This special issue will consider the contemporary topic of ‘Generative AI and Education’. Educational communications through Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) are reported in some instances to be of help to teachers (for example, in managing document creation) and to learners (for example, in searching for relevant and specific topic material). However, at the same time, there are concerns raised about uses that might be inappropriate (for example, passing off unverified or unvalidated GenAI-created material as one’s own) or unhelpful (for example, accepting source material that is not checked for accuracy). This Special Issue will consider this contemporary topic of ‘Generative AI and Education’, which requires ongoing monitoring and exploration as the digital technology facilities continue to develop and emerge.
