Abstract

The study examined the effect of the artificial intelligence tutor system on students' achievement in mathematics among public senior secondary school students of FCT, Abuja. Two objectives, two research questions and hypotheses were raised and tested for the study. The study adopted a quasi-experimental research design. The study population comprised 24,771 SS2 students from all public senior secondary schools in six Area Councils of the FCT Abuja. A sample of 102 students was selected using simple random sampling in which students from intact classes from two different schools were used. The instrument used for data collection was the Mathematics Achievement Test (MAT). The instrument was subjected to the validation of experts in mathematics and measurement and evaluation, and the results yielded a logical validity index of 0.72. The instrument was further subjected to a pilot study. Results obtained from the exercise were used to obtain a reliability index of 0.77 for the mathematics achievement test. The research questions were answered using mean and standard deviation, while the hypotheses were tested using analysis of covariance. The findings from the study showed there was a significant effect of the artificial intelligent tutor system on students' academic achievement in mathematics of public senior secondary schools in the FCT, Abuja, and there was no significant effect of the intelligent tutor system on students' academic achievement in mathematics of public senior secondary schools when segregated according to gender in the FCT, Abuja. The study recommended that teachers should be trained in the use of an intelligence tutor system to enhance students' academic achievement. The study concluded that the intelligence tutor system enhances students' achievement in the FCT, Abuja.
