Efficacy of Simulation Artificial Intelligence in Supporting Student Success

Abstract

This study was on using a platform that enables harnessing the power of artificial intelligence and virtual reality to act as an interactive tutor to support student success. The platform augmented reality virtual assistant utilized as a tutor for all of one semester content in a professional health sciences program This innovative platform has established a way to ensure responses to student queries are only from the content provided by the subject matter experts. This pilot study included a cohort with access to the Artificial Intelligent/Virtual Reality tutor and a cohort with human virtual tutors, enabling a comparative analysis of the two methods in supporting student success. This paper provides the results related to student satisfaction and usage provided by the company. In addition, comparative analysis between human tutors and artificial intelligent tutors. Finally, participants will learn about the tool that ensures accuracy of content for the purpose of tutoring students.
