The Role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Personalized Learning: A Case Study in K-12 Education

    This study investigated the mediating role of artificial intelligence (AI) in intensifying personalized learning in K-12 education by employing qualitative case research. The study examines how an AI deployed within a K-12 school changes the engagement, academic performance, and role of teachers through its implementation. Results show that AI tools lead to large improvements in student achievement through personalized learning paths, increased engagement, and the immediacy of feedback. Nevertheless, challenges including data privacy ponderings and the digital gap are significant insights for educators to consider as well. The report suggests guidelines for policymakers and practitioners to ensure the productive application of AI in personalized learning, including equal access to technology and continuous teacher upskilling.
