CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept; it is an active and transformative
force in various sectors, including education. Recent studies have shown that AI-powered
tools in classrooms have the potential to improve student engagement by personalizing
learning, providing immediate feedback, and offering interactive experiences. In fact,
research indicates that 90% of students who interact with AI-based educational tools report
increased motivation and engagement. This shift in educational practices is not just a trend; it
is a powerful tool that can redefine the learning experience, especially for digital-native
students.
Student engagement has always been a key determinant of academic success. However, in an
era where students are constantly surrounded by technology, traditional teaching methods
often fail to maintain their attention and interest. AI-powered educational tools provide a
solution to this challenge by offering tailored learning experiences that cater to each student’s
individual needs. By adapting content based on a student’s progress and challenges, AI not
only enhances learning outcomes but also keeps students motivated and involved.
Furthermore, AI tools can offer real-time assessments and feedback, enabling students to
track their progress and stay engaged in the learning process.
The importance of this study lies in understanding the ways in which AI can be utilized to
enhance student engagement, particularly among Grade 10 students, who are at a pivotal
point in their educational journey. This age group is transitioning from foundational learning
to more complex subjects, making it essential to maintain their interest and encourage active
participation. With the growing integration of AI in classrooms, it is critical to examine its
impact on students' academic experiences, especially in terms of engagement.
This research aims to explore how AI can play a role in improving student engagement
among Grade 10 students. Specifically, it will investigate how AI-based educational tools
influence students' motivation, involvement in class activities, and overall learning outcomes.
By analysing these effects, the study aims to provide valuable insights that can guide
educators, school administrators, and policymakers in integrating AI into teaching strategies
to enhance student engagement and academic success.

Background of the study
In recent years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed education by offering
personalized learning experiences, adaptive systems, and real-time feedback, making it a
valuable tool in enhancing student engagement. Engagement is a crucial factor for academic
success, especially for Grade 10 students who are transitioning to more complex learning.
Traditional teaching methods often struggle to maintain students' interest, but AI-based tools
can help bridge this gap by tailoring content to individual needs, increasing motivation, and
fostering active participation.
This research is important as it explores the role of AI in boosting engagement among Grade
10 students, providing insights that could guide educators in effectively incorporating AI to
improve student outcomes. As AI becomes more integrated into classrooms, understanding
its impact on engagement will help educators optimize teaching strategies and better support
students’ learning journeys.
