AI-Based Tools in Mathematics Education: A Systematic Review of Characteristics, Applications, and Evaluation Methods

Abstract

Artificial intelligence has been utilized for enhancement of education. The paper describes the gradual influences of Natural language processing, ChatGPT and Intelligent Tutoring Systems in mathematical education in particular. A systematic review and briefing is targeted for budding researchers in the field of AI based education. A comparison of research with a brief summary is provided along with the analysis of the search. Future scope for the clear understanding and easy implementation of mathematics is aimed with development of the intelligent system with customized solutions to the difficulties faced by the learners of mathematics. The impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the applications in education has been evolving since the past 50+ years. The advent of Intelligent Tutoring Systems has emerged as a rich and important natural environment that deploys and improves AI algorithms. The review carried out shows ITS as an ever growing field for education comes with positive impact on education outcomes, effective increase in learning rates, increase in the learning levels of students and many such benefits. It also has its own challenges in creating authoring environments, making collaborative learning possible, world wide web deployment and creation of virtual reality environments to name a few. In this review paper we focus on the impact of applications that have been developed using NLP, ChatGPT and ITS as education technology.
