Systematic Review of Artificial Intelligence in Education: Trends, Benefits, and Challenges
Open accessAbstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing how we teach and learn, generating excitement and concern about its potential to transform education. To contribute to the debate, this systematic literature review examines current research trends (publication year, country of study, publication journal, education level, education field, and AI type), as well as the benefits and challenges of integrating AI into education. This review analyzed 155 peer-reviewed empirical studies published between 2015 and 2025. The review reveals a significant increase in research activity since 2022, reflecting the impact of generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT. Studies highlight a range of benefits, including enhanced learning outcomes, personalized instruction, and increased student motivation. However, there are challenges to overcome, such as students’ ethical use of AI, teachers’ resistance to using AI systems, and the digital dependency these systems can generate. These findings show AI’s potential to enhance education; however, its success depends on careful implementation and collaboration among educators, researchers, and policymakers to ensure meaningful and equitable outcomes.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This systematic review synthesizes 155 peer-reviewed empirical studies on AI in education, reporting a sharp rise in research since 2022 and especially 2023, alongside benefits such as enhanced learning outcomes, personalized instruction, and motivation. It also identifies persistent challenges including ethical concerns, teacher resistance, and digital dependency, concluding that AI’s success depends on careful, equitable implementation.
Key findings
- Research activity increased markedly: publication counts rose from 2 studies in 2015 to 35 in 2023 and 54 in 2024, with the paper linking the spike to generative AI tools such as ChatGPT.
- Most studies focused on higher education (97 studies), followed by secondary education (26), primary education (20), and teachers (12); language learning was the most represented education field (40 studies), followed by ICT (25) and science education (22).
- Benefits were grouped into 22 types across cognitive, personal, social, and teacher categories; AI was predominantly associated with cognitive and personal gains, especially enhanced learning outcomes, personalized instruction, and increased student motivation.
- Challenges were grouped into 16 types; the most frequently reported were ethical concerns (23 studies, 14.8%), teacher resistance (19, 12.3%), digital dependence (17, 11.0%), technical difficulties (10, 6.5%), and increased anxiety (9, 5.8%).
- Studies were conducted in 35 countries, with Asian nations—particularly China and Taiwan—and the United States dominating; Latin America and Africa were relatively absent. The reviewed studies appeared across 37 indexed journals, with *Computers & Education* most prominent.
Methods
- The review followed PRISMA and Kitchenham and Charters’ three-step process: planning, conducting, and reporting. Searches were run in Web of Science, Scopus, and Taylor & Francis using a defined AI/education/empirical-study search string, completed on 1 July 2025, yielding 3,406 potential studies; backward citation searching added 435.
- After removing 1,838 duplicates, 2,003 studies were screened by title, abstract, and keywords; 1,432 were excluded, 571 were assessed against inclusion/exclusion criteria, and 155 studies remained for final analysis.
- Data extraction covered title, authors, year, country, journal, education level, education field, AI type, benefits, and challenges. Thematic analysis used inductive coding in Microsoft Excel, with independent coding by two authors and disagreements resolved by the first author; Cohen’s Kappa was 0.89. Education levels and fields were standardized using ISCED.
Limitations
- The paper states that grey literature such as conference papers, dissertations, and policy reports was excluded, potentially omitting emerging or context-specific insights; it also states that it does not deeply explore how AI applications align with specific pedagogical models or teaching strategies, nor does it thoroughly examine long-term consequences such as changes in teacher roles, student autonomy, or institutional policies.
- The paper states that it did not apply a formal framework to assess certainty of evidence; confidence varies by theme, with cognitive and motivational benefits showing moderate to high confidence, while digital overdependence and ethical risks showed lower confidence due to less consistent reporting.
- Evident from the text: the abstract and methods report 155 studies published between 2015 and 2025, while the conclusion reports 132 empirical studies published between 2015 and 2024, an inconsistency in the reported sample size and date range.

“However, the central boundary condition is that learning benefits depend on how learners interact with mediation—when students engage with AI outputs by questioning, comparing drafts, rejecting or adapting suggestions, and justifying compositional choices, the interaction constitutes active mediated learning rather than passive text transfer (Garzón et al., 2025; Ilgun Dibek et al., 2025).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
