Redefining and measuring student agency in AI-assisted learning: Development and validation of the agentic engagement with AI (AE-AI) scale
Student agency has become a central concern in learning with AI. With growing capability and adaptiveness, GenAI tools are no longer merely passive tools but responsive participants in learning. This shift makes agency relational and reciprocal: students exercise agency through intentional engagement with AI, while AI responses shape how students express, adjust, and develop that agency. Existing instruments, however, continue to frame agency as …
The impacts and tensions of generative AI on doctoral students’ supervisory and peer dynamics: An activity theory analysis
Doctoral students are increasingly adopting generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools in their daily academic activities. However, it remains unclear how GenAI influences doctoral training, particularly in terms of supervisory and peer interactions within PhD programmes. This qualitative study investigated the impact of GenAI adoption on doctoral students’ interactions with supervisors and peers within their immediate academic environments…
University policies on generative AI in Asia: Promising Practices, Gaps, and Future Directions
Considering the opportunities and challenges raised by generative AI (GenAI) technologies, many universities have been developing policies to guide the integration of GenAI in their academic community. Focusing on Asian universities, this paper presents a scoping review of policy development regarding the GenAI integration. Guided by the theoretical framework of technology integration, this study examined the GenAI policies of 30 universities fro…
ChatGPT and its impact on research supervision: Insights from Australian postgraduate research students
As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to evolve, its impact on academic environments, especially in postgraduate research supervision, becomes increasingly significant. This study explored the impact of ChatGPT, an advanced AI conversational model, on five dimensions of research supervision: functional, enculturation, critical thinking, emancipation and relationship development. Using a qualitative approach, we examined the practices and pers…
