AI as a Contrivance in Education Sector: Exploring Its Impending Impact on Students’ Performance

Abstract

With artificial intelligence (AI) acting as a moderator, the study's goal was to determine the factors impacting students' academic achievement in the education sector and predict their impact on students' academic performance. An analysis of descriptive statistics was applied to the data gathered for this investigation. Data was collected for this purpose during university opening day office hours using a questionnaire survey, and SPSS-20 was used for analysis. According to the coefficient summary, all factors' effects on students' performance are accurately reflected by the beta values of 5.340 and 2.603. The findings suggest that students' critical thinking abilities are considerably impacted by the employment of AI technologies in higher education. It also demonstrates how these tools help students reflect, analyze, and evaluate the material, which validates proposed hypothesis of this study. The findings bolster the study's validity and point future research efforts in the direction of a more comprehensive and equitable understanding of the potential applications of AI technology in educational settings.
