Abstract

The introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education is revolutionizing the The introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education is revolutionizing the personalization of learning, positioning it as a crucial tool for pedagogical progress. This article analyses how AI is transforming the field of education, facilitating the personalization of content and pedagogical strategies according to the individual needs of learners. Through a case study analysis in educational settings, the effects of AI on academic performance were explored, highlighting improvements in comprehension and retention of information. The study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design to evaluate the contribution of AI to educational inclusion by providing personalized support to students with special needs and learning difficulties, promoting a more equitable environment. The findings highlight that the integration of this tool in the classroom can enhance academic performance by providing learning experiences tailored to the characteristics of each student. However, challenges are identified that need to be addressed, such as data privacy and bias in the algorithms. The article concludes with recommendations for effective implementation of AI in education and considers ethical and social implications for ensuring responsible integration in education.
