Abstract
The main objective of my research is to find out how AI affects student’s education, how students
are using AI to improve their education, and whether AI is helping students or creating problems
for themselves. The study reveals that AI has gained significant attention in the educational sector,
with most participants acknowledging its usage. However, the findings also indicate that while AI
is widely utilized, most individuals only depend somewhat on it. This relationship between AI and
education says the evolving role of technology in improving educational fields suggests a balance
between students rather than an overreliance on AI tools and systems for educational purposes.

Introduction
Mainly students and teachers will benefit from my research findings. Students can understand
the potential benefits and risks of AI so, they can make the best decision for their betterment and
avoid the risks involving Artificial Intelligence. Teachers can use these research findings to
improve the learning experience. Also, they can gather more information about students’
perspectives on AI, which will help them to teach more effectively.

Background
According to Pedro , Subosa , Rivas , and Valverde (2019) starting from its inception during the
1956 Dartmouth Conference, the realm of artificial intelligence (AI) has consistently captivated
both individuals and industries. Few technological advancements in recent times have generated
as much controversy as AI. Despite having a history spanning nearly six decades, AI remained on
the fringes until very recently. This transformation, often called "the big leap," was driven by
significant changes, including the availability of vast amounts of data (big data), more affordable
access to computational power, and strides made in Machine Learning. According to Pedro ,
Subosa , Rivas , and Valverde (2019), Only a few years after the invention of AI, in 1959, Arthur
Samuel created the phrase "machine learning," characterizing the idea as "the ability to learn
without being explicitly programmed." Machine learning is fundamentally just a method for
achieving AI. It is crucial to note that artificial intelligence (AI) can be created without the use of
machine learning, but doing so would entail writing millions of lines of code with intricate rules
and decision trees.. Additionally, concepts like machine learning and learning analytics are
explored, highlighting how these technologies synergize. It's worth noting that these terms are
occasionally used interchangeably in news and articles, leading to confusion. The landscape of
work, lifestyle, communication, education, and recreation is undergoing transformation due to
digitalization and artificial intelligence (AI). Individuals, whether consciously or not, are
increasingly coming into contact with advanced technologies like AI in their day-to-day
experiences. This includes activities as varied as seeking a loan or scrolling through social media,
some of which could profoundly shape their lives. As we progress two decades into the twenty-
first century, numerous professions are feeling the impact of human innovation and
resourcefulness, enabling the extraction of value from novel technologies. National policies are
progressively centering around AI, integrating it into and affecting sectors such as industry,
agriculture, services, value chains, and workplace structures. While AI holds the promise of
enhancing the quality of life, it also introduces vital concerns related to policies, ethics, and society.
These encompass matters like job generation and the potential for job obsolescence. AI stands as
a source of societal and political tension, with the potential to exacerbate disparities within and
between nations.
According to Anonymous (2023), The history of AI in education (AIED) can be traced back to
the early 1950s, when Alan Turing published his paper, "Computing Machinery and Intelligence."
In this paper, Turing proposed the Turing test, which is a test of a machine's ability to exhibit
intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human. According to
Anonymous (2023) The first AIED system was developed in 1960 by Patrick Suppes and Richard
Atkinson. This system called the Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI) system, was designed to
teach students basic arithmetic.

