Generative AI learning has brought new possibilities of personalized inquiry-based learning. This study examines the uses, issues, and guidelines of the current implementation of ChatGPT in science lessons of high school students in the Institute of applied Technology (IAT) in the United Arab Emirates. The study was conducted against a constructivist framework and based on Straussian Grounded Theory, and it involved semi-structured interviews with 15 science teachers, generating 1074 coded data segments. The five essential themes which appeared were: AI literacy and competency, curriculum alignment, policy and stakeholder coordination, infrastructure equity, and ethical AI use. The systemic obstacles to the broader use of ChatGPT were the inequalities in policies, inadequate training, and access that accompanied the innovative use of ChatGPT as teachers differentiated and assessed continuously. To fix this, the study suggests the use of the PRISM-AI Framework (Policy, Resources, Integration, Support, Monitoring), which is a multi-level framework and offers application strategies to students, teachers, schools, and ministries. The findings stress the importance of the standardized, ethical, and inclusive practices of AI according to the UAE National AI Strategy 2031. The present study contributes a contexted regionally, and practically applicable framework to guide the addition of AI in science education at the K-12 level and fill the gap between the innovation promise and classroom delivery.

The research focuses on the design, development, and evaluation of an e-learning modules tailored for mathematics teachers to acquire foundational vector drawing skills, highlighting their advantages over pixel-based images. The study examines the impact of e-learning modules on Mathematics teacher satisfaction and perceptions about how integrating vector drawings into math classrooms can enhance teaching strategies, student engagement, collaboration, and STEM learning. Six-unit e-learning modules were developed, covering document creation, grid adjustments, shape creation, image tracing, mathematical transformations, 3D illustrations, and vector generation using generative AI in Adobe Illustrator. The module was piloted with mathematics teachers in private schools in the UAE and evaluated using mixed-methods approach. The researcher developed an instrument based on SAMR and Microsoft 21st Century Learning Design (CLD) to measure the depth of technology integration and its pedagogical implications. Findings revealed moderately high teacher acceptance and a strong perception of the role of vector drawing in illustrations, which enhances student-centered learning. Additionally, teachers found it more suitable for interdisciplinary learning, thereby fostering 21st-century skills. While the clarity, relevance, and logical sequence of the modules positively influenced teacher satisfaction, challenges such as technical limitations, adaptability, and insufficient development time underscore the need for greater institutional support to sustain professional development programs for Math teachers that empower them with the effective technology that helps them create project-based learning and design-based learning.
