Abstract:
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education has ushered in a transformative era, redefining traditional teaching and learning methods. This review explores the multifaceted role of AI in education, with a particular focus on personalized learning and educational technology. The synergy between AI and education promises to address individualized needs, enhance student engagement, and optimize learning outcomes. Personalized learning, enabled by AI algorithms, tailors educational experiences to the unique needs, preferences, and pace of each student. This approach goes beyond a one-size-fits-all model, fostering a more inclusive and effective learning environment. The review delves into the diverse applications of AI-driven personalized learning, ranging from adaptive content delivery and real-time feedback to intelligent tutoring systems. It analyzes the impact of these technologies on student performance, highlighting the potential to narrow educational gaps and cater to diverse learning styles. Educational technology, powered by AI, extends beyond the classroom, encompassing online platforms, virtual reality, and interactive tools. The review explores the integration of AI in curriculum development, content creation, and assessment methods, offering insights into how these technologies augment the teaching and learning experience. Furthermore, the review examines the role of AI in automating administrative tasks, allowing educators to redirect their focus towards personalized instruction. Challenges and ethical considerations associated with the adoption of AI in education are also scrutinized. Privacy concerns, algorithmic biases, and the digital divide are discussed, emphasizing the importance of responsible AI implementation. The review underscores the need for collaborative efforts among educators, policymakers, and technologists to establish ethical guidelines and ensure the equitable distribution of AI-enhanced educational resources. This review provides a comprehensive examination of the evolving landscape of AI in education, with a spotlight on personalized learning and educational technology. As the symbiosis between AI and education continues to evolve, this synthesis of current research and trends aims to guide future developments, fostering an informed and progressive approach to the integration of AI in the educational sphere.
