This study aims to use dialectical thinking to explore the impacts and responses of Artificial Intelligence (AI) empowerment on students’ personalized learning. The effect of AI empowerment on student personalization is dissected through a literature review and empirical cases. The study finds that AI plays a significant role in promoting personalized learning by enhancing students’ learning effectiveness through intelligent recommendation, automated feedback, improving students’ independent learning ability, and optimizing learning paths, however, the wide application of AI also brings problems such as technological dependence, cheating in exams, weakening of critical thinking ability, educational fairness, and data privacy protection to students. The study proposes recommendations to strengthen technology regulation, enhance the synergy between teachers and AI, and optimize the personalized learning model. AI-enabled personalized learning is expected to play a greater role in improving learning efficiency and educational fairness.
Retinal disorders, such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, macular edema, and vein occlusions, are significant contributors to global vision impairment. These conditions frequently remain symptomless until patients suffer severe vision deterioration, underscoring the critical importance of early diagnosis. Fundus images serve as a valuable resource for identifying the initial indicators of these ailments, particularly by examining various characteristics of retinal blood vessels, such as their length, width, tortuosity, and branching patterns. Traditionally, healthcare practitioners often rely on manual retinal vessel segmentation, a process that is both time-consuming and intricate, demanding specialized expertise. However, this approach poses a notable challenge since its precision and consistency heavily rely on the availability of highly skilled professionals. To surmount these challenges, there is an urgent demand for an automatic and efficient method for retinal vessel segmentation and classification employing computer vision techniques, which form the foundation of biomedical imaging. Numerous researchers have put forth techniques for blood vessel segmentation, broadly categorized into machine learning, filtering-based, and model-based methods. Machine learning methods categorize pixels as either vessels or non-vessels, employing classifiers trained on hand-annotated images. Subsequently, these techniques extract features using 7D feature vectors and apply neural network classification. Additional post-processing steps are used to bridge gaps and eliminate isolated pixels. On the other hand, filtering-based approaches employ morphological operators within morphological image processing, capitalizing on predefined shapes to filter out objects from the background. However, this technique often treats larger blood vessels as cohesive structures. Model-based methods leverage vessel models to identify retinal blood vessels, but they are sensitive to parameter selection, necessitating careful choices to simultaneously detect thin and large vessels effectively. Our proposed research endeavors to conduct a thorough and empirical evaluation of the effectiveness of automated segmentation and classification techniques for identifying eye-related diseases, particularly diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. This evaluation will involve various retinal image datasets, including DRIVE, REVIEW, STARE, HRF, and DRION. The methodologies under consideration encompass machine learning, filtering-based, and model-based approaches, with performance assessment based on a range of metrics, including true positive rate (TPR), true negative rate (TNR), positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), false discovery rate (FDR), Matthews's correlation coefficient (MCC), and accuracy (ACC). The primary objective of this research is to scrutinize, assess, and compare the design and performance of different segmentation and classification techniques, encompassing both supervised and unsupervised learning methods. To attain this objective, we will refine existing techniques and develop new ones, ensuring a more streamlined and computationally efficient approach.
Comparative studies of national values are becoming increasingly important in the context of contemporary globalization processes. An essential condition for the shaping of national values in learners is the enrichment of pedagogical technology with components of digital technology. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were used in the current study. The purpose of this research is to examine the efficacy of mobile learning in shaping the national values of prospective teachers. The experiment included 180 participants. Diagnostics of the levels of national values formation in the initial stage confirmed the assumption about the low formation of national values among teacher candidates and, consequently, the need for targeted work on their formation. This study demonstrates that significant advances in students’ national values have occurred following the introduction and testing of mobile learning with experimental group (EG) participants to shape national values. The data from this study can serve as the basis for creating strategies for shaping the national values of learners in universities and as a methodological basis for adapting mobile learning for the shaping of national values.
This research aims to develop a Synergy Learning Model in the context of science learning. This research was conducted at Islamic Junior High School, Madrasah Tsanawiyah Negeri 2 Medan, involving 64 students of Grade 7 as the research subject. The method used in this research refers to the development research approach (R&D). In collecting the data, the research employed test and non-test techniques. The results prove that the Synergy learning model developed is effective in improving student learning outcomes. This is evident through the t-test statistical test where the t-count of 4.26 is higher than the t-table of 1.99. In addition, the level of practicality with a score of 3.39 is categorized as practical. This learning model emphasizes the learning process that supports the development of science skills and develops students' competencies in planning, collaborating, and critically reflecting. The findings of this study contribute to pedagogical practices and literature in the field of science learning.
This research focused on the design and implementation of the flipped classroom approach for higher mathematics courses in medical colleges. Out of 120 students, 60 were assigned to the experimental group and 60 to the control group. In the continuous assessment, which included homework and quizzes, the average score of the experimental group was 85.5 ± 5.5, while that of the control group was 75.2 ± 8.1 (P < 0.05). For the final examination, the average score in the experimental group was 88.3 ± 6.2, compared to 78.1 ± 7.3 in the control group (P < 0.01). The participation rate of students in the experimental group was 80.5%, significantly higher than the 50.3% in the control group (P < 0.001). Regarding autonomous learning ability, the experimental group spent an average of 3.2 hours per week on self-study, compared to 1.5 hours in the control group (P < 0.005). Other potential evaluation indicators could involve the percentage of students achieving high scores (90% or above) in problem-solving tasks (25.8% in the experimental group vs. 10.3% in the control group, P < 0.05), and the improvement in retention of key concepts after one month (70.2% in the experimental group vs. 40.5% in the control group, P < 0.01). In conclusion, the flipped classroom approach holds substantial promise in elevating the learning efficacy of higher mathematics courses within medical colleges, offering valuable insights for educational innovation and improvement.
Named Entity Recognition (NER), a core task in Information Extraction (IE) alongside Relation Extraction (RE), identifies and extracts entities like place and person names in various domains. NER has improved business processes in both public and private sectors but remains underutilized in government institutions, especially in developing countries like Indonesia. This study examines which government fields have utilized NER over the past five years, evaluates system performance, identifies common methods, highlights countries with significant adoption, and outlines current challenges. Over 64 international studies from 15 countries were selected using PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The findings are synthesized into a preliminary ontology design for Government NER.
