Subclaims¶

q3 i? 75% of AI-SRL studies implemented AI as an intervention to support student learning; among the four implementation categories, adaptive systems and personalization was most frequent (41%, N = 35), followed by profiling and prediction (38%, N = 32), intelligent tutoring systems (33%, N = 28), and assessment and evaluation (three studies). → Banihashem 2025

Classification of the 84 studies using the Bond et al. (2024) typology found "AI was implemented primarily as an intervention to support student learning (75%, N = 63)". Adaptive systems and personalization subdivided into chatbots/GenAI/NLP (N = 15), dashboards/automatic feedback (N = 11), facial/mood recognition (N = 5), recommender systems (N = 4), and writing support systems (N = 3).

"AI was implemented primarily as an intervention to support student learning (75%, N = 63)"
