Machine Learning in Education: Enhancing Student Learning Outcomes

Abstract

Machine learning (ML) techniques have gained significant traction in enhancing educational outcomes by providing personalized learning experiences, predictive analytics, and improved assessment mechanisms. This article explores the various applications of machine learning in education, focusing on how these techniques improve student learning outcomes through adaptive learning platforms, intelligent tutoring systems, and data-driven decision-making. The article discusses several ML methods used in education, including supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. Furthermore, challenges such as data privacy, algorithmic bias, and the need for teacher training are also explored. By leveraging ML technologies, educators can better understand student behavior, optimize learning materials, and enhance overall learning environments.
