Impact of AI on Virtual Learning: Self-Sufficiency and Academic Confidence in University Students
Resumen
This article examines the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on students' ability to work independently in online university courses. With the growing integration of AI tools in higher education, concerns have emerged regarding their influence on students' self-reliance in completing academic tasks. A survey of students at Central University of Ecuador was conducted to assess the use of AI tools and their perspectives on academic autonomy. The study employs both quantitative and qualitative methods to explore how AI can enhance personalized learning experiences, while also potentially fostering over-reliance, which may impair students' abilities to independently write and solve problems. Initial findings suggest a correlation between heavy dependence on AI and diminished confidence in task completion without technological aid. Preliminary results also indicate that while AI can enhance inclusivity and accessibility in education, it may simultaneously contribute to increased anxiety and social isolation.
