This study examines college students’ awareness of and use of artificial intelligence (AI) in flipped classroom activities that involve Mathematics in the Modern World. The flipped classroom promotes self-paced learning and collaboration by having students work on learning materials outside of class and participate in interactive exercises in class. AI tools, increasingly prevalent in education, offer personalized support for college students through tutoring systems, problem-solving platforms, and chatbots, complementing the flipped classroom model. Furthermore, this assesses college students’ awareness of AI regarding the flipped classroom model, emphasizing advantages like participation, engagement, problem-solving skills, study habits, and academic achievement. It also looks into the AI tools that college students use to improve their education. The methodology involves 65 volunteer college students from the University of Makati who participate in a descriptive approach using a Likert scale questionnaire to assess student awareness across multiple aspects. Preliminary results show that college students are highly aware of the flipped classroom model, recognizing its impact on participation, problem-solving, and time management. They also demonstrate a strong awareness of AI’s potential to provide personalized feedback and improve academic performance, although practical usage of AI tools like chatbots and tutoring systems remains moderate. Although students understand the function AI plays in flipped classrooms, more integration and training are required to realize the potential advantages of these tools fully. The study highlights how crucial it is to promote digital literacy and individualized learning through AI-driven educational advancements.

This study investigated the role of mobile applications as aids in solving systems of linear equations with two variables through the graphical method. The use of mobile applications was examined in a group of primary and lower school students to evaluate their effectiveness in learning mathematics and improving their skills in solving systems of linear equations. The main goal of this scientific paper is to investigate and evaluate the role of mobile applications as aids in solving systems of linear equations, involving students in the research process. The research method included a mixed-methods design including quantitative analysis of mobile application results and qualitative analysis of students’ experiences and opinions. Data collection was conducted through individual interviews and classroom observations. The results show that the use of these technological tools has a positive impact on the involvement of students, increasing the interest and efficiency of learning. The findings also highlight challenges and suggestions for improving the use of mobile applications in the mathematics teaching context. This study contributes to the understanding of the use of mobile technology for the development of mathematical skills at the lower secondary school level.

Trigonometry is a mathematical field whose basic concepts are sine and cosine and have many different representations, some of which are covered at length in the Kosovo curriculum in high schools. Unfortunately, many of its aspects are taught procedurally, forcing students to learn without meaning and memorize formulas. The use of ICT enables the implementation of this unconventional proposal, through a series of activities. So, modern ICT provides an excellent tool to explore many of the concepts related to trigonometry, namely the graphical representation of trigonometric functions. Therefore, this study explores some of the potential of such ICTs to influence the performance of homework on graphing trigonometric functions. Qualitative research was chosen as the methodology for this study. Whereas, for this study, the selected sample is represented by about 30 students attending the eleventh grade at the music high school “Lorenc Antoni” in Prizren/Kosovo. Data collection for this study was conducted through online portfolios and an interview. The results of this study show the positive effect that ICT had on the students’ motivation for doing homework during the graphical presentation of trigonometric functions.
