Influence of COVID and AI on Teaching and Learning

Abstract

The evolution of COVID resulted in lockdown, which led to utilization of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for education. Before, COVID's use of AI was limited and people were skeptical, COVID opened the debate again for the inclusion of AI in education. In this paper, the potential benefits and demerits of AI are discussed. A survey is also conducted on a group of students to determine whether the utilization of AI is better or physical (face-to-face) learning approach is more efficient. The survey is conducted on a group of engineering students for understanding concepts of Communication Engineering. The survey included students' performance, their understanding, working or non-working, improvement in understanding with the help of graphics, improvement in writing skills, test preparation, assessment, and feedback on demerits.
