Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have been implemented successfully in many industries, from virtual hospital assistants to algorithm-based warehouse processing. And now that Covid-19 has forced students and teachers to transition to online or hybrid learning, these technologies could offer new and exciting possibilities for education as well. By incorporating AI and machine learning tools into online classrooms, educators can address many of the challenges that have emerged with the recent loss of face-to-face instruction, including the struggle for students to self-regulate their learning, the burden of curriculum planning and administrative work for teachers, and the loss of personalized interaction between students and teachers. This chapter will explore some of the AI technologies that have been used in educational contexts and describe applications of AI in other industries that could be adapted to create more personalized, flexible, inclusive, and engaging learning experiences. If the future of education is going to include online learning as a substantial component, then AI could be the key to maintaining high levels of motivation and engagement from students and teachers alike.
