INTEGRATING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) IN TEACHING AND LEARNING FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a promising technology that has the potential to change many facets of the educational ecosystem while playing a significant role in the actualization of the sustainable development goals (SDGs). The present status of artificial intelligence (AI) in educational management was examined and identified significant areas for emerging research initiatives. Unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) underpinned the study to showcase ways by which Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies can be adopted and used for teaching and learning for a sustainable future. With Nigeria being proactive to be the core center of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the continent of Africa, the study recommended the need for Africa to have a holistic Artificial Intelligence (AI) ecosystem that captures our African histories, perceptions, idiosyncrasies, languages, outlooks, nuances, non-westernizations, etc. The study is significant to educational management practice, society, and policy, and is theoretically based on a developing country perspective.
