AI & Impact on Education, An Emperical Study on Student Perception in Higher Education Institution in Telangana
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Human Resources
Abstract
The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has begun to significantly transform the education sector, particularly within higher education institutions in Telangana. With increasing adoption of AI-based tools such as digital learning platforms, automated assessments, chatbots, and virtual classroom systems, students are experiencing new modes of learning. This study aims to examine student perceptions toward AI in higher education, focusing on their awareness, usage patterns, perceived benefits, and associated concerns. A descriptive research design was adopted, and data were collected from 200 students selected randomly from various colleges across Telangana. The findings reveal that a majority of students are aware of AI applications and frequently use AI tools for academic support, including assignments, research activities, and preparation for examinations. Many students believe that AI enhances personalized learning, improves engagement, and provides timely doubt clarification and continuous support. At the same time, some concerns were identified, such as reduced human interaction, overdependence on technology, and issues related to data privacy and transparency. The results indicate that while students recognize the usefulness of AI in improving academic efficiency, they do not view AI as a replacement for human teachers. Instead, they feel AI can complement teaching by delivering additional support. Differences in AI usage were also observed between urban and rural students, suggesting the presence of a digital divide. Overall, student perception of AI in Telangana?s higher education institutions remains largely positive, with a strong desire for formal training and structured integration of AI tools within the curriculum. The study concludes that AI holds significant potential to enhance educational practices, provided that institutions adopt responsible AI policies and offer adequate awareness on ethical and privacy aspects.
