Exploring the Role of Artificial Intelligence on Academic Performance Among Pupil Under Secondary School Students of Paschim Medinipur District in West Bengal.

Abstract

This research investigates how artificial intelligence (AI) affects the academic performance of secondary school students in the Paschim Medinipur district of West Bengal. It delves into students' views on AI tools, particularly their influence on academic results, comprehension of complex topics, motivation, confidence, and future aspirations. By employing a structured questionnaire given to 200 students, the study finds a strong consensus that AI boosts overall academic performance, notably through personalized learning, formative feedback, and increased efficiency. However, students exhibit more reserved opinions regarding AI's direct impact on exam scores and its varied effects on motivation. The results highlight AI's importance as a supportive educational resource that promotes customized learning experiences and practical academic support, while also pointing out areas for further enhancement to fully leverage its advantages in secondary education (Ali et al., 2025).
