Pitfalls of AI Integration in Education: Skill Obsolescence, Misuse, and Bias

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in education rapidly transforms the teaching and learning process. Recent systematic reviews have shown an increase in research studying the opportunities and challenges associated with AI in education. This trend reflects a growing recognition of its potential to revolutionize educational practices. However, there are also growing concerns and issues with skill obsolescence leading to job displacement, algorithm bias, and misuse of AI for academic dishonesty. As educational institutions increasingly rely on AI to enhance academic outcomes, proactively addressing these challenges ensures the ethical and responsible use of AI in education. Pitfalls of AI Integration in Education: Skill Obsolescence, Misuse, and Bias offers a targeted exploration of the critical challenges and concerns that arise as AI becomes more embedded in educational systems. Focusing on emerging issues, it addresses the gaps in current research and practice, shedding light on the ethical, practical, and pedagogical dilemmas that educators, students, and institutions face. Covering topics such as school infrastructure, critical academic skills, and intellectual property protection, this book is an excellent resource for educators, school administrators, policymakers, professionals, researchers, academicians, and more.
