Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) can address some of the most significant issues facing education today, innovate teaching and learning methods, and eventually quicken the fulfillment of SDG 4. However, these quick technological advancements carry with them several challenges that have thus far surpassed regulatory structures and policy discussions. The Education 2030 Agenda can be achieved with the help of AI technologies. AI has already been used in education, especially in various tools and assessment platforms that aid skill development. The goal is that as AI educational solutions continue to develop, they will help close gaps in learning and teaching and free up schools and teachers to accomplish more than before. To provide teachers the time and freedom to teach understanding and adaptability—uniquely human talents where computers would struggle— while AI can promote efficiency, personalization, and streamline administrative procedures. This chapter presents challenges and opportunities related to AI use in education and ends with recommendations.
