Modern Technology and Learning

With the advent of the Internet and technology, the traditional teaching and learning have largely transformed into digital education. Teachers and students are significantly reliant upon the use of digital media in face-to-face classrooms and remote online learning. The adoption of digital media in education profoundly modif ies the landscape of education, particularly with regard to online learning, e-learning, blended learning and face-to-face digital-assisted learning, offering new possibilities but also challenges that need to be explored and assessed.

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in modern education is rapidly expanding and transforming how teaching and learning are designed, delivered, and evaluated. This track explores the opportunities AI presents for advancing educational pedagogy, enhancing learning technologies, and enabling smart education systems.

We also invite contributions that examine innovative applications of AI to support personalized learning, adaptive assessment, intelligent tutoring systems, learning analytics, curriculum design, and data-driven decision-making in educational contexts. The track also welcomes research on the pedagogical foundations of AI-enhanced learning, ethical considerations, and the integration of AI within smart and digitally enabled educational environments.
