The Impact of AI and LMS Integration on the Future of Higher Education: Opportunities, Challenges, and Strategies for Transformation
Open accessAbstract
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and learning management systems (LMS) is revolutionising higher education, offering unprecedented opportunities for personalised learning, adaptive assessments, and data-driven decision-making. This review investigates the impact of AI–LMS integration on educational quality, student success, and institutional performance in higher education. In addition, this review not only examines the technological integration but also evaluates how AI–LMS systems contribute to sustainable development in higher education through reduced resource consumption, improved accessibility, and enhanced educational equity. Following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, a comprehensive search of the Scopus database yielded 60 relevant studies published between 2014 and 2023. The review reveals significant benefits of AI–LMS integration, including enhanced student engagement, personalised learning paths, and improved learning outcomes. Key applications include AI-powered conversational agents, adaptive assessments, and learning analytics. However, challenges such as data privacy concerns, algorithmic bias, and the need for faculty training were also identified. The findings highlight strategies for effective AI–LMS implementation, emphasising the importance of ethical considerations and addressing the digital divide. Results demonstrate that AI–LMS integration can significantly enhance educational quality and student performance when implemented thoughtfully. The review also uncovers areas requiring further research, including long-term impacts on learning outcomes, scalability of AI–LMS solutions, and strategies for ensuring equitable access. Future studies should focus on longitudinal assessments of AI–LMS effectiveness, the development of ethical frameworks for AI in education, and the exploration of AI–LMS applications in diverse educational contexts. This review provides valuable insights for higher education institutions seeking to leverage AI–LMS integration to transform teaching and learning practices.

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.
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.
