Message patterns of online gender-based humor discriminatory practices biases stereotyping and disempowering tools through discourse analysis

Mathematics utilizes symbolic language, logics, relationships, and numerical connections that made it challenging for students to learn and develop their computational skills. Recently, artificial intelligence emerged as a supplement tool for education and learning because of its ability to detect relationships and logics. Academic institutions are looking on how to implement AI-assisted learning specifically for mathematics to aid in increasing the quantitative competence of students. This study analyzed the relief and limitations of AI chat models in learning among mathematics-oriented students in higher education. Fifteen students participated in this study from mathematics-oriented courses e.g., engineering, statistics, and education. Interviews were conducted on how students used AI chat models to assist in learning mathematical concepts and methods. Narratives indicated that AI chat models like ChatGPT and Bard were capable of accurately responding to chat prompts in problem solving, proving, and explanations. It was prominent that these AI models understood the mathematical language and use of symbols for integration, derivatives, limit, fractions, exponentials, and intervals. At some instances, AI models could give inaccurate results or incorrect methods for solving; they also sometimes give correct answers on second run of chat prompts after these mistakes. These results had promising implications in education as these accessible AI models could reinforce the firsthand learning of mathematical foundations. This preliminary study offered important usability of AI models in mathematics in assisting students and monitoring their learning progress.

“…The research design for this study utilized a qualitative approach to explore and analyze the message patterns surrounding the concepts of apology and forgiveness during Ramadan among college students practicing Islam. The study employed a discourse analysis method [16] to gain a comprehensive understanding of how apology and forgiveness are conceptualized, expressed, and experienced within the context of Ramadan. Gorup [17] described discourse analysis as "social reality is constructed and given meaning through language use" (p. 2).…”

Cultural values, beliefs, and traditions can significantly influence communication patterns related to seeking forgiveness. Within the context of Islam, apologizing during Ramadan is widely regarded as an integral part of religious practices. The significance of apologizing during Ramadan is observed among various Muslim communities, such as in Indonesia and the Philippines. The study aimed to explore how cultural values and religious teachings shape the perception and practice of apology among individuals during the holy month of Ramadan in the Philippines. The research employed a purposive sampling technique, selecting 16 college students who provided valuable insights into the message patterns surrounding apology and forgiveness within their cultural and religious context. The findings highlighted the enduring relevance of cultural and religious beliefs in shaping apology and forgiveness practices, even in the face of modern systems. Despite societal changes, the concept of apology based on cultural and religious values remained significant and remarkable among young Muslim individuals. Cultural and religious beliefs emphasized the importance of maintaining positive relationships with family, friends, relatives, and neighbors through seeking forgiveness and expressing apologies. The study contributed to the existing literature on forgiveness and cultural studies, providing insights into the interplay between cultural values, religious teachings, and apology practices during Ramadan.

“…The study used purposive sampling, which includes, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer (LGBTQ) and religious people. Purposive sampling is a form of non-probability sampling that deliberately selects participants based on specific characteristics and qualities [37,38] . The participants were chosen to represent specific group of people which can therefore give demographic-sensitive results [39] .…”

Discourse analysis on same-sex relationship through the lens of religious and social belief systems

Religious beliefs and systems have a profound impact on shaping individuals' attitudes towards same-sex relationships. There is a diverse range of perspectives within religious communities, with some individuals adhering to traditional teachings that condemn homosexuality, while others engage in a process of reinterpretation to support and accept same-sex relationships. This qualitative study aims to analyze the different perspectives about same-sex relationship from the lenses of religious and social belief systems. Purposive sampling was used to select the participants (n=16) who identify themselves as a member of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer (LGBTQ) community (n=5) and religious people (n=11). Findings indicated the complexity of religious influence on social issues and emphasizes the role of individual engagement with faith in either hindering or facilitating acceptance to same-sex relationship. People who are inclined to their religious faith tend to condemn same-sex relationship. Notably, this study observed different interpretations of people about their religion and faith. While others believed it is against God’s will to engage in same-sex relationship, others interpret their belief in more holistic and inclusive way. Nevertheless, this study underscored the importance of understanding the evolving societal attitudes and the role of religion in fostering social discussion, tolerance, and inclusivity within diverse religious communities and society at large.
