The Role of Emotional Communication Within the Family in the Development of Emotional Intelligence: Exploring the Potential of Artificial Intelligence in Fostering Emotional Intelligence
101-114Views:148The study, conducted against a systems theory background, aimed to investigate the emotional intelligence of adolescents, comparing it with the communication and emotional expression patterns of their families. A total of 44 young people aged 14-17 years participated in the study, and data were collected using a self-compiled demographic questionnaire, an abridged version of the Bar-On Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire Adolescent Version, an abridged version of the Family Emotional Expression Skills Questionnaire, and the Olson Family Test. The research results showed that in well-functioning families, children's emotional intelligence can develop better through better communication and better emotional expression: the family as a primary socialisation setting thus plays a key role in the acquisition of emotional competences. In addition, artificial intelligence, a modern-day achievement, can also play a role in developing young people's emotional intelligence and increasing their emotional awareness.

Quo Vadis, Education? Advantages and Fears in Light of Artificial Intelligence
77-87Views:294The emergence and rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has undoubtedly triggered one of the most significant transformational processes in recent years. This transformation affects a wide range of fields, as the expansion of AI is becoming increasingly evident not only in everyday life but also in the scientific world. While much of the literature explores both the advantages and disadvantages of AI, one aspect is undeniable: its presence and role in education —particularly in higher education— is already palpable. The proliferation of the latest AI technologies has the potential to revolutionize various educational systems, thereby creating new challenges for stakeholders in higher education. This study aims to present the benefits and risks associated with artificial intelligence and to examine whether, and to what extent, perspectives in the literature have shifted over the past few years. What do experts identify as the positive and negative aspects of AI technologies in the context of education? Through a content analysis of the relevant literature, the study seeks to explore the emerging advantages and dangers of using artificial intelligence, as well as how these aspects have evolved over a short period of time.

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Research Support
7-17Views:172The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in scientific research is becoming increasingly widespread, offering significant potential to enhance the efficiency of researcher work and improve the quality of research. This study examines the role of artificial intelligence in research, with particular attention to literature search and analysis (Tolner et al., 2023), data processing and evaluation (Bessenyei, 2020), and content generation (Szűts & Námesztovszki, 2023). Employing the method of hermeneutic analysis (Bos & Tarnai, 1999), we explore the opportunities that AI offers in these areas, while also presenting the associated challenges and ethical considerations. Our results demonstrate that AI can lead to significant time savings and increased efficiency, as well as aid in the discovery of complex patterns. However, it is important to consider the limitations of AI, such as the lack of deeper understanding, potential biases, and questions regarding the reliability of generated content. The study concludes that artificial intelligence does not replace the human researcher, but rather functions as a knowledge support tool (Z. Karvalics, 2024), the responsible and ethical application of which is crucial to ensure scientific progress.

Possibilities for Introduction of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Education System with a Holistic Approach
27-41Views:169The current spread of generative artificial intelligence cannot escape anyone's attention. This necessarily results in changes in all areas of life, including education, to which we need not only to react but also to prepare and anticipate. The study approaches the topic with a holistic approach and, based on recent research, formulates a methodological proposal based on recent research that can form the basis for developing a complex long-term strategy for the introduction of generative artificial intelligence in education. As part of this, after laying the theoretical background and methodological foundations, the prerequisites and preparatory steps necessary for strategy creation are mapped out, the stakeholders are identified, and proposals are then formulated regarding long-term goals and their breakdown into operational plans and action sequences, covering sensitization, building teacher competence, the application of artificial intelligence in teaching and education for students. The study highlights key areas and draws attention to steps to help solve current and future problems, including expected impacts and consequences.

INVESTIGATING THE WILLINGNESS TO USE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN EDUCATION AMONG STUDENTS OF SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHERS
31-45Views:1234Goal: Artificial intelligence-based systems, tools, and services have penetrated all areas of life, including education. The aim of this study is to find out the views of future special education teachers on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. Method: In research, we surveyed n= 157 students in special education teachers with a questionnaire survey. The results were evaluated by mathematical statistical analysis using SPSS software. Within the software, cross-tabulation analysis, χ2 test, and frequency analysis were used. Results: only a very small percentage (18.5%) of the prospective special education teachers had encountered tools based on AI and applications during their previous studies. They will prefer to use AI tools outside classroom activities. There is no significant difference in the willingness to use AI in relation to age, 59.7% of those under 24 years and 65% of those over 24 years consider AI tools necessary in special needs education. However their knowledge about AI applications, tools, and possibilities is very uncertain and limited, and therefore there is a need for a wide dissemination of AI education.

