About the Journal

Overview

AI in Teaching and Learning (CUAITL) is an international, peer-reviewed academic journal published by Cosmopolitan University, Nigeria. The journal advances scholarly understanding of how artificial intelligence is reshaping education — from early childhood through higher education and professional development.

CUAITL bridges the gap between AI research and classroom application, publishing rigorous work that examines how intelligent technologies shape curriculum design, pedagogical strategies, learner engagement, assessment, and institutional policy. The journal fosters critical, evidence-based discourse on both the opportunities and ethical considerations of AI-driven learning environments.

Aims and Scope

The journal welcomes original research articles, systematic review papers, case studies, and well-grounded theoretical contributions. We invite interdisciplinary work connecting computer science, pedagogy, cognitive science, policy studies, and the social sciences around the theme of AI-enabled learning. Topics of particular interest include:

  • Intelligent tutoring systems and adaptive learning environments
  • Natural language processing and generative AI in educational applications
  • Machine learning for learner analytics, early-warning systems, and personalisation
  • AI-assisted curriculum design, lesson planning, and assessment
  • Ethics, equity, and bias in AI-driven education
  • Teacher professional development and digital literacy for AI integration
  • Institutional policy frameworks for responsible AI adoption in schools and universities
  • AI tools supporting learners with disabilities and special educational needs
  • Comparative and cross-cultural studies on AI in education
  • Evaluation and impact studies of AI-powered educational technologies
