Background of the Study
Personalized learning, which tailors the educational experience to the needs, preferences, and abilities of individual students, has gained considerable attention in higher education (Johnson & Brown, 2023). Traditional university education often follows a one-size-fits-all approach, which can lead to varying levels of student engagement and academic success (Lee & Zhang, 2024). Adaptive learning platforms powered by artificial intelligence (AI) offer a promising solution to address these challenges by providing personalized educational experiences based on real-time data and continuous assessment of student progress (Tian & Liu, 2025).
Benue State University in Makurdi, Benue State, offers a suitable case study to explore the effectiveness of AI-based adaptive learning platforms in higher education. These platforms can track students' progress, analyze learning behaviors, and adjust content delivery in real-time to optimize the learning experience (Wang et al., 2023). By integrating AI technologies, Benue State University can enhance student learning outcomes, improve engagement, and support individualized academic pathways for its diverse student population.
Statement of the Problem
Benue State University faces challenges in delivering personalized learning experiences that meet the diverse needs of its student body. Traditional teaching methods often fail to accommodate the varying learning paces and styles of students, leading to disengagement and suboptimal academic performance (Roberts & Thompson, 2023). This study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of AI-based adaptive learning platforms in personalizing the educational experience for students at Benue State University.
Objectives of the Study
To assess the effectiveness of AI-based adaptive learning platforms in personalizing university education at Benue State University.
To evaluate the impact of adaptive learning on student engagement, academic performance, and retention.
To explore the potential benefits and challenges of implementing AI-based adaptive learning platforms at Benue State University.
