Evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven Information Systems in Higher Education: A Review
Keywords:
Adaptive Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Data Ethics, Educational Technology, Higher Education, Information SystemAbstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has fundamentally reshaped the
architecture of Information Systems (IS) within higher
education institutions. This systematic literature review
examines the technological transition from traditional
management databases to intelligent, autonomous
frameworks. By analyzing peer-reviewed studies published
over the last decade, this paper identifies three major
evolutionary phases: the automation of administrative tasks,
the rise of adaptive learning platforms, and the integration
of predictive analytics for student success. The findings
highlight how AI-driven systems enhance operational
efficiency and personalize student experiences while
simultaneously introducing complex challenges regarding
data ethics and algorithmic bias. This review provides a
comprehensive synthesis of current trends, offering a
strategic roadmap for educators and technologists to
navigate the future of intelligent academic ecosystems.
