Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a booming technology that is a key engine of innovation and growth across all fields including education. The global AI in the education market is projected to reach $3.68 billion by 2023. The Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT) defines Education technology as ‘the research and ethical practice of supporting learning and enhancing performance by inventing, employing, and managing suitable technological processes and resources.’ Technology is transforming the classroom and leveraging AI can enhance the learning experience of students while improving the entire online education landscape. AI-powered EdTech firms are entering the traditional classroom setup of students and addressing the demand for individualized learning solutions that adjust to each student's learning needs and styles. The students can learn at their own pace and can get a personalized experience from these solutions. Chatbots based learning Many K-12 schools are choosing chatbot-based learning platforms with AI assistance, letting students learn and schedule fast. This helps in providing interactive e-learning and fun learning activities for students. AI has the potential to stimulate the online education market in India which is estimated to grow by $2.28 billion from 2021 to 2026. Indian EdTech companies are now creating digital platforms with AI-enabled intelligent instruction design to deliver learning, testing, and tutoring to students, through schools. The market share of AI in education is expected to reach $ 21.52 billion by 2028. Interactive learning By utilizing rich content, adaptive quizzes, live courses, and interactive gamified simulation training (GST), AI-based learning platforms can provide tailored training for both teachers and students. These platforms offer a recommendation engine, analytical dashboard, and AI-powered adaptive practices. There is no denying the fact that the instructors’ role in educational institutions is irreplaceable, and AI can better equip them to handle it efficiently. It automates administrative chores which will help teachers make better use of their time. The AI-based platform provides a detailed analysis of the students’ performances and teachers can provide their wards with remedial learning that can instantly improve their performance. An AI-powered individualized improvement plan will be developed based on the student's activities, strengths, and shortcomings throughout the learning process on the platform which will help close the gap between the student and the teacher. AI will help automate repetitive tasks like fee collection, preparation of timetables, admission, etc. making school management hassle-free and transparent. The study material approved by the teachers will allow students to learn anywhere, anytime. Democratizing education AI also has the potential to make quality education accessible to all by enabling smart content to reach a large population thereby blurring the rural-urban divide. Integrating technology with education enables educators to foster collaborative learning and create a dynamic classroom experience, with EdTech solutions democratizing education and revolutionizing the entire learning landscape. Many B2B and B2C EdTech firms are curating and customizing the content based on the learning curve of each learner, by making use of personalized content and performance tracking on the portal. AI-powered assessments adapt to the learning needs of every student by automatically generating questions on topics that are either more difficult or easy, based on the student’s responses to previous questions. Predictive analytics is a feature that can list out the strengths and weaknesses of students in different subjects and teachers can use this to recommend corrective measures. AI-powered platforms can also provide single window access to the personal and academic profile of a student along with assessment reports, academic reports, transfer certificates, and mark sheets.
