Künstliche Intelligenz in den Naturwissenschaftsdidaktiken – gekommen, um zu bleiben: Potenziale, Desiderata, Herausforderungen
摘要
Science education research that draws on machine learning (ML) methods represents a rapidly and dynamically developing field. Against the background of much work focusing on assessment or evaluations of ML models for their validity and effectiveness, this paper argues that future research should place greater emphasis on the transformative potential of ML for teaching and learning without losing sight of ethical and epistemological challenges as part of critical reflection. Using two continuums spanned by the antipodes of “basic research and practical orientation” and “incremental and disruptive innovation,” these perspectives are brought together through four exemplary research areas: First, “Individualizing instruction”; second, “Understanding learning processes through physiological sensors and multimodal analysis”; third, “Integrating qualitative and quantitative data”; and finally, “Researching with AI”. This paper uses the state of international research and science didactic problems to further specify the potential of ML for science education. Orientation is suggested to researchers, and key challenges for the advancement of the field are described that could inform science education research in ML in the coming years.
