The role of AI in education is slowly growing. As a new technology, its uses and capabilities have not been fully realized or understood. AI provides many opportunities as well as challenges for supporting students, teachers, and skills development. However, from higher education faculty to preschool teachers, the ways in which AI can support planning, research, and student learning are not fully understood. When harnessed effectively, AI has important implications for overcoming global concerns and increasing educational equality. Examining AI Disruption in Educational Settings: Challenges and Opportunities provides practical, researched examples of how AI has been applied in educational settings. It examines current AI policies and considers the ways in which education may change with the use of AI. Covering topics such as field experience preparation, critical thinking skills, and global education patterns, this book is an excellent resource for pre-service teachers, in-service teachers, higher education faculty, technologists, professionals, researchers, scholars, academicians, and more
