10 Student perception of the implication of ai in university and its impacts on education

Abstract

Abstract – Despite its emergence since the 1950s, recent years have witnessed artificial intelligence (AI)’s significant development in numerous fields, including university education. As can be inferred from many applications available nowadays, talking of students, AI has a large capacity of maximising the effectiveness of studying by personalising learning methods to meet different students’ needs, generalising immediate feedback and automating routine administrative duties. Regarding teachers, AI may offer them assistance in the grading process, allowing them to dedicate more time and effort to planning and delivering lessons with high quality. This study examines its role in education at college level through the analysis of many education-related aspects, such as teaching and learning, assessment and grading, ethical concerns, demand skills and thereby evaluates AI’s influences on graduate students’ prospective professions. In order to achieve this goal, qualitative-design research is utilised to collect data from university students through interviews. The outcomes of this research shows the significance of AI in the educational environment, especially higher education level. Besides, the investigation highlights the importance of ethically integrating AI in the classroom environment.
