INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study

In these present times a lot of students use this kind of application

in their academic activities like, making an essay, answering worded

questions, and even making a report for their school reporting activities

because of the help of this application a lot of students excel in making

essays and reports for their school activities. This kind of application also

refers to an online application that is being used worldwide mostly by

students and teachers in high school and college levels.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an online program that can imitate

human conversations. This are designed to understand the preference

and needs of an individual without the involvement of any human subject.

According to Adiguzel et al. (2023), the Artificial Intelligence (AI) has led to

a new age of innovation and transformation in many fields including

education, including improving productivity, learning outcomes,

personalize instruction, instant feedback and students’ engagements. This

kind of program hold a great promise for boosting students’ academic

performance and allowing educators to provide better instruction.

For an instance, intelligence tutoring system may provide specific

suggestions and supports to students. Based from Caratiquit and

 2

Caratiquit (2023), they said that the utilization of the Artificial Intelligence

or AI applications as an educational aid tool has the potential to impact

students’ motivation to learn in a diverse way. They also mentioned that

Artificial Intelligence(AI) offers a personalize and easily accessible

support, enabling students to seek clarifications, pose inquiries and obtain

guidance about their academic subjects. Artificial Intelligence(AI) has a big

impact to students and teachers’ lives.

There are two major of effect of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to

students, this are the positive and negative effect. The positive effect of

this is that it guides students though their homework’s, addressing queries

and helping them to answer difficult worded questions. While the negative

effect of this is that, its causes students to lose valuable learning time, it

also disrupts the educational process of students, this also making

students lazy and very dependent to Artificial Intelligence applications in

answering their activities instead of reading the textbook that is given to

them.

According to Bobek et al. (2023), Artificial Intelligence(AI)

applications like ChatGPT has already been publicly available as a large

language- based artificially intelligent chatbots for a few months and was

receiving considerable attention in education, some attention was

negative. They also stated that Artificial Intelligence application like

 3

ChatGPT was banned by some of the largest school districts in the U.S,

because of the concerns over potential academic dishonesty on the part of

the students.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) equipment now shows up to be one of the

sections of the educational experience of many high school students, but

how do the students use them, and what do you expect about them.

Based from Bobek et at., (2023), they also mentioned that they collected

the student’s perception about the AI tool and learning how students are

using them, they also said that they gain a new understanding of students

experiences and how they are able to better assist students, families, and

educators as student’s progress through high school and prepare for

college or for their future careers.

Because of the study that Bobek conducted people started to

understand why most of the students all over the world use Artificial

Intelligence in their studies, this helps students to enhance their ability to

think before answering their activities. AI helps students also to be more

prepared and ready before stepping into college life.

AI application have been used in educational purpose for quite

some time. This kind of application can be categorized into those with

education intentionality that is use to administer a task such as students’

guidance and assistance. These bots or applications act as a learning

 4

companion of students which provides dialogue, collaboration, and

reflection (Gide and Sandu, 2019).

The function of this application is that it receives information from

the students and the students can connect with each other through this

application. By posting question this enables the participations of the

students’ in discussions and they provide a response, while the AI

chatbots offers a comment/ suggestions.

According to Adriani et al. (2023), they said that Artificial

Intelligence (AI) can Identify what methods make it difficult for students to

understand the lessons in progress, so that later AI can get used to finding

new ways to help teachers in students learning so that it will be more

easily understandable. They also mentioned that the lesson material given

by the teachers to the students will be more enthusiastic during the

learning process, because if students doesn’t understand the lesson this

will cause them to be bored. They also said that AI can find the reason

behind students’ lack of understanding in understanding the subject matter

taught by the educators.

By allowing the adaptation and adjustment of educational

experiences to improve students’ academic performance and

comprehension overall, Artificial Intelligence has the potential to bring

significant improvement in the field of education.

 5

According to the study of Perez (2023), despite the benefits of

using the Artificial Intelligence applications, there are also concerns about

its impact on the Higher Educational Institution. With the rise of online

education and the growing availability of educational resources on the

internet, many traditional Universities and colleges are worried about the

future of their students and institutions.

But it was seen that the use of AI applications in education shows a

big improvements of students’ academic performance, because of the help

of this applications students were able to achieve the grades or the result

they wanted to see thanks to this application. This application is being

used to predict students’ performance based on their social background,

past achievements, and their learning environment.

