Book Title: Human-AI Interaction in Education and its Impacts on Learner Cognition Free of Charge

The primary objective of this book is to provide a comprehensive and theory-informed examination of how human-AI interaction influences learner cognition in formal, informal, and hybrid learning environments. The volume seeks to move beyond instrumental views of AI by analyzing how different forms of interaction with intelligent systems affect cognitive processes such as understanding, problem-solving, self-regulation, creativity, and critical thinking. Specifically, the book aims to bridge cognitive science, learning sciences, and educational technology research; offer empirically grounded insights into both opportunities and risks associated with AI-mediated cognition; propose conceptual frameworks that explain when, how, and for whom AI supports or constrains learning; and inform the design of cognitively responsible, human-centered AI systems in education.

Authors wishing to publish a chapter in this book must submit an extended version of their conference presentation to the Edited Book by following the relevant submission guidelines given in the Call for Chapters. The book project is currently in progress and is not limited to ICETOL 2026 submissions. All submitted chapters will undergo an editorial screening and peer-review process, and acceptance is not guaranteed.
