Abstract ChatGPT has ushered in a new era of artificial intelligence (AI) that already significant consequences for many industries, including health care and education. Generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT, refer to is designed create or generate content, text, images, music, from their trained parameters. With free access online an easy-to-use conversational interface, quickly accumulated more than 100 million users within the first few months its launch. Recent headlines popular press...

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in medical education has the potential to facilitate complicated tasks and improve efficiency. For example, AI could help automate assessment written responses, or provide feedback on image interpretations with excellent reliability. While applications learning, instruction, are growing, further exploration is still required. There exist few conceptual methodological guides for educators wishing evaluate engage research. In this guide, we aim to: 1)...

Abstract Although explicit grammar instruction has been a source of considerable debate in second-language teaching, increasingly educational linguists assert academic language is critical, given the current assessment reform K–12 contexts. Of particular concern that contemporary English-Language-Learner (ELL) focuses on making content comprehensible to ELLs manner may lead inadequate exposure language, which considered paramount ELLs' success. Therefore, it necessary develop methods for...

Few studies have investigated cognitive factors affecting learning of procedural skills in medical education. Cognitive load theory, which focuses on working memory, is highly relevant, but methods for measuring during training are not well understood. Using colonoscopy as an exemplar, we used theory to develop a self-report instrument measure three types (intrinsic, extraneous and germane load) provide evidence validity.We developed the (the Load Inventory Colonoscopy [CLIC]) using...
