LEVERAGING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF MATHEMATICS EDUCATION

Abstract

This study explores the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in enhancing the quality of mathematics education and its implications for national security and sustainable development. Consequently, four hypotheses formulated were tested using a structured modified questionnaire validated through pilot survey to elicit responses from mathematics teachers, educational policymakers, and AI education experts purposefully via a mixed-methods approach, Quantitative data from the questionnaire were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics with SPSS, inferential statistics such as Correlation analysis and ANOVA was used to test the significance of the findings related to the hypotheses while qualitative data underwent thematic analysis. The findings revealed significant improvements in teaching effectiveness influenced by positive perceptions of AI tools among teachers, enhances student learning outcomes. Then, it was recommended among others that collaborative partnership among stakeholders should be encouraged to enhance AI based instructions in Mathematics.
