Impact of Artificial Intelligence on The Learning of Engineering Students from Bolivian Universities
Year: 2026
Type: article
Study design: Clinical Trial
Abstract: Artificial intelligence has been progressively incorporated into higher education as a support tool to strengthen teaching, learning, and academic feedback processes. The study aimed to analyze the effect of the use of artificial intelligence as a pedagogical intervention in Basic Education students of two Bolivian universities, through a pre-test- post-test design and the identification of factors associated with learning. A quantitative research was developed, with a pre-experimental design, with the application of pre-test and post-test. The intervention was oriented to the academic use of artificial intelligence tools in learning activities. The instrument was validated by expert judgment, a pilot test was carried out and reliability was estimated using Cronbach's alpha. The results showed improvements after the intervention, especially in the academic use of artificial intelligence, motivation towards learning, digital competence and critical thinking. In addition, positive relationships were identified between technological mastery, academic participation and the use of pedagogical intervention. It is concluded that artificial intelligence can be a relevant pedagogical strategy to strengthen university learning, as long as its application is accompanied by teaching guidance, ethical criteria and activities related to the training objectives.
