Abstract
AI assisted learning (AAL) is now making its way into the secondary schools and the impact of AAL on students’ self-efficacy (SE) or one’s confidence in learning is still not studied in India. This research is an attempt to explore the association between AAL and self-efficacy of the secondary school students of UP. The goal was to explore the relationship between the use of AAL and students’ self-efficacy and to determine the factors that moderate the relationship between the two. A descriptive survey design was used and primary data was collected from 200 secondary students selected from urban and rural Uttar Pradesh in the form of structured questionnaire of which categorical items and 5-point likert scale were used. The data were analysed using percentage analysis, mean and standard deviation and Pearson correlation. Results indicated that AAL use was significantly higher with self-efficacy (r = 0.58, p < 0.01), most strongly for understanding difficult topics and exam confidence, though with a tendency to over-dependence, rural access gaps and a slight gender difference. The study findings indicate that AAL is strengthening self-efficacy in case of supporting students’ self-directed learning efforts; this implies that teachers need to implement AAL in secondary education in an equitable way.