The implementation of Artificial Intelligence based on educational

applications and tools in Senior High School classrooms has the potential

to provide a more engaging and personalized learning experience of

students. The increasing amount of investigations on technology use in

education can provide a better and deeper understanding of the complex

interactions between technology learning and users experience in the

context of Senior High School (Belmonte et al.,2023).

The objective of this study is that the researchers aim to discover or

understand more about the negative and positive effects of AI application

 6

to students. The researchers also aim to understand how AI applications

help students improve in their academics by using this kind of

applications. They also seek to know how AI application in being used in

its different forms.

The usage of Artificial Intelligence applications is good but students

should minimize or lessen the use of this kind of applications in order to

reduce the dishonesty of students towards their teachers, because of the

increasing usage of AI applications a lot of students are seen to be more

dependent in AI applications in answering their activities. Students should

use AI applications as basis in answering their activities in order for them

to understand their lessons or activities.

METHODOLOGY
This chapter presents the research design, population and locale of

the study, data collecting instruments, data collecting procedure, and the

treatment of data.

Research Design

The researchers used a qualitative research approach, this study

also utilized the method of descriptive research. According to Sirisilla

(2023), descriptive research design is a powerful tool used by scientists

and researchers to gather information about a particular group or

phenomenon. This type of research provides a detailed and accurate

picture of the characteristics and behaviors of a particular population or

subject, by observing and collecting data on a given topic. The researcher

also mention that descriptive research method helps researchers to gain

deeper meaning and understanding about a specific issues and provides

valuable insights that can inform future studies.

Population and Locale of the Study

The study will be conduct at AMPMNHS- Senior High Extension

Section at Ayosip, Poblacion, Itogon, Benguet. Students in grade 11 at

AMPMNHS- Senior High Extension Section who uses Artificial Intelligence

in their studies will be chosen as the participants. The selection of the

 10

participants is done through the use of purposive random sampling

method.

Data Collecting Instruments

The main data collecting instruments that will be used in this study

is interviews, the interview will be a one-on-one interview with the

participants. Structured interview will be implemented and the researchers

will be using an open ended questions, the research will be conduct at

AMPMNH- Senior High Extension Section. The researchers will be using

purposive sampling in picking their participants, according to Nikolopoulou

(2022) purposive sampling is a technique in which units are selected

because they have the characteristics that the researchers need in their

study, in other words, units are selected “on purpose”.

Data Collecting Procedure

The researchers created a consent letter for the participants

explaining the purpose of their study, in order for the researchers to

conduct a one-on-one interview towards their selected participants. Their

answers will be recorded with the permission on the participants in order

for the researchers to analyze their answers correctly.

 11

Treatment of Data

The data collected were subjected for the analysis in the

development of right and accurate interpretation. Interview and

questionnaires will be used as the method of determining the positive,

negative, and the possible cause of using artificial intelligence in the

academic improvement of grade 11 students. Their answers will be

transcribed carefully before they will be subjected in the cool and warm

analysis in order to determine the themes.

 12

Result and Discussion

This chapter presents the result of the study containing a

description about the main findings of the research, where in the

discussion part discuss and interprets the results.

The positive effect of using Artificial Intelligence in the academic

improvement of grade 11 students

When it comes to the positive effect of A.I many students agrees

that artificial intelligence help them in a positive way like they mention that

it helps them improve their grammars, understanding, and gives them fast

and accurate answers. According to Scispace (2023), studies have shown

that the implementation of A.I components and computational sciences in

the classroom lead to improve student’s achievement, increase

motivation, and a more positive attitude towards learning. Additionally, the

use of AI and machine learning techniques in students’ performance

prediction can help prevent dropouts and assist students in identifying

fields where they excel academically.

Grammar

Based on the thematization of problem number 1 it can be seen

that some of the students agreed that artificial intelligence help them

improve their grammar and the way they construct a sentence, like one of
 13

our participants said “it can improve on how I work on my sentences and

my grammars”. According to Dickson (2023), with the help of the artificial

intelligence you can immediately find out what are the common mistakes

that are in your writing as well as areas where you can improve. By using

an A.I you can identify your most frequent mistakes and work hard

towards fixing them in the future.

Improves Understanding

The learners said that artificial intelligence helps them a lot in

improving their understanding of a certain topic or lesson. According to

one of our participants she said that “it helps you to understand some of

your activities if you’re having a hard time to understand it”. According to

Nguyen (2023), AI help students to learn smarter by providing them with

personalized learning experiences that are tailored to their individual

learning style, as well as access to information and data to help them

better understand the material.

