Abstract

The education field becomes more upgraded when it got integrated with the technology standing out from the barriers of the traditional classroom style of teaching. The pandemic has defined a new way of online learning that has paved a way to numerous applications of Generative artificial intelligence in making the learning and curriculum better. There are several ways to enhance the learning by personalizing and adopting creative methods that makes pedagogical shift in the field of education. It is very necessary to have advancements in teaching curriculum and make the learner more creative and self-dependent in learning. In this article we examine the various progresses that were and can be made in the field of education with integration of ai tools. It is always important to come of the boundaries and set new curriculums with the ongoing future of technology

Key words: Generative Artificial Intelligence, Personalized learning, Innovation, Shift personalized methods, ChatGPT Tools.

Introduction

Education is a fundamental sector in any society because it shapes the future generation; in the recent past, the education sector has been revolutionized by advancement in technology; generative AI is also part of this revolution. In recent years educational stakeholders have begun looking for new ways to improve the teaching and learning processes and generative AI applications have emerged as tools capable of personalizing education. These tools don’t only help in creating a personal learning environment but also help in generating ideas and analytics that are the key skills for learning in the 21st century. Therefore, examine of the possibilities of using generative AI in educational systems requires reflection upon the opportunities and risks of such application. Now, as we move on to focus on this aspect, one has to approach the issue of how these advanced technologies can not only complement the conventional approaches to learning that have traditionally been employed in classrooms and labs but also transform them, thus enabling the establishment of an open and evolving model of education that would fit a learner in today’s world.

Overview of Generative AI in education

AI technology’s appearance in the educational field in the form of generative models leads to bringing significant changes in the learning-teaching process.

learning methodologies. Due to the application of advanced computation, the mentioned tools can generate content, which can vary from specific education materials to games that are based on the learner’s pace. Not only does the teaching assisted by generative AI improve personalized approaches, but it also provides for the discriminant learning abilities and requirements to contribute to the integration of the classroom inclusive environment. Also, when it comes to curriculum development, the above tools can be employed by educators to enhance the design of lessons to entail the least employability when it comes to crafting current courses that are reshaped constantly depending on the learners’ response and performance indicators. Therefore, as shown in fig1, it can be said that the uses of generative AI are critical for work-related bureaucracy to be handled more efficiently and for instructors to focus on students and giving individual attention [1]. This continuous process makes generative AI as very essential in the improvement of achievement in education and learning processes.

The role of generative AI in personalized learning:

Using innovations, particularly in learning, as well as generative AI in this case, results in enhanced learner’s interest and enthusiasm. From the above discussion it has become clear that those conventional approaches to learning might not be very fascinating to the learners, and as such, many of them might end up performing dismally in their studies. Since, as noted earlier, generative AI can in fact execute various learning modes the kind of information it will be providing to its students will be dependent on what want the students to learn. It makes learning more real and interesting since the child have focus and extended span of attention. Autonomous generative learning capabilities of AI can analyse vast volumes of data to evaluate and reconsider special features of every learner, his or her talents, the deficits and peculiarities of the learning processes. [2]It also allows one to have machinable study regimes that are in synchronization with the advancement of a learner. As it is postulated earlier in the previous section, it becomes easier in this case to put in place the ways, means to attend to these needs that each student has for learning to be effective and enjoyable.[3]

Chat GPT and Gen AI tools

Since its launching in the late December 2022, ChatGPT has sparked many conversations on the educational field.[4] There are divergent opinions about its impact and value: as embracing the use of the AI tools for designing and developing learning experiences while at the same time expressing concern on the ripple effect and victims of the negative impact it may pose. The implication of this is that there requires the overlaps, differences and other types of thinking to be put into consideration each with a technology’s possibilities while on the other hand, insisting on the educational requirements. This position paper thus looks at ChatGPT from a bottom of perspective whereby it is seen as a tool developed by students in support of learning and transformation in college level education. Therefore, demonstrating the characteristics of ChatGPT explains the different aspects of effects and opportunities in students learning, curriculum and content, assessment, learning technologies in higher education. Finally, there are new trends in the educational research and theory.[5]

Conclusion

In conclusion, the incorporation of Generative AI tools in learning models, have had significant and revolutionized the field as a chance for developing and improving processes of teaching and learning. Consequently, such means allows for individualization of teaching and learning processes. The application of such technologies lets the needs of various students be met hence fostering equity in learning. Furthermore, AI-aided generation of individualized content and assessments is a great help in the educators’ practice enabling them to spend more hours on the urgent things like, critical pedagogy, and students. However, concerns regarding use of technological advancements relating to data must be dealt with a lot of precaution in order to avoid unethical usage. AI technologies in education require to be recognized as generative to embrace innovation in education while at the same time not losing focus on the following key areas.
