• Provides a theoretical foundation and practical recommendations for the effective integration of AI in education.

Key Insights

This paper on artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) has two main goals: to explain what AIEd is and how it works, and to discuss its benefits for teaching and learning. AIEd involves computer systems that perform tasks like speech recognition and smart decision-making, similar to human abilities. The main goal is to make educational knowledge clear and precise, helping us understand learning in detail.AIEd is designed to support, not replace, teachers by offering personalized, flexible, and engaging learning experiences. Current AIEd tools provide one-on-one tutoring, support group learning, and create realistic virtual environments. Future developments will include AI-powered lifelong learning companions and real-time assessments.If successful, AIEd can help close achievement gaps and improve teacher retention, addressing the impact of job automation. Progress will require a flexible infrastructure similar to the app marketplace, with standardized AIEd components created with educators.Future AIEd development should focus on three areas: pedagogy (learning science), technology (effective AIEd products), and system change (involving teachers, students, and parents in design). By combining great teaching practices with advanced technology, AIEd can significantly enhance education. Achieving this will need new thinking, collaborations, and sensible funding, aiming for substantial educational benefits.
