Learning with Generative Artificial Intelligence: What Empirical Studies Tell Us

by Yizhou Fan (Editor)

Overview

This book delves into the core of education’s digital transformation, presenting a thorough and empirical examination of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI)’s impact beyond the theoretical and fragmented insights prevalent in current discourse.

Drawing from peer-reviewed and extensive empirical studies, the contributors aim to unveil the multifaceted effects of GenAI (particularly ChatGPT) on learning. They navigate through topics of interaction, assessment, emotion, effect and efficiency, meta-cognition, and ethics, offering a comprehensive exploration of GenAI’s educational implications. This book presents a closed loop of learning theory, multimodal data, and learning analytics technology. Furthermore, this book builds and proposes core conceptual models for future learning and identifies potential research directions.

This book will serve as a foundational reference for educators seeking innovative learning and teaching methods and for researchers and technologists who seek to push the boundaries of educational technology and related areas.
