Integrating Artificial Intelligence into Collaborative Teaching Strategies: A Case Study in Smart Classrooms
Get PDFThe purpose of this study is to explore multiple possibilities for applying collaborative learning methodologies in smart classrooms through the use of artificial intelligence. AI technologies allow educators to increase student interest, promote teamwork, and individualize learning for each learner. In this case study, the focus will be placed on AI technologies, including virtual assistants, real-time data analytics, and adaptive learning platforms, to enhance collaborative learning processes. The study shows that collaborative teaching implemented with the assistance of artificial intelligence enhances the performance of students as they are capable of understanding the content thoroughly and addressing the shortcomings of conventional learning methods. Consideration is also given to the various strategies that may be adopted when it comes to the implementation of artificial intelligence in cooperative learning contexts
Scientific evolution of “Gender parity” concept as a key strategy for empowerment
Get PDFA bibliometric analysis and a literature review on gender parity theories were carried out using Scopus and VOSviewer. The search in Scopus allowed us to study the temporal evolution, types of publications (books, articles, scientific notes), disciplines and countries. The results show that gender parity has been studied since 1968, with a gap between 1969 and 1993 and a notable increase since 2006. Social sciences lead the research, followed by arts and humanities, business, medicine and economics. In Mexico, parity is supported by the three spheres of government, with significant advances in the electoral field. Countries such as Sweden, Finland and Denmark show high female representation in their congresses, while Italy, the United Kingdom, France and Greece present weaker systems. It is concluded that gender parity and legislative power quotas are essential for social and female empowerment, highlighting the need for more robust public policies and interdisciplinary approaches to achieve real and effective equity

Teaching Beyond Degrees of Non-Teacher Education DOST Scholars: A Phenomenology
Get PDFIntroduction :This study explores the experiences of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) scholars by examining the challenges of the profession, the multiple roles they fulfill, the skills they apply, and the support they receive in their professional development.Methods: Using a descriptive phenomenological approach, the study examines the challenges, role expectations, skill applications, and support systems that shape their professional journeys. Ten non-teacher education graduates serving as Senior High School teachers were purposively selected and interviewed. Data was analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: Through a phenomenological approach, the research identified several themes, including (1) teaching is a challenging profession, (2) teaching is a multiple-role task, (3) teaching requires learned skills, and (4) teaching requires support from others. Findings reveal that these teachers face significant challenges due to a lack of pedagogical training, lesson planning skills, and classroom management expertise. Additionally, they navigate multiple responsibilities, including administrative duties and out-of-field teaching assignments. Despite these difficulties, they utilize their collegiate learning, social and communication skills, and innovative strategies such as game-based learning to enhance student engagement. The study also highlights the crucial role of mentorship, coaching, and colleague collaboration in supporting their teaching effectiveness and professional development. Conclusion: The narratives of the participants highlight the challenges, responsibilities, skill applications, and support systems that shape their professional journey. Findings reveal that teaching, while fulfilling, is a demanding profession requiring specific pedagogical competencies. The lack of formal training in pedagogy, lesson planning, and classroom management posed significant struggles, reinforcing the need for structured professional development programs for non-education graduates.
The Effectiveness Of The Distance Learning Policy In The Riau Islands Province-Indonesia
Get PDFIntroduction: This study investigated the effectiveness of distance learning in the Riau Islands, employing a mixed-methods approach with a sequential exploratory design.Methods: The study was conducted in two phases: the first utilized a quantitative approach, and the second applied a qualitative method. The population consisted of tutors and students from the Open University of Batam (Indonesian: Universitas Terbuka Batam). Data collection methods included observations, surveys, interviews, and document analysis.Results: The findings indicated that, based on the student survey, the effectiveness of distance learning was 74.68%, categorized as effective. While the effectiveness indicators generally fell within the “effective” range, the implementation of distance learning in the Riau Islands had not yet reached the optimal percentage for the “effective” category. Several challenges impacted its effectiveness, including a low culture of independent learning among students, limited responsiveness of tutors outside class hours, and technical issues such as poor network connectivity and digital literacy barriers. Nonetheless, several supporting factors contributed to the effectiveness of distance learning, such as the innovative nature of the learning system, cost efficiency, and the flexibility that enabled students to engage in learning anytime and anywhere. Using the Context, Input, Process, and Product (CIPP) Model, the study framework focused on designing tutorial activities, tutorial activity units, the question bank, and assessment rubrics.Conclusions: The variable indicators fall within the “effective” category, the implementation of distance learning for students in the Riau Islands has not yet reached the maximum percentage range for the practical category
