Leveraging GPT for Personalized Learning in Higher Education: Opportunities, Challenges, and Student Perspectives across India

Higher education is evolving owing to the implementation of GPT platforms which allow for real-time, automated tutoring, and provide tailored content, resulting in personalized adaptive learning. Besides increased self-efficacy and engagement, the tools do pose risks such as data privacy concerns, academic dishonesty, and limited accessibility. This study examines the implementation of GPT technology by college students from different regions across India with a particular study on Bihar and other states for balanced representation. It combines methods through literature and fieldwork, including an analysis of existing documents. To evaluate established patterns of usage, effectiveness, and challenges, a semi-structured questionnaire focusing on GPT use will be distributed through Google Forms. Additionally, incorporating case studies of institutions that have integrated GPT will enhance practical understanding. This research seeks to evaluate the impact of GPT technology on academic performance regionally, assess the disparities in adoption rate by region, and suggest frameworks for safe and responsible AI use within educational systems while mitigating critical concerns. Institutions will be equipped with the means to employ GPT technology to elevate learning experiences without sacrificing academic honesty and accessibility.
