Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) can revolutionize education in various ways, including personalized learning, intelligent instructional design, transformative assessment, innovative materials, and wearable assessment prediction. This paper studies the opportunities and challenges of implementing AI in education. The paper explores the potential benefits of AI, including how it can help teachers create customized curricula and provide individualized instruction for each student. The paper also discusses potential challenges to implementing AI in education, such as privacy concerns, algorithmic bias, and much more. It includes a review of the current literature on the topic and discusses case studies in which AI has been used in education. The study explores this intervention’s potential benefits and limitations and identifies areas for future research.
