The Role of Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning in Transforming Primary Education Toward Meaningful and Character Based Learning: A Literature Review

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning in Primary Education. The transformation of primary education in the digital era demands a more personalized, adaptive, and character-oriented approach. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Deep Learning are rapidly evolving technologies that are beginning to be implemented in the educational realm to optimize the learning process. This study aims to examine the role of AI and Deep Learning in transforming the learning process at the primary school level into a more meaningful experience that supports character education. A literature review method was employed by analyzing a variety of recent and relevant sources. The findings indicate that integrating AI and Deep Learning enables the creation of learning systems that not only adapt to and focus on individual students but also foster deep understanding, reflective awareness, and enjoyable learning experiences. These three principles form the foundation for creating more contextual, relevant, and character-oriented learning. Nevertheless, the implementation of these technologies still requires ethical oversight and the teacher’s role as a facilitator of values and an emotional guide. Thus, AI and Deep Learning hold significant potential as strategic instruments for realizing transformative, humanistic, and character driven primary education.
