Psychological and pedagogical effects of the implementation of artificial intelligence technologies in educational practice
Abstract
Context and Relevance. In recent years, artificial intelligence technologies have become an integral part of educational processes across all levels, from primary to professional education. Their role has grown particularly significant in the post-pandemic period, when digitalization accelerated and the demand for new tools of personalization and learning support intensified. Objective. To identify the psycho-pedagogical effects and current trends in the application of AI technologies in education. Hypothesis. It was assumed that the use of AI in education can be classified into key domains, and that its integration would contribute to enhancing the efficiency and quality of learning through personalization and optimization of processes, while at the same time being associated with a range of risks. Methods and Materials. A systematic review was conducted of articles in English indexed in Web of Science, Scopus databases between 2005 and 2025. Only peer-reviewed publications were included, which ensured the rigor and reliability of the analysis. Results. Six key areas of AI application in education were identified: intelligent tutoring systems, educational robots, dialog agents, learning analytics, automated assessment, and administrative and career guidance systems. Most studies report positive effects such as improved academic performance, increased engagement, and higher levels of personalization. At the same time, a number of challenges were noted, including algorithmic bias, ethical issues, data privacy concerns, teacher resistance, and the risk of digital dependency. Conclusions. AI technologies are becoming a significant factor in the transformation of education, strengthening its adaptability and effectiveness. Their successful integration requires a responsible approach that addresses the emerging risks and challenges.
