Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming education systems worldwide, fuelling debate over the benefits and risks of its use. In the global context, AI is seen as a key tool for the development of Education 4.0, capable not only of optimising assessment and educational analytics but also of supporting teachers, expanding access to quality learning, and preparing learners for future professional scenarios.

One advantage of the spread of AI technologies in education is the ability to make education more student-centred. Current research shows that AI-driven learning systems improve student outcomes, increase engagement, and provide more accurate real-time identification of educational gaps. This makes such approaches not just a technological innovation, but a necessity for modern schools and universities, spreading adaptive learning technologies and contributing to a new round of personalised learning. Personalised learning is becoming one of the key innovations of our time.

However, the implementation of personalised learning based on AI is accompanied by a number of challenges, from pedagogical and psychological barriers to the need for ethical, transparent and responsible mechanisms for the use of technology. That is why research in AI and personalised learning is becoming increasingly important for both the academic community and practitioners, as it provides the scientific basis for innovative educational models that can meet the current and future needs of society.

This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances related to the use of artificial intelligence for personalised learning, including adaptive learning systems, educational data analytics, intelligent tutors, and innovative pedagogical approaches supported by technology. We consider contributions addressing the implementation of AI in personalisation of learning, shaping individual educational trajectories, improving teaching methods, increasing student engagement, and overcoming challenges and barriers associated with the AI of education systems.

Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:

  1. Using artificial intelligence for personalised learning.
  2. Adaptive and intelligent learning systems using AI technologies.
  3. AI technologies for shaping individual educational trajectories.
  4. Educational data analytics using AI.
  5. The role of AI in transforming pedagogical approaches and teacher and student functions.
  6. Inclusivity and accessibility of personalised learning in conditions of global inequality.
  7. Systemic and organisational strategies for implementing AI in an educational institution.
