The Use of Artificial Intelligence in Education

Abstract

Over the past few decades, there has been an increase in ongoing research into the use of artificial intelligence in education. The usage of artificial intelligence in educational institutions has grown during the past few years. This chapter examines how artificial intelligence is used in education. The establishment of inclusive learning environments, collaborative learning and research, social robots, student assessment, automated grading, recommender systems, and student performance prediction were identified to be the main applications of artificial intelligence in education. Lack of funding, lack of faith in the system, lack of portability of systems, infrastructure issues, ethical issues regarding data privacy and security, and a lack of experience were some of the difficulties noted. After that, the chapter included recommendations for infrastructure improvements, ICT policy changes at the national and institutional levels, curriculum revisions for teacher- and school-level preparation, and additional research.
