Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the education industry by personalizing learning, helping the instructors, and streamlining school administration. It helps students with numerous languages, helps the visually impaired children, and offers diverse testing environments. Although AI has a lot to give, data privacy concerns as well as rural connectivity levels need to be addressed. More here.

The Education System itself is changing at a rate that is mind-numbing, and one of the biggest factors for that is Artificial Intelligence (AI). Something that was some kind of tomorrow yesterday is being implemented in schools, colleges, and learning websites on a daily basis. Not only is AI helping the educational process in 2025 and thereafter, but it is also revolutionizing the manner in which we learn, teach, and design classrooms.

AI (Artificial Intelligence) is helping all kids to learn as individuals who are just right for them. Khan Academy's Khanmigo, for example, can modify the degree of difficulty of questions as the child learns based on what they respond to.

Embibe, an Indian app, offers practice questions, videos, and exercises customized to be for what the student is stuck on. Schools in America like ALT-School and learning programs like Gooru Learning help teenagers understand where they are doing it wrong and how to get it right, step by step. It is a form of smart learning that is referred to as hyper-personalised learning, and it is revolutionizing the way in which children are learning at an incredible pace. AI is a teaching assistant. It never replaces them but makes their job easier. In India, there are platforms like Teachmint and Scribetech which assist teachers in carrying out actions like attendance, classroom management, and report generation without any hassle. There is in America software called Century Tech that assists teachers in assessing the manner in which children are learning and then providing the concept of teaching them in a better way.

AI is enabling more children to learn and be learned about. Google's Read Along application is simplifying learning to read for rural Indian children in certain Indian languages. Duolingo-type apps are making learning any language fun for all humans on Earth. These AI applications are used in Japanese schools and the UAE to translate while the teacher talks.

This is easier for foreign students to comprehend. Visually challenged children in rural Karnataka are assisted by Microsoft AI tools through Kannada and English reading. This is easy for children to master who are unable to read well.

AI is transforming how we test and examine students. As an example, the GRE test today uses AI to make it easy to mark written answers quickly and fairly.

In India, Embibe not only verifies if a child has answered or not but also why he/she has answered so, i.e., hesitated or time taken.

Even the CBSE schools are employing AI to assess speaking English and writing skills and offering instant and useful feedback to the students.

AI is not merely about learning, but also makes school effective. An example of how Georgia State University in the US employs an AI assistant called Pounce is as follows. It answers questions from students and retains students at school.

In India, Manipal Academy deploys AI to arrange class hours, predict the number of students to be enrolled, and give support needed by the students. Podar International schools employ AI to update parents regarding attendance, homework, and exam dates so that parents won't be left behind.

While it's good, there are problems with AI. There have been some strict controls in Europe so that schools cannot utilize deceptive or unfair AI software.

India does have some data privacy concerns because there are so many students online. There is the Digital Personal Data Protection Act to protect students' data, but it needs to be actively enforced.

AI would not replace teachers but would help teachers in the future. AI is used in Finnish schools as well as project-based learning to encourage students and make their classes more interactive and engaging.

In India, AI classes have already started from Grade 8 under the CBSE board in collaboration with Intel. Some of the next-generation schools are also hiring AI Coaches to train students on how to leverage AI tools for maximum benefit in a safe and smart way.
