AI Tools for Teaching-Learning Chemistry

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is quickly becoming ubiquitous, with applications in all spheres of life. The education sector is also not untouched, in fact students are now relying on AI tools for studying, doing homework, making assignments and reports, and preparing for exams. Teachers are also using AI tools to enhance classwork and assessments. The use of AI in chemistry education is rapidly growing and many AI tools are proving to be quite useful in this regard. However, chemistry being a vast subject with lots of concepts, laws, formulae, reactions, and applications, requires deep understanding and comprehension, which is a challenge for these tools as they are not always accurate and consistent in providing answers. The present chapter gives a brief account of the uses of AI in chemistry, with teaching-learning chemistry, in particular. It explores the advantages and disadvantages of using AI in cAbstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is quickly becoming ubiquitous, with applications in all spheres of life.
