Artificial intelligence (AI) in education involves the application of AI technologies within the classroom and educational administration to enhance teaching and learning practices and address educational challenges. The primary objective of incorporating artificial intelligence in education is to improve student learning outcomes while automating administrative tasks that traditionally require significant time from teachers and administrators.
The main components of artificial intelligence (AI) in education are categorized into solutions and services. AI solution components utilize artificial intelligence to automate, assist, or customize processes by making predictions based on the user's context or needs. These solutions leverage technologies such as natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning. They can be deployed in both cloud and on-premises infrastructure. AI in education is applied across various applications, including learning platforms and virtual facilitators, intelligent tutoring systems (ITS), smart content, fraud and risk management, among others. These solutions find application in different educational settings, such as K-12 education, higher education, corporate training, and learning.
