Abstract

In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has gained significant attention in the education sector in Malaysia. With the rapid advancement of technology, school administrators are recognizing the potential of AI to improve student learning outcomes and streamline administrative processes. In this narrative overview, we will discuss some of the AI trends in education that are currently being implemented or considered by school administrators in Malaysia. The awareness of the importance of digital learning are very much needed to be emphasize because without it, students will be left behind in terms of education. The main objective of this research is to identify the prospective impact of artificial technologies among school administrators in Malaysian schools with personalized learning, chatbots, predictive analytics, intelligent tutoring systems, and automated grading. This study also conducted to examine the level of competence of school administrators on the technology management and instructional technology using artificial technologies.  The respondents of this study consisted of 40 secondary schools from Malaysia. Using the method of questionnaire survey and interview this study takes the entire education system of Malaysia as an example to explore the effect of AI on role cognition in the education system to streamline administrative processes. The findings of the study show that the level of competence among school administrators in technology management and instructional technology in leveraging AI to improve student outcomes and streamline administrative processes to the study process and to predict possible changes in educational landscape is at a moderate level. Therefore, school administrators need to give their full commitment to the use of instructional technology in order to increase productivity in teaching and learning as well as school management with the impact of artificial intelligence. This research will provide appropriate knowledge for all school administrators to adopt technology leadership features to enhance the school administration system and teacher teaching implementation at a higher level.
