITING ERRORS RELATED TO THE ANGLE OF TRIGONOMETRI FUNCTIONS

Mathematical writing errors are often made by students, especially when writing mathematical expressions on the angle of trigonometric functions. One of the causes of this error is that students do not pay close attention to the difference between radians and degrees when writing questions or writing answers. These mathematical writing errors were made mainly by students who were oriented towards the result of the answer to a question, without paying attention to good and correct writing rules. One form of writing errors in mathematical expressions of trigonometric functions is writing y = sin (x + 45), which is considered the same as writing y = sin (x + 45o). If they are asked to compare the graphical form of the function of the two mathematical expressions in the same image, the writing error will be recognized and seen. Counterexamples and technology in learning mathematics can help students understand and correct errors in writing mathematical expressions of trigonometric functions.
