Could AI help students feel better about learning maths?

Our latest research proposes a shift in how we think about AI in education. It focuses on designing systems that respond to students’ emotional and cognitive needs, not just delivering answers.

I had the opportunity to present our Fraser Mustard Centre work at the UNESCO Global Alliance on the Science of Learning meeting in Paris last week.

Good conversations about evidence, systems, and implementation.

And yes, the pastries delivered.

Does artificial intelligence help uni students learn smarter or just faster? New UniSA research shows that tertiary students’ learning habits are deeply connected to how they engage with generative artificial intelligence tools.

Does AI help uni students learn smarter or just faster? Our research shows that students' SRL skills play a role in whether students adopt AI as a meaningful learning aid or merely a quick solution for academic tasks. Led by my colleague A/Prof Negin Mirriahi www.unisa.edu.au/media-centre...

How far would you trust AI to make important decisions? A UniSA study shows that people are more likely to trust AI to make decisions when the decision is low risk, but more sceptical when the decision is high risk.

Here's a nice summary of our latest paper on trust in algorithmic decision-making: unisa.edu.au/media-centre...

Does smartphone use make people feel lonelier? Or does loneliness predict smartphone use?

We combined experience sampling data with smartphone usage data to examine the bidirectional association between well-being and smartphone use over time.
