AI-Powered Education: Exploring the Potential of Personalised Learning for Students' Needs in Indonesia Education

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) stands out as a relatively new yet rapidly expanding technological tool that is transforming the field of education. This paper examines the potential of Artificial Intelligence to assist students and teachers in personalised learning. The research methodology employed for this study is a literature review, providing an overview of the current knowledge on practical AI applications for personalised learning and insights into methodological developments in this research field. Based on the literature, the results of this research demonstrate that personalised learning effectively accommodates students' learning preferences and enhances academic performance. Therefore, it could significantly benefit students by accommodating their learning pace and style. In the Indonesian education system context, the integration of AI for personalised learning is already included in the Indonesia Artificial Intelligence National Plan framework. To support this plan, the authors employed a Personalized Learning Plan (PLP) to integrate AI into educational settings practically. However, a challenge in integrating AI into education for personalised learning is that course or class designers often pay insufficient attention to creating content that develops practical skills. This neglect of pedagogical and technical aspects has led students and teachers to perceive these systems as unresponsive to their learning preferences, fostering a sense of pessimism.