In the 1980s, AIED research began to focus on using artificial neural networks to develop
learning systems. Artificial neural networks are inspired by the structure and function of the human
brain. They can be used to recognize patterns and make predictions. Neural networks have been
used to develop a variety of AIED systems, including systems that can grade essays, diagnose
learning disabilities, and recommend personalized learning paths.
In the 1990s, AIED research began to focus on using large language models to develop natural
language processing (NLP) systems. NLP systems can be used to understand and generate human
language. NLP systems have been used to develop a variety of AIED systems, including systems
that can answer students' questions, provide feedback, and generate personalized learning content.
In the 2000s, AIED research began to focus on using big data to develop personalized learning
systems. Personalized learning systems can tailor instruction to the individual needs of each
student. Big data analytics can be used to collect and analyze data about students' learning to
identify patterns and trends that can help improve instruction.
The field of AIED is still relatively new, but it has the potential to revolutionize education. AI-
powered educational technologies can help to personalize learning, provide real-time feedback,
and make education more accessible to everyone.
Here are some of the specific ways that AI is being used in education today:
Research Questions
In my research, I plan to investigate if there is any influence of AI on student’s education. My
research addresses the following research questions:
1. How can we ensure the benefits of the usuage of AI for all students?
2. Does students consider ethical aspects while using AI?
3. What are the level of benefits of using AI to students on their education?
4. What is the quality of information AI gives to students?
5. How much dependant has students became due to AI?
6. Does students takes plagiarism seriously?
8|Page
Hypothesis
From my research, I expect to find that all students gets their satisfied level of benefits from AI
because I believe that AI has an enormous amount of data so it can help all types of students , also
I expect that students are less likely to focus on ethical aspects. I expect that students get high level
of benefits from AI. I believe that students gets very good quality of feedback from AI because AI
has enormous amount of data in his database. I also believe that majority of students has become
dependant on AI because students can get mostly all answers of their questions on one click. I
believe that most of the students does not take plagiarism seriously.

Methodology.
For my Primary research, I planned to do two types of primary researches. Firstly, Survey. In
order to understand students perspective I planned to create a online forum using Google Forms.
Using this, I will send this form to students from different educational backgrounds like school,
College, University, and Graduated. This form will contain open ended and close ended questions
to understand the opinions of students regarding the effects of Artificial Intelligence on their
education. Secondly, Interview. In order to understand student’s situation in depth, I will take an
interview of a teacher, who is one of the reputated faculty of an IGCSE and IAL preparation
coaching center named Institute of British Collegiate. I will ask him 5 questions regarding
Artificial Intelligent’s impact on education.
For my secondary research, I'll use my university's library to find books and journals that can
help with my study. I'll also search online for good websites, articles, and news. I want to find
research papers that are similar to mine for references.

Secondly, Secondary research findings. We also used secondary research findings to gather
knowledge regarding our topic. We used many articles to understand the impact of Artificial
Intelligence in depth. We used articles like “Artificial Intelligence in Education: Challenges and
Opportunities for sustainable development” from this article we got to know that, The most
effective AI systems are mainly designed to support teachers and students, rather than replace
them. AI is very effective if it is used to personalize the learning experience, provide feedback to
students, and help teachers in their teaching. It is essential to make sure that AI systems used in
education are ethically used and transparent in their operation. From this we also got to know some
datas they are:
in detailed through AI, also they can make creative ways to deliver knowledge to students by
creating creative worksheets and notes. He also said that, teacher should start integrating AI in
their teachings, they can start by knowing the basics of AI, at first stage they should start with the
simple tasks which will help them to learn the AI and its capabilities so, also they can learn about
AI from many platforms like Youtube, etc due to advancement of technology it has became easier
to learn things.
In conclusion, AI has created lots of opportunities in both learning and teaching but also created
lots of constrains. In this summary of findings we have used Survey, Secondary research findings,
and Interview to understand impacts of AI in depth.
18 | P a g e
Recommendations
AI has done such marvellous job that it shaped many nature of the industries. AI has pulled off
many creative ways to take education to next level, But also it bring some risks for example it
might hamper students creative thinking strength, We have gathered various kinds of data related
to impact of AI on education. We have studid those datas and we think that students and teachers
should take some steps to minimize the negative impact created by Artificial Intelligence.
According to MD Anwar Hossain Sawon, students should be taught to understand the ethical
aspects related to plagiarism and other aspects, also students should be thought to use proper
citation. Based on the results of our survey we found out that students are not serious in maintaining
a balance between their own work and using AI so its high time that students should focus on this
topic or else it might lead them to overly dependent on Artificial Intelligence. From secondary
research findings we understood that AI is mainly created to help people to make their life easier,
not to replace them. With all the data we can conclude to one thing that AI can make our life easier
if we know how to effectively use it.
19 | P a g e
Conclusion
In conclusion, the influence of artificial intelligence on education is a topic of many aspects. It
has the ability to reshape the entire educational landscape in many ways. This transformation will
impact the education sector in both positive and negative aspects. In survey, We saw that majority
of people find AI very useful, also we got to know that majority of people are not very dependant
on artificial intelligence also students are concerned about the ethical aspects of using AI which is
a very good note for the future. In interview, we understand that it is very important to educate
students about ethical aspects of using data taken from online. It is also essential that teachers
should adapt the changes made by AI to enhance the teaching experience.

