Intelligent Tutoring Systems in Mathematics Education: A Systematic Literature Review Using the Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, Redefinition Model

Scholars have claimed that artificial intelligence can be used in education to transform learning. However, there is insufficient evidence on whether intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs), a representative form of artificial intelligence in education, has transformed the teaching and learning of mathematics. To fill this gap, this systematic review was conducted to examine empirical studies from 2003 to 2023 that used ITSs in mathematics education. Technology integration was coded using the substitution, augmentation, modification, redefinition (SAMR) model, which was extended to suit ITSs in a mathematics education context. How different contexts and teacher roles are intertwined with SAMR levels were examined. The results show that while ITSs in mathematics education primarily augmented existing learning, recent ITS studies have transformed students’ learning experiences. ITSs were most commonly applied at the elementary school level, and most ITS studies focused on the areas of number and arithmetic, algebra, and geometry. The level of SAMR varied depending on the research purpose, and ITS studies in mathematics education were mainly conducted in a way that minimized teacher intervention. The results of this study suggest that the affordance of an ITS, the educational context, and the teacher’s role should be considered simultaneously to demonstrate the transformative power of ITSs in mathematics education.

Affirming sexual and gender diversity in an elementary school after school program: a case study

Research demonstrates that programming and curricula that is affirmative and inclusive of sexual and gender minority (SGM) people is potentially lifesaving for students in middle and high school. There has been little examination, however, of SGM-affirmative programming at the elementary school level. Elementary school level programming has the potential to benefit SGM youth and families, as well as lead to more affirmative attitudes in later school settings. This study reports on the factors that create and sustain an elementary after school program that has implemented SGM-affirmative programming within a social justice and arts framework for over 20 years. We conducted thematic analysis of interviews with teachers, administrators, and parents in the program and the associated elementary school to identify factors that contribute to the program’s success in affirming and including SGM people. Findings highlight affirmative policies and systems (inclusive mission statements, policies encouraging expression, and hiring diverse staff) and consistent enactment of inclusive and affirmative behaviors (affirming diversity, implementing inclusive curriculum, using inclusive language, and disrupting normativity and implementing restorative practices) as key components of an SGM-affirmative program with elementary-aged students. Results highlight that creating an SGM-affirmative elementary level program is possible and provide an exemplar of this programming in action. Implications and potential focus areas for policy and practice implementation are discussed.
