Transforming Higher Education: Psychological and Sociological Perspective (the use of artificial intelligence)

Abstract

The present paper aims to analyse the growing importance of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education and its impact on students from a psychological and sociological perspective. With the growth of technological tools and data analytics in education, AI offers new opportunities for personalising instruction and improving student outcomes. From a psychological perspective, relevant topics include how AI affects students' motivation, self-control, and learning strategies. The sociological perspective focuses on the transformation of social interactions between students and educators and on the limits of accessibility to higher education through digitalisation. The ethical and social challenges associated with using AI in education and its potential impact on access to higher education inequalities are also discussed. The article seeks to contribute to a deeper understanding of the transformation of higher education and highlight the need for a multidisciplinary approach to this complex topic.