 14

The negative effect of using Artificial Intelligence in the academic

improvement of students

When it comes to the negative effect of using Artificial Intelligence,

students are being dependent to AI in answering their activities and it also

making them lazy causing them to lose interest in answering their

activities on their own. According to Mahdi (2024), one major

disadvantage of AI in education is the dependence on it involving the

educational process. Artificial intelligence can complete difficult, lengthy

assignments almost instantaneously and students may become overly

dependent on technology for tasks where they could be learning and

developing their brains.

A.I Dependence

During the thematization of problem number 2 a lot of the students

are being super dependent to AI in answering their assignment, and

activities. According to Avila (2023), in the academe, A.I has also already

incorporate the use of it when making their school work and assignments,

and the range goes from simple essay, up to research paper. What’s bad

about this is the fact that it becomes a threat in unleashing a student’s full

potential and them having dependence on a machine to do task that a

human should do. For example, one of our participants said that “she is
 15

lacking confident in her answers because she is just depending everything

in A.I” causing her to have a hard time in answering something without the

help of A.I.

Lazy

Some of our participants mentioned that by using A.I this is making

you lazy because mostly A.I is doing all the work and you are just going to

copy paste it. For example, one of our participants said that it increases

the number of students who are becoming lazy. Base from the study of

Musa (2024), AI can indeed be misused in a way that promotes laziness

among students. For instance, AI-powered translation tools can make it

easier for students to cheat on language assignments without actually

learning the language. Additionally, AI-generated essays and code can

tempt students to take shortcuts instead of putting in the effort to complete

their work independently.

 16

The possible cause of using Artificial Intelligence in the academic

improvement of students

When it comes to the possible cause of A.I some of the learners

agrees the it will give them a positive impact like it helps them excel in

their academics and most of them said that it is making them lazy and

dependent to Artificial Intelligence in answering their activities. According

to Scispace (2023), the applications of artificial intelligence have

expanded across various sectors, leading to improved efficiency in

traditional processes. However, the status of intelligent systems in society

raises moral concerns, as their ability to exhibit agency and

anthropomorphic characteristics blurs the line between human-made

objects and intelligent machines.

A.I Dependent

Based on the thematization of problem number 3 other learners

said that Artificial Intelligence won't help them excel in their academics but

instead it is making them super dependent in the help of the artificial

intelligence in answering their activities in school. Like one of the

participants said "in the near future kindi mo alam kung anong gagawin

mo pag gagawa ka nang essay". Based on the study of Nguyen (2023),

the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the realm of education

 17

invites rising concerns among educators about the issue of students using

Ai to write essays, plagiarism and misuse of Ai in students’ school work.

Excel in all academics

I this part of the thematization few of the students agreed that

Artificial Intelligence is helping them achieve and excel in their academics

like for example it is giving them high grades. According to Scispace

(2023), A.I has been found to have a positive impact on senior high

students' academic performance. Studies have shown that the

implementation of AI components and computational sciences in the

classroom leads to improved student achievement, increased motivation,

and a more positive attitude towards learning. Additionally, the use of AI

and machine learning techniques in student performance prediction can

help prevent dropouts and assist students in identifying fields where they

can excel academically.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to know the positive and negative effect of

artificial intelligence and its possible cause. Based on the data gathering

here are the following results that come out:

1. The common positive effect of artificial intelligence in the

academic performance of grade 11 students are, it helps the

 18

learners improve the way they grammatically write sentences,

essays, and research paper.

2. The common negative effect of artificial intelligence to students is

that it is making them very lazy and dependent to it causing them

to have difficulties in answering their paper on their own.

3. The possible cause of AI is that it can sometimes improve their

grammars and the way they construct a sentence. On the other it

is making the student lazy and dependent to A.I

 19

Conclusion and Recommendation

Conclusion

Base on the results of the study here are the following results that come

out

1. The common positive effect of artificial intelligence is it helps the

learners answer their certain activities like essay or research.

2. The common negative effect of artificial intelligence is that it

sometimes lessens the intellectual knowledge and critical thinking

of students.

3. The common possible cause of using artificial intelligence is that it

will give the learners a high grade but at the same time it lessens

their intellectual knowledge.

Recommendation

Based on the conclusion here are the following recommendations:

1. Use AI for basis in answering an activity and avoid copy paste.

 20

2. For students whose using AI avoiding and lessening the usage of AI

if your answering a certain activity.

3. Whenever the teachers give an activity phones should be

confiscated to avoid the usage of AI.
