The use of AI to adjust the difficulty level and keep students engaged in learning through games
Abstract
With the advancement of Information Technology, many tools are being developed, especially in the field of education. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of them. This study aims to analyze the contributions of using games powered by AI, as a tool to personalize and engage learning, in Elementary and High School education, through a Systematic Literature Review. Studies have shown that there is a significant improvement in student learning and engagement with the use of AI in games. The cost of designing a game with AI and the prejudice regarding the use of games in the school environment are challenges to be faced.
