Education, Artificial Intelligence, and the Digital Age

Abstract

This paper aims to examine and elucidate the factors influencing the current educational model within the realms of artificial intelligence and the digital era. Additionally, it delves into an analysis of education models that leverage innovative learning tools to address the challenges faced by a society in a state of constant adaptation and change. The research methodology involves empirical research and an in-depth analysis of specialized scientific literature, encompassing both traditional and progressive educational models. Special attention is given to tools specific to the digital era, such as educational platforms, software, and recent advancements like ChatGPT. Expert opinions on these emerging learning tools were sought, and open questions were posed on ResearchGate to gather diverse perspectives. The findings underscore the significance of collaborative efforts between universities and industry, the necessity of adapting educational curricula to align with emerging job roles in the era of artificial intelligence, and the promotion and utilization of innovative tools in academic settings. This, in turn, aims to ensure the practical application of acquired knowledge in the economic landscape, fostering the development and sustainability of the economy and society on both local and global scales. The originality and value of this work lie in its contribution to identifying learning models from specialized literature, proposing a model tailored to our university education system, and emphasizing that artificial intelligence serves as a supportive resource in education. It optimizes processes without replacing the creative aspects of teaching staff, thereby contributing to the attainment of exceptional academic outcomes.