Introduction
Influences of artificial intelligence on education refer to the effects of artificial intelligence on
students' education. This represents how AI is helping students in their education, and the
influences of AI on student's knowledge. It also represents how AI is degrading students in
decision-making skills.
My research will focus on the level of students’ dependency on Ai for their educational purposes,
how AI can be used to personalize learning for students based on their individual learning styles
and needs, and how AI helps students to learn new things. My research will also focus on whether
students copy the exact data from AI or use the knowledge to make their own version. We will
also get to know how AI is making students weaker in decision-making skills. My research will
also focus on is students use proper referencing and citation methods to give credit to the rightful
owner for the data they get from AI.
Research question
In my research, I plan to investigate the influences of artificial intelligence on education. My
research will address the following research questions.
• How can we ensure the benefits of the usage of artificial intelligence for all students?
• What are the ethical considerations for using artificial intelligence in education?
• What are the benefits of using AI for students in their education?
• What is the quality of feedback the AI gives to students based on their work?
• How dependent have students become on artificial intelligence?
• Do students use proper referencing and citation methods to cite their sources?
Hypothesis
From my research, I expect to find that all students get equal benefits from artificial intelligence
because I believe that artificial intelligence has an enormous amount of potential to provide large
amounts of data so it can help all types of students, also I expect that students are less likely to
focus on ethical aspects because over;y dependant of AI has made students weaker in knowledge
22 | P a g e
so instead of gathering knowledge they just use the easy way which is copy and pasting data also
AI helps students in many ways to make educations more efficient. I also believe that AI has made
students very dependent on them because students can get mainly all the information in one click.
Research Methodology
For my primary research, I will survey a representative sampling of students from different
educational positions and interview a teacher at a university/ A-level/ O-level who has an idea of
the impact of AI on education. I will design a questionnaire with different questions to get helpful
information for my research.
For my secondary research, I will collect data from the library. Also, I will collect data from books
and articles related to AI, browse the internet, and collect data from search engines like Google.
Organization
My paper will be divided into many sections. Some of the important ones are Introduction,
Background, data presentation and analysis, and summary of findings. Within the sections, my
organization will be based on my research questions.
Timeline
I will complete my survey and interview by the end of September and my research works by the
middle of October. I shall finish writing the final draft of my research paper by the end of October
and submit it by the specific deadline towards the end of this semester.
Please accept my request for your approval of my study proposal. Please suggest any changes that
need to be made to my research paper to make it look decent. I'll take note of the advice and submit
it after making the required adjustments. In order to make my research paper more efficient, I
would appreciate your suggestions and guidance.

Ans: AI can improve students' educational experiences in many ways. For example, with
AI, personalised learning experiences, Creating intelligent tutoring programmes for
customised support and direction. AI can analyse data on student learning, which may be
used to spot trends and patterns and create interventions and strategies to enhance student
outcomes. Some of AI examples are DreamBox Learning for maths tutoring system that
uses AI. It gives students personalized lessons and feedback. Also Duolingo is a good
example of AI creates customize the learning process for student. This app provides
personalized advice and suggestions.
2. Can you share your thoughts on the potential ethical considerations and challenges
related to the use of AI?
Ans: ethical considerations and challenges from AI are since AI doesn’t know the
background of the students so AI might make discrimination and biases, also AI might
make decisions about students' education without their choice or preference, also AI might
collect students data without their permission.
4. What are some practical ways in which AI can be integrated into the classroom to
enhance learning experience for students?
Ans: AI can make teaching very effective by making their resources more in detailed
through AI, also they can make creative designs or worksheets and notes.
5. What skills and knowledges teachers need to have in order to use AI effectively?
Ans:, Teachers should know the basics of AI, so they should start with the simple tasks ,
also Youtube and other platforms can help them to learn AI and its implications very easily.
