Abstract:
This paper explores the transformative role of generative AI in enhancing constructivist learning, where students actively construct knowledge through meaningful experiences. By investigating the synergies between generative AI and constructivist learning, the study uncovers how AI fosters personalized educational experiences. The research underscores the profound influence of generative AI on constructivist learning, empowering students to become active, motivated, and lifelong learners by tailoring their education, fostering creativity and collaboration, and upholding ethical principles. The study advocates for the responsible and purposeful integration of generative AI, which would revolutionize education and prepare students for future challenges.
