Abstract

The paper "Empowering Diverse Learners: The Role of AI in Inclusive Education” examines how Artificial Intelligence can amplify the difference in education for persons with a disability. This study explores what AI has to offer in effectively offering transformative possibilities concerning such situations. Traditional education systems also fail to give equal chances to all students leaving the majority of them with some form of disability almost physically, instructionally, and socio-emotionally impaired. These are artificial intelligence tools, the speech recognition and synthesis converting speech to text or text to voice, intelligent tutor systems, intelligent environments, how students can engage with content in their learning could be redesigned. The present paper draws from very vivid examples of case studies showing successful incorporations of AI in diverse learning contexts that yielded enhanced learning results and student’s engagement. Finally, the issues of ethics in the usage of AI were described including data protection and algorithm fairness. Additional policy recommendations help to provide that AI technologies have the same access to schools as well as practical application. However, AI can also be employed by educators to create better learning environment and design the learning processes that could lead to that future in which each learner can succeed.
