Systematic Review: Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Learning in Elementary and Secondary Schools

Abstract

This study examines the role of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) in school education and its advantages for learning in elementary and secondary school contexts.Education is an important activity for individuals, communities, and societies, while learning is recognizing patterns in the information we receive.The GAI enables a tailored approach to learning, enhancing engagement and motivation. Some previousstudies have examined the usage of GAI in academic establishments and its impact on students and teachers. This study usedthe PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) methodology.Journals and conference papers were determined to be the most popular types of manuscripts utilized to report results in response to our established research questions. The study shows that GAI is an effective tool,for improving educational practices and learning outcomes but does not improve skills. The findings indicate that additional research is required to achieve more conclusive results and completely comprehend its impact on teaching and learning processes. Additional research helps highlight the potential benefits and limitations of schools.
