Developing an AI Chatbot to Support Quantitative Foundations for Business/Economics Students

Developing an AI Chatbot to Support Quantitative Foundations for Business/Economics Students
California State University, Channel Islands
Yeawon Yoo, an Assistant Professor at CSU Channel Islands, developed a chatbot designed to support business and economics majors in a quantitative foundations course. The chatbot provides interactive practice questions, explanations, and immediate feedback to help students strengthen their understanding of key concepts. The tool promotes active learning and supports diverse learning styles, making complex material more accessible. This chatbot can be adapted to a variety of quantitative courses and will help students engage more effectively with the content.

AI-assisted control systems learning project

AI-assisted control systems learning project
California State University, Channel Islands
Vedang Chauhan, an instructor at California State University Channel Islands (CSUCI), has developed an AI-assisted learning module for a Feedback Control Systems course. This project introduces a self-guided, AI-supported learning approach aimed at promoting active engagement and deeper understanding in technical subjects. The method centers on structured, prompt-based exploration using AI tools like ChatGPT, where students begin with guided prompts, receive explanations and step-by-step walkthroughs, and then customize the interaction based on their individual learning styles and pace. The AI functions as a supportive peer tutor, helping students clarify concepts, develop problem-solving strategies, enhance critical thinking, and build confidence. The approach concludes with a student-completed problem and a short assessment to evaluate understanding without AI assistance. As a demonstration of this model, the topic of design via state-space methods in control systems is used to illustrate how AI can improve comprehension of abstract and mathematical concepts while fostering ethical and independent learning.

Using Interactive Videos to Enhance Student Engagement in an Online Asynchronous Course

Using Interactive Videos to Enhance Student Engagement in an Online Asynchronous Course
California State University, Channel Islands
Ellen Lewis, a lecturer at CSU Channel Islands, used PlayPosit to develop five interactive videos for PSY 457: Criminal Behavior, incorporating lecture recordings based on Chapter 3 of the course textbook (Heilbrun et al., 2024). Each video included multiple-choice, true/false, and discussion questions embedded throughout the lecture, prompting students to pause, reflect, and respond before continuing. To evaluate the impact of this interactive format, a post-lecture survey gathered student feedback on their experience compared to traditional lecture recordings without embedded questions. The sample provided here represents the final segment of the lecture. Reference Heilbrun, K., Greene, E., & Bradfield Douglass, A. (2024). Understanding crime.

ElementQuest: Mastering the First 36 Elements Through an Interactive Game

ElementQuest: Mastering the First 36 Elements Through an Interactive Game
California State University, Channel Islands
Benny Ng, an instructor at California State University Channel Islands, developed an interactive game using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to help students build spatial recognition of elements in the periodic table. The game challenged students to quickly locate elements under time pressure, turning rote memorization into a fun, competitive experience. This approach supported the learning goal of helping students internalize element positions as a foundation for understanding periodic trends. By using browser-based technologies accessible on any device without the need for installation, the game showcased how gamification can enhance chemistry education, boosting student engagement and improving recall of key concepts.
