Artificial Intelligence Helps Primary School Teachers to Plan and Execute Physics Classroom Experiments
Main Article Content
Abstract
The research claims that artificial intelligence technologies can help and direct primary school teachers in organising classroom experiments for physics instruction. Educators now have the potential to construct experimental projects that are entertaining and efficient, all while catering to their students’ many learning styles and capabilities. This is made possible by the availability of artificial intelligence technologies. The incorporation of artificial intelligence into educational settings may result in an improvement in the overall quality of teaching as well as an improvement in the scientific performance of students. The chance to improve the learning experience for both students and teachers is available to educators who do an in-depth study on artificial intelligence-driven teaching solutions. The research highlights how artificial intelligence can transform teaching approaches in elementary school, notably in the field of physics education within the context of primary school settings.
