In an era of technological advancement, traditional educational models are yielding to personalized learning, facilitated by artificial intelligence (AI). These AI-driven systems adapt to students' unique characteristics, preferences, and learning needs to enrich their educational experiences. Using a descriptive survey research design, the study surveyed 360 undergraduate students from the Department of Educational Technology. Data were collected through surveys and statistically analyzed mean and standard deviation. The research questions addressed the extent to which personalized AI-driven learning paths impact student engagement levels, the influence of personalized AI-driven learning paths on students perceived academic performance, and students' perceptions of the effectiveness of personalized AI-driven learning paths in enhancing their learning experience. The findings indicate that personalized AI-driven learning paths have a positive impact on student engagement and perceived academic performance. Students reported increased motivation, focus, and interest in course materials, coupled with improved interactions with content. Furthermore, the study establishes that personalized AI-driven learning paths are effective in enhancing academic performance. Students perceived these paths as crucial in achieving improved grades and exam scores, with many attributing their recent academic achievements to AI-driven personalization. Additionally, students expressed satisfaction with AI-driven platforms, highlighting user-friendly interfaces and timely feedback. These findings underscore AI-driven personalized learning's potential to revolutionize education by boosting student engagement and academic success. This research offers valuable insights for educational institutions seeking to harness AI-driven technologies to enhance student learning experiences.</p> AHMED Adedolapo Abdulahi, OYEYIPO Ademola Olakunle , BOLAJI Hameed Olalekan Copyright (c) 2024 AHMED Adedolapo Abdulahi, OYEYIPO Ademola Olakunle , BOLAJI Hameed Olalekan http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://ijitie.aitie.org.ng/index.php/ijitie/article/view/313 Thu, 19 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://ijitie.aitie.org.ng/index.php/ijitie/article/view/315 <p>There is a general low productivity in STEAM education as either a disintegrated or integrated construct. Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration has significant implications for improving productivity and efficiency in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) education in today's educational environment. This article explores the revolutionary potential of AI-driven approaches to upend traditional learning models and promote creativity in a range of STEAM education fields. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing STEAM education by tailoring content to individual needs and learning styles, enhancing comprehension and retention. AI-powered platforms provide adaptive learning experiences, automating administrative tasks and providing valuable insights into student progress. Virtual laboratories and simulations offer immersive learning experiences, fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills. AI-powered tutoring systems offer personalized support, promoting self-directed learning. AI also fosters interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation, allowing students to explore creative expression and extract insights from complex datasets. Integrating artificial intelligence for STEAM education efficiency is premised on constructivists’, behaviorists’, connectivity’ theories of learning and copious empirical evidence buttressed AI for STEAM education efficiency. However, widespread integration raises ethical and societal concerns, such as data privacy and equitable access to AI-driven resources. A holistic approach involving ethical guidelines, transparent algorithms, and inclusive pedagogical practices is needed to ensure AI technologies empower students and promote inclusive STEAM learning opportunities.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> ADESINA Abiodun Ezekiel., SHOTAYO Elizabeth Olusola Copyright (c) 2024 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://ijitie.aitie.org.ng/index.php/ijitie/article/view/315 Thu, 19 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000
