Abstract

This paper explores how advanced technologies like Artificial Intelligence can be seamlessly integrated with contemporary pedagogical methodologies to generate multimedia-based interactive learning content. Through a blend of AI-powered applications, self-assessment tools and interactive video platforms, the research initiative is working to develop and refine an agile e-book for high schools and more specifically for the course of biology. The integration of these technologies has led to more immersive and engaging learning environments, where students can interact with content in ways that improve comprehension and memorisation of the fundamental concepts. Teachers, who reviewed the e-book, reported that it is pedagogically sound, highly practical and therefore has great potential for adoption in high schools’ classrooms on a wider scale. The findings also stress the absolute necessity for teacher training to incorporate these technologies into daily teaching practice. As educators, there is a need to learn both how the tools work and where these resources fit in the curriculum delivery. According to the research, educators are upskilled almost immediately through this integration of technologies and digital tools that significantly aids student engagement with personalised adaptive learning experiences, leading to better educational outcomes and resulting in a more innovative future.
