    Abstract

    Background: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has increasingly been integrated into physical education (PE) to support motor learning through technologies such as computer vision, motion tracking, intelligent tutoring systems, virtual reality, and generative AI. However, evidence regarding its effectiveness remains fragmented across different intervention types and learning contexts.

    Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of AI-supported interventions on motor skill performance in physical education and sport settings and to synthesize complementary learning-related outcomes.

    Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted in accordance with PRISMA 2020. Scopus, PubMed, and ProQuest were searched through 22 June 2026. Eligible studies evaluated AI-supported, adaptive, or intelligent interventions in physical education, sport, or motor skill-learning contexts and reported learner-level motor performance; complementary learning-related outcomes were synthesized narratively. Risk of bias was assessed using RoB 2 and ROBINS-I, and standardized mean differences (SMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were synthesized using a random-effects model.

    Results: Fifteen studies were included in the qualitative synthesis; six contributed to the meta-analysis and nine were synthesized narratively. The pooled estimate favored the designated AI-supported experimental conditions over their comparators (SMD = 3.15, 95% CI 1.86–4.44; p < .001; I² = 98%). Given the small evidence base, very high heterogeneity, and variable risk of bias, the magnitude of this pooled effect is uncertain. Qualitative findings concerned short-term motor skill performance and complementary outcomes such as engagement, motivation, learning interest, and self-directed learning.

    Conclusions: AI-supported interventions may improve short-term motor skill performance in some physical education and sport contexts and may support complementary learning-related outcomes. However, the evidence is preliminary and highly heterogeneous, and immediate post-intervention performance should not be interpreted as definitive evidence of durable motor learning, retention, or transfer. AI should be considered a complementary pedagogical tool rather than a replacement for teacher or coach expertise.

    Abstract

    Background: The high teacher attrition rate in public primary schools in Techiman, Ghana, has become a serious problem that directly impacts the quality of education and the achievement of national education development goals.

    Objectives: The study investigated factors that influence teachers' attrition in the Techiman Municipality.

    Methods: One hundred ninety-seven teachers were sampled for the study using convenience and simple random sampling techniques. This study utilized the embedded mixed methods design with descriptive survey and phenomenology as research methods to collect quantitative and qualitative datasets using questionnaires and interviews as data collection tools. The qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis, while the quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics using the SPSS software.

    Results: It was found that teachers perceived salary as the major employer-related factor in teachers' attrition (relative importance index (RII) = 0.85). team member-related factors, such as the willingness of teachers to pursue another career outside education, were perceived as the primary factor of attrition (RII = 0.78). In contrast, an external-related factor, such as better opportunities in some other occupations, was ranked the first major contributor to teachers' attrition (RII = 0.88). The overall assessment of the factors of attrition based on the relative importance index revealed that Employer-related factors are the major contributor to teachers' attrition (RII = 0.70).

    Conclusions: The study recommends that the Ghana government find innovative ways of increasing teachers' salaries as a source of motivation and offer them other incentive packages to aid in retaining them in the service.

    Abstract

    Background: During health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic, children require accessible and developmentally appropriate resources to understand disease prevention and health-related behaviors. Children’s digital picture books have emerged as a promising medium for conveying public health messages through visual storytelling and age-appropriate narratives.

    Objectives: This study aimed to examine how children’s digital picture books represent disease preventive behaviors and moral values, using the Duma Says series as a case study.

    Methods: A qualitative visual and textual analysis was conducted on four digital picture books from the Duma Says Collector’s Edition. The study employed qualitative visual analysis and a critical discourse approach to examine representations of hygiene practices, social responsibility, and community engagement embedded in both images and narratives.

    Results: The findings indicate that the Duma Says series effectively integrates key COVID-19 preventive behaviors—such as handwashing, mask-wearing, social distancing, and sanitation—within child-friendly language and culturally contextualized visuals. In addition to promoting health practices, the books emphasize values of hope, responsibility, cooperation, and service, portraying children as active contributors to community well-being during a crisis.

