Background of the Study
Advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and 3D visualization technologies are rapidly transforming science education by providing immersive and interactive learning experiences. In Maiduguri, Borno State, traditional teaching methods in science often fall short in conveying complex scientific phenomena, leading to gaps in comprehension among students. AI-powered 3D visualizations offer a solution by generating dynamic, three-dimensional models that illustrate abstract scientific concepts with remarkable clarity (Abubakar, 2023). These visualizations facilitate a deeper understanding of topics such as molecular structures, physical forces, and astronomical phenomena by allowing students to interact with and manipulate digital models in real time. Such interactive learning experiences can bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, making science education more engaging and effective (Olawale, 2024). Moreover, the integration of AI in generating these visualizations ensures that the content is continuously updated and customized to suit various learning styles, thereby catering to a diverse student population. The technology also enables educators to provide personalized learning experiences and instant feedback, which are critical for reinforcing scientific concepts. By incorporating AI-powered 3D visualizations into the science curriculum, educational institutions in Maiduguri can create a more stimulating and supportive learning environment that promotes critical thinking and problem-solving skills (Chinwe, 2025). This study aims to evaluate the impact of AI-generated 3D visualizations on students’ understanding of scientific principles and overall academic performance. It will examine how these advanced tools compare with traditional teaching methods and explore the potential barriers to their implementation in local schools.
Statement of the Problem
Science education in Maiduguri has traditionally been challenged by the abstract nature of its concepts and the limitations of conventional teaching methods. Many students struggle to visualize and internalize complex scientific phenomena when taught through static textbooks and two-dimensional diagrams. This limitation often leads to reduced engagement, lower comprehension, and poor performance in science subjects (Ibrahim, 2023). Although AI-powered 3D visualizations offer an innovative approach to overcome these challenges, their implementation in local educational institutions remains minimal due to high costs, limited technical expertise, and infrastructural constraints. There is a significant gap in empirical research evaluating the effectiveness of these advanced tools in enhancing science education in the region. Furthermore, without a clear understanding of the potential obstacles, policymakers and educators may be hesitant to adopt such technologies. This study seeks to address these issues by assessing the impact of AI-generated 3D visualizations on science learning outcomes. It will identify the benefits and challenges associated with their use, comparing the results with traditional teaching methods. By evaluating the effectiveness of these visualizations in improving conceptual understanding and student engagement, the study aims to provide actionable insights and recommendations for broader adoption in Maiduguri’s educational system.
