The paper demonstrates that humans and AI systems achieve better performance when collaborating rather than working alone. It investigates how two design dimensions—autonomy and initiative—shape collaboration patterns, using a paradox perspective to uncover internal tensions and map underlying paradoxes. From this analysis, the authors derive four distinct human‑AI collaboration patterns: Instruction, Delegation, Assistance, and Co‑creation.
arXiv:2606. 09041v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Research on artificial intelligence in education (AIED) is rapidly expanding, yet technical progress often lacks human-centered grounding and adequate attention to cultural context.
arXiv:2608. 11245v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online education offers unprecedented scalability and accessibility to global learners from diverse backgrounds, but it often suffers from low engagement and poor long term learning effectiveness.
arXiv:2606. 12441v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The four dominant learning theories of behaviorism, cognitivism, constructivism, and connectivism show significant conceptual limitations as generative artificial intelligence (AI) proliferates in educational settings.
arXiv:2607. 12180v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: An AI teammate's design properties (personality, communication style, when it speaks) can shape a team's trust, coordination, and decisions.
arXiv:2608. 05171v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative AI (GAI) creates new opportunities for collaborative problem-solving (CPS), yet its role in shaping student interaction remains unclear.
The paper explores how Artificial Intelligence can enhance cooperative engineering workflows, focusing on the European Rover Challenge where student teams design complex rover systems under tight deadlines. A 40‑question survey of 14 teams revealed common bottlenecks such as poor documentation, unclear requirements, fragmented communication, informal task monitoring, and significant integration rework. Based on these findings, the authors propose requirements for AI‑augmented workflows and outline an assistant system architecture that integrates user interfaces, credential management, service selection, specialized AI services, and external engineering tools to support task clarification, requirement compliance, communication summarization, integration risk detection, and continuous knowledge capture.
arXiv:2607. 08748v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this study, we present a large-scale descriptive analysis of the use of an AI-based learning assistant (Syntea) in higher education.
arXiv:2607. 13370v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper is an extension of a paper presented at the ICAART 2026 conference, which introduced LEA (Learning Engagement Assistant), an adaptive AI tutoring agent combining course-specific Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with structured Knowledge Component (KC) models across integrated Chat, Tutor, and Quiz modes.
This paper is an extension of a paper presented at the ICAART 2026 conference, which introduced LEA (Learning Engagement Assistant), an adaptive AI tutoring agent combining course-specific Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with structured Knowledge Component (KC) models across integrated Chat, Tutor, and Quiz modes. That prior work validated LEA on a single STEM course (CMP511) exclusively through simulation, using synthetic learner agents.
arXiv:2401. 07386v5 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This study expands on previous work that introduced the AIcon2abs method (AI from Concrete to Abstract: Demystifying Artificial Intelligence to the general public), an innovative approach designed to increase public understanding of machine learning (ML) across diverse age groups, including K-12 students, and aims to evaluate its effectiveness.