    Conclusions: Children’s digital picture books, such as the Duma Says series, function as effective educational tools for promoting disease prevention awareness and values-based learning. Incorporating culturally grounded digital picture books into early childhood and health education may strengthen children’s health literacy, emotional resilience, and sense of social responsibility during public health emergencies.

    Abstract

    Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has lasted an extended period, during which many students have reported being adversely affected by the escalating global crisis.

    Objectives: This study examined the academic goals, learning barriers, facilitative strategies, and ways forward of pre-service teachers during emergency online learning.

    Methods: This qualitative case study employed content analysis to examine data gathered through focus group discussions. To explore the implications of survey findings and gain deeper insights into students' perspectives on remote learning, the researchers conducted Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with twelve purposively selected pre-service teachers via Google Meet. The discussion transcripts were analyzed to construct a compelling narrative, supported by literature and prior research, to explain emerging themes.

    Results: Among the twelve participants, ten reported experiencing psychosocial stress, eight cited recurring technical issues, and seven mentioned financial constraints as significant learning barriers. Despite these challenges, the participants remained motivated to complete their coursework, viewing academic achievement as a stepping stone toward improving their socio-economic conditions. They employed various strategies, including scheduling, note-taking, goal-setting, optimistic thinking, parental scaffolding, and systematic planning, to adapt to online learning. To ensure credibility, the researchers used member checking, peer debriefing, and FGD and survey data triangulation.

    Conclusions: These findings highlight the resilience and adaptability of pre-service teachers in navigating the challenges of emergency online learning, underscoring the need for supportive institutional policies and resources. Future research may consider comparing student experiences in public and private institutions or examining the long-term impact of emergency remote learning on teaching efficacy. Pedagogical and academic implications are further discussed.

    Abstract

    Background: As artificial intelligence (AI) continues transforming the educational landscape, pre-service teachers must develop theoretical understanding and practical skills in AI integration.

    Objectives: This study explored the relationship between AI literacy and TPACK among 139 BEED pre-service teachers.

    Methods: Using descriptive statistics, Spearman's correlation, and multiple linear regression analysis, the study investigated how components of AI literacy relate to TPACK.

    Results: Results revealed that the pre-service teachers demonstrated high levels of AI literacy, particularly in ethical awareness and intrinsic motivation. Pre-service teachers expressed strong interest in AI's educational potential and a commitment to its responsible use. While their foundational AI knowledge was high, many reported moderate self-efficacy and lacked confidence in executing AI-related tasks. Gaps were also noted in applying AI concepts to real-world teaching scenarios and designing AI-driven solutions. Furthermore, the results showed high TPACK proficiency, with strength in pedagogical and technological knowledge, though weaknesses were observed in content areas like mathematics and technical troubleshooting. A moderate positive correlation (Spearman's ρ = 0.48, p < 0.05) between AI literacy and TPACK indicates a meaningful association. Regression analysis revealed that AI literacy components explained 25.5% of the variance in TPACK. Cognitive learning emerged as the only significant predictor.

    Conclusions: The findings underscore the need for teacher education programs to provide hands-on, cognitive-focused AI training. Hence, enhancing pre-service teachers' cognitive and practical skills is essential to thoroughly preparing them for AI-enhanced teaching environments' demands.

    Abstract

    Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered a complex crisis in higher education that has not only disrupted formal learning but also given rise to an infodemic through the rapid spread of misinformation on digital platforms, making social media both a source of learning and a source of epistemic risk for students.

    Objectives: This study aims to explore how Filipino university students navigated learning experiences through social media during the COVID-19 polycrisis, focusing on preferred platforms, perceived educational relevance, and strategies for evaluating information credibility amid an infodemic.

