Abstract

The invasion of AI into classroom has reshaped the teaching, learning and assessment process. Even though integration of AI offer meaningful support to both teachers and students, they also raise important ethical concerns. This paper explores the impact of AI in the education system in teaching, learning and assessment process. Further this paper discusses the key challenges related to academic integrity, data privacy, bias and dishonesty. This paper draws attention to the potential effects of an excessive dependence on AI technologies on originality, critical thinking, and real-world learning opportunities. Additionally, the study highlights how unequal access to cutting-edge AI technology could exacerbate already-existing educational inequities. Based on the recent literature this study proposed some practical recommendations to promote ethical, transparent and responsible use of AI in the field of education. The paper concludes that thoughtful and ethically guided integration of AI will positively transform the education system.
