The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Formal and Informal Education for Students

Abstract

Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the field of online learning by providing personalized and efficient learning experiences for students. AI-powered online learning platforms can analyze data on students’ learning styles, preferences, progress, and performance, and use this information to tailor the curriculum, content, feedback, and support for each student. AI can also enhance the engagement and interaction of online learners by using chat bots, virtual assistants, and intelligent content recommendations. According to a report by eLearning Industry 1 , AI is expected to grow by 48% in the eLearning market by 2024, reaching a value of $3.68 billion. Some of the factors driving this growth are the increasing demand for personalized learning, the availability of big data and cloud computing, and the advancement of AI technologies. However, there are also some challenges and limitations that need to be addressed, such as the ethical, legal, and social implications of AI, the quality and reliability of AI systems, and the need for human oversight and intervention. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize the way we teach and learn, making education more personalized, efficient, and effective. In this paper, we explore the role of AI in both formal and informal education for students. The fundamental goal of AI research includes the representation of knowledge, reasoning, planning, learning and processing, and the capability to use objects [2].We discuss the benefits and challenges of implementing AI in education and provide examples of how AI is being used in education today