    Methods: A qualitative case study design was employed. Six Filipino university students enrolled in a Bachelor of Elementary Education program participated in this study through purposive sampling. Data were collected via online semi-structured interviews, group chat discussions, document analysis of shared social media content, and follow-up interviews. Thematic analysis was conducted following Braun and Clarke's framework to identify recurring patterns across data sources.

    Results: Findings reveal that social media—particularly Facebook—served as a supplementary learning space, enabling students to access real-time information, engage with societal issues, and sustain their learning during the suspension of formal instruction. Students demonstrated active information-seeking behaviors, including cross-checking sources and exercising caution in sharing content. However, persistent exposure to misinformation highlighted their vulnerability within infodemic environments, especially in the absence of structured institutional guidance.

    Conclusions: Social media can support authentic and socially relevant learning during educational disruption, but its pedagogical value depends on students' critical and digital literacy capacities.

    Abstract

    Background: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in academic settings has gained increasing attention, particularly in improving students' writing skills. ChatGPT, a generative AI tool, has been explored as a potential aid in academic writing, providing instant feedback and enhancing students' ability to structure, revise, and refine their written work. However, there remains a need to systematically assess its effectiveness in undergraduate education

    Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of ChatGPT on the writing skills of undergraduate students through a scoping review, analyzing its effectiveness in enhancing grammar, vocabulary, coherence, and overall writing proficiency.

    Methods: A scoping review methodology was employed to identify relevant studies published between 2020 and 2024. A comprehensive search was conducted across seven academic databases: ScienceDirect, Scopus, ProQuest, EBSCOhost, Sage Journals, Taylor & Francis, and PubMed, using Boolean operators and predefined inclusion criteria. The studies were appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Tool for quasi-experimental research and the ROBVIS checklist for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess the risk of bias. The synthesis was conducted following the Synthesis Without Meta-Analysis (SWiM) guidelines, with PRISMA used for article selection and appraisal.

    Results: A total of nine studies were included in the review, conducted in Saudi Arabia, China, Ecuador, Indonesia, Iran, Pakistan, and India, involving a total of 839 undergraduate students. The duration of interventions varied, with most lasting between 10 to 16 weeks. The overall risk of bias was low, indicating strong methodological reliability. The findings revealed that ChatGPT significantly improved students' writing proficiency, particularly in areas of grammatical accuracy, vocabulary use, organization, and argument structure. Also, students using ChatGPT exhibited increased engagement and motivation in writing tasks compared to traditional methods. However, some studies cautioned against over-reliance on AI-generated text and raised concerns about academic integrity and originality.

    Conclusion: ChatGPT demonstrates promising potential as an AI-assisted writing tool, offering immediate feedback, structured learning support, and improved writing outcomes for undergraduate students. While its effectiveness is evident, further research is needed to establish best practices for integrating AI into academic writing instruction, ensuring that students develop critical thinking and independent writing skills while leveraging AI’s benefits responsibly.

    Abstract

    Background: Generative AI tools like ChatGPT are common in higher education, especially where students lack timely academic support. In many South-South Nigerian universities, gaps in postgraduate supervision may influence how students use such tools.

    Objectives: This study examines how postgraduate students become aware of ChatGPT, how much they use it, and why they rely on it when supervision is limited.

    Methods: A qualitative exploratory design was used. Twenty-one postgraduate students were purposively selected from universities in South-South Nigeria. Data were collected through online semi-structured interviews using a validated guide. Inductive thematic analysis, using Braun & Clarke’s framework, was applied to identify patterns in the data.

    Results: Findings show that awareness of ChatGPT is mostly informal, driven by peers, social media, and personal trial and error. Many students use ChatGPT frequently, especially during proposal writing, data analysis, and thesis development. Its use is strongly linked to delays or gaps in supervision.

    Conclusions: ChatGPT is widely used as a support tool and coping strategy, rather than merely a convenience. Its role reflects gaps in supervision and the need for clearer institutional guidance and training.
