THE IMPACT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE-BASED
CHATBOTS ON STUDENTS' LEARNING OUTCOMES
Abstract. In the modern higher education environment, the rapid development of
digital technologies and the integration of generative artificial intelligence
into the learning process have become one of the main factors necessitating a
review of the content, organization and management mechanisms of education.
These technological changes have also created new opportunities for taking into
account the individual learning needs of students, personalizing learning
activities and assessing academic achievements. In this regard, artificial
intelligence-based chatbots (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, etc.)
are of particular importance among modern digital pedagogical tools in terms of
organizing a personalized learning environment, providing operational and
contextual feedback, providing academic support, stimulating problem-solving
activities, as well as developing critical, creative and research-oriented
thinking skills.
The article analyzes the theoretical, conceptual and pedagogical
foundations of the application of artificial intelligence-based chatbots in
higher education institutions, systematizes their potential to influence
students' learning outcomes and academic achievements. In addition, issues
related to academic integrity, ethical responsibility, data privacy and
information security arising from the integration of artificial intelligence
technologies into the higher education environment, as well as the risk of
addiction that may arise from excessive use of artificial intelligence tools,
are evaluated from a scientific and pedagogical perspective.