Do We Need an AI History? : Historical Perspectives of Artificial Intelligence in Hungarian Digital Pedagogy Literature
19-26Views:183Is there a historical dimension to digital pedagogy? The evidence suggests yes! Is the IT historical aspect an immanent part of a digital pedagogical study on the use of artificial intelligence? This question is more complex to answer. A multifaceted theoretical analysis that approaches the studies from a bird's eye view reveals that knowledge of the historical background is essential for presenting even the most modern topics. We cannot look at artificial intelligence otherwise than as a product group of IT sciences that makes its user think: in what way and to what extent is it human, in what way and to what extent is it helpful, where are the limits of its artificiality. This study aims to prove, primarily by grasping at some of the helpful handholds of the rich methodology of hermeneutic reading, that without quality historiography there is no theory – and without the dialectic of theory and historicity– without this fertile duality – there is no practically usable science supporting education. The Hungarian digital pedagogical literature is a diverse repository of the use of the historical aspect – and our analysis also reveals that AI does not have a unified history so much as „stories”. Traditions without which the current tendencies would be incomprehensible.

Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Education
115-123Views:288Artificial intelligence has integrated itself into our everyday lives. The use of AI in education is not a new topic. The research aimed to explore the attitudes, experiences and potential applications of professionals working with children in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. A questionnaire method was used in the research. The survey included 122 participants (n=122). The results showed that the majority of respondents have a positive opinion of AI, even if they do not actively use it in their daily lives. Among the application areas of AI, data collection stands out in terms of popularity, while in other areas (e.g. preparing presentations, preparing for class, preparing assignments, searching for scientific literature), its uptake is more moderate but significant among respondents. Results show that AI is mostly used for tasks that facilitate information gathering and content creation. Most respondents think that AI can be used in certain areas, and there is a significant minority that is positive about its future use. There is great potential for future applications in education, although current experience and applications have not yet triggered a full-scale transformation.

How to Use Artificial Intelligence in Education for Teaching?
55-64Views:179The use of artificial intelligence has become increasingly popular and is frequently used as a tool among students. It has a significant impact on education and students, which is why it is important to discuss it. Students use AI to complete homework assignments, create presentations, and write essays, while some teachers either do not use it or are not even aware of its existence. Based on this, the question arises: how important is it to prepare both teachers and students for the use of artificial intelligence in the teaching and learning process? This study examines the positive and negative effects of AI on education and, through a review of the literature, summarizes the arguments for and against its use.

AI-Based Autonomous Language Learning: Reality or Utopia?
89-100Views:105In the literature, self-regulatory or autonomous learning is invariably defined using active, action-oriented verbs (e.g. direct, control, regulate), thus highlighting the importance of decision-making responsibility — a factor that results in a particularly complex process when it comes to language learning, as it involves both oral and written skill sets. Written and listening comprehension, speech production, written composition, grammatical knowledge, and vocabulary need to be practised. With the rise of AI-based learning support tools, many people feel that autonomous language learning is 100% feasible. In this paper, 19 studies are examined using the methods of hermeneutic analysis and critical discourse analysis to determine whether language learners are indeed ready for fully autonomous AI-based learning. In addition, the study will also seek to find out whether teachers are prepared to support this process with appropriate methods.

The Need to Educate People about AI
65-76Views:161The rise of artificial intelligence can be felt in all areas of life. The technology, which has been continuously developing since the 1950s, has gradually entered everyday life unnoticed by most people. With the appearance of Chat GPT, launched by Open AI, which exploded in the fall of 2022, events accelerated, and we are getting more and more information about the operation of AI. All areas of education have responded to these changes, to different degrees and speeds depending on the country. The fundamental task of education is to prepare students for life and to provide them with usable knowledge. Professionals working in education, and educational researchers are constantly looking for ways to prepare students for a world that we do not yet know, but one thing is certain: AI will be a determining factor in it. Knowledge about the opportunities and dangers inherent in AI is slowly being incorporated into the curriculum, and the first condition for this is that teachers are also adequately trained in this area. In this study, I analyze the topic based on the literature on the use of AI in education and the preparedness of professionals to see how ready education is for a world where AI literacy will be, or already is, a fundamental condition for competitiveness.
