Improvement of Pre-Service Teachers' Practical Knowledge and Motivation about Artificial Intelligence through a Service-learning-based Module in Guizhou, China: A Quasi-Experimental Study

Abstract

Abstract. The purpose of this study is twofold: 1) to develop a service-learning-based module training artificial intelligence (AI) subject (SLBM-TAIS), and 2) to evaluate the effect of SLBM-TAIS on pre-service teachers’ (PSTs’) practical knowledge and motivation, as well as primary school students' attitude towards AI in China. Participants of this study comprised 60 PSTs and 107 primary school students. The experimental research in this study followed the quasi-experimental non-randomized pre-test and post-test control group design. The PSTs were divided into experimental and control groups, and the primary school students followed the same grouping. The PSTs in the experimental group taught AI subjects to the primary school students in the experimental group, while the PSTs in the control group taught AI subjects to the primary school students in the control group. The results of the study showed that SLBM-TAIS was effective in training PSTs to teach AI subjects to primary school students. Furthermore, the SLBM-TAIS developed in this study offered a unique technique for training PSTs and primary school students that could increase PSTs' practical knowledge and motivation, as well as primary school students' attitudes toward AI. The findings from this study are important in the field of educational psychology, and its contribution has several theoretical and practical implications.

Civic Engagement and Higher Education Develop Student in Civic Education Through based Project Citizen Model Learning

“…With the project citizen model there are six stages in preparing the student work program, namely: identifying problems, choosing problems, collecting information, fortofolio documents, reflecting studies and, determining the solution of the problem. The results showed that through the learning model project citizen experienced several positive influences, namely; (1) students enjoy the implementation of practical activities; (2) students have the opportunity to study various problems to be solved; (3) Students can understand how to position themselves in seeing others; (4) students experiencing conditions must face the obstacles of different ways of solving problems, and; (5) students can learn the culture of the communities they serve; (6) may determine policy alternatives to the issue. Thus it can be blinded that student involvement in the community through the project citizen model can bring change.…”

“…Campus as an academic environment is responsible for managing and involving students in various community-based fundamental projects. Life skills and student participation that develops after participating in community activities aim to increase self-potency (civic skills) and individual responsibilities as part of a community [2].…”

Investigating Students Motivation as Autonomous Learners in English Language Acquisition: A Study on Politeknik Pelayaran Sulawesi Utara

“…The onus falls on students to proactively take the initiative in their learning endeavors, fostering a positive disposition conducive to favorable learning outcomes. Hu & McGeown, (2020); Mentang et al, (2022); Pu et al, (2021) posit that effective communication in language learning hinges upon adept deployment of language skills. Consequently, learners who flourish in autonomous learning environments characterized by interactive engagement are more adept at acquiring a diverse repertoire of language skills.…”
