Exploring the Role of AI in Enhancing Personalized Learning among College Students

This study looks at how Artificial Intelligence (AI) improves personalized learning for college students. It used a mixed-method approach with 300 students from three colleges. The findings show that students using AI performed better academically, with a mean GPA of 7.6 compared to 6.8 for those in traditional classes. AI personalization, engagement, and motivation accounted for 42% of the performance improvement. Qualitative insights revealed benefits like self-paced learning, better feedback, and increased confidence. However, there were also concerns about over-reliance and data privacy. The research concludes that AI significantly enhances learning outcomes and motivation, but it needs ethical oversight and faculty training for successful integration.
