Angela Davies-Okarevu, a renowned educational technology consultant, emphasized the transformative power of artificial intelligence (AI) in global education.

She stated that AI-enabled adaptive learning is revolutionizing education in developed countries by providing personalized education tailored to individual student needs.

Davies-Okarevu noted that traditional teaching methods in Africa fall short of addressing diverse student needs, urging an upgrade to the educational system.

She explained that adaptive learning, powered by AI, continuously assesses student performance, identifies strengths and weaknesses, and adjusts the curriculum accordingly.She highlighted the profound impact of AI on students from diverse backgrounds, including those with learning disabilities, English language learners, and low-income households. AI-enabled adaptive learning builds confidence, fosters a growth mindset, and develops critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Davies-Okarevu called for collaboration among governments, curriculum developers, and stakeholders to integrate AI into Africa’s education system, envisioning a more inclusive and effective education where every student can reach their full potential.
