Abstract

Learning is a dynamic experience. We need to create learning experiences that assist all kinds of learners. Human beings have different patterns of learning. Assisted learning helps in decentralizing the learning experience in a more individualistic approach. Artificial Intelligence has helped in automating many tasks of administrative nature, evaluation and has even helped personalize learning, countering the problems of teacher exhaustion. Not just efficient grading use of AI through educational chatbots and applications can help in helping students get a 24/7 mentoring option which in a real-world scenario might be difficult for human teachers to cater to. With technology has come ease of global accessibility and insights that are backed by data. But it also brings along with it an enhanced scenario of digital divide, technological hurdle and inequality. The paper through case studies tries to analyze the scopes and problems of using Artificial Intelligence in Assisted Learning in Higher Education.
