Abstract:

Artificial Intelligence is considered a technological platform that impacts the teaching and learning process, particularly on its effect on assessment and grading and influence on graduates' future careers. However, the use of AI in the field of education, specifically on effective teaching strategies and classroom management poses issues experienced by teachers in the field. The increased use of AI in the classroom faces significant challenges because of insufficient resources for complete implementation. Nevertheless, researchers ground the argument in the gap and observed the need to find out more in the context of the experiences, coping mechanisms, and insights of Filipino and Indonesian teachers regarding the role of AI in shaping effective teaching strategies to improve student learning outcomes within the Philippine and Indonesian education system. Through this study initiative, an international university collaboration is established to conduct a multiple case study using qualitative interviews to gather essential information. Face-to-face interviews and online interviews were conducted with the participants with the guide of a given research questionnaire. Thus, semi-structured interviews are conducted with three Filipino and two Indonesian teachers as participants from private schools to gather their experiences in implementing and using AI-driven teaching strategies in their classrooms, forming the basis of this multiple case study. The researchers then proceeded to analyze the gathered information using descriptive-case analysis, within-case analysis, and cross-case analysis. In the concluding part of this study, from technical obstacles to systemic issues of digital infrastructure and technological inequality, these complexities underscore the need for concerted efforts to address barriers to AI-driven education. Despite these challenges, teachers demonstrate resilience and resourcefulness in navigating technological hurdles and promoting student engagement. By investing in professional development and fostering collaboration, educators unlock the full potential of AI in education and create inclusive learning environments that empower all students to succeed in the digital age.
