Abstract
The integration of Information Technologies into education has lately focused on implementing learning systems to enhance the educational experience through innovative teaching methodologies. The rise of Artificial Intelligence has enabled the development of advanced strategies and algorithms, catering to individual learning styles. However, implementing these innovative approaches requires teachers to learn during the design and structuring of course content. As an example of this we have Khipulearn, a learning platform based on Customised Adaptive Learning Model (CALM), that offers a personalized educational experience. It allows the teachers to structure knowledge into interconnected competences, forming a competence graph for learners to navigate. The platform also employs an AI algorithm to select activities based on learners’ characteristics and needs. We propose two tools for teachers to optimize course design on Khipulearn. The first tool, a shortest path viewer, helps identify critical competences, providing control over essential knowledge of the course. The second tool visualizes the number of activities required for each competence, aiding in improving the efficiency on an adaptive activity selection. These tools aim to streamline the design process, ensuring teachers can leverage CALM’s adaptability and personalization principles without hindrance on the Khipulearn platform.

Abstract
The irruption of ChatGPT has led to a technological change that could affect all sectors, concretely education. University students are facing this change, and the adoption of generative AI will be key to both their learning and job performance. This paper aims to study the adoption and evolution of generative AI among engineering students by analysing two surveys conducted in 2022 and 2023. The results show that engineering students are mostly aware and they are using generative AI tools. On the other hand, it has been studied whether gender can influence their adoption, and the results do not indicate significant changes. Regarding the evolution of the adoption of generative AI, a great change is shown, since it is being more used in all fields, also in education. This change indicates the attitude of engineering students to explore and take advantage of innovative tools, which can have a current and future impact on their learning and development.

Abstract
The introduction of ChatGPT in November 2022 represented a disruptive innovation, leading to a remarkable change in the technological paradigm. The boom in generative AI-based tools arrived, bringing about significant changes. In the world of education, these AI tools have a lot of potential: from acting as a virtual teacher and adapting learning to assisting teachers in performing routine tasks. However, there are also associated risks, such as the loss of critical thinking and interpersonal skills. Navigating this transformative landscape requires a careful balance between leveraging the benefits of AI tools and addressing the potential drawbacks, ensuring that education remains a holistic and enriching experience for students. Therefore, in this study we conducted a survey and an exploration of some Spanish conferences on teaching, with the aim of investigating the advantages of adopting AI in teaching. The results show that the possibilities offered by generative AI are promising for both students and teachers. For teachers, it can be useful as a support tool for the evaluation of certain activities, while students can use it as a support for drafting or summarising texts, among others.
