Abstract

The advancement of Artificial Intelligence has opened up many opportunities to enhance the quality of education, especially in programming instruction. In topic F – “Problem Solving with the Help of Computers,” Computer Science 10 requires students to develop algorithmic thinking and programming skills. However, many students still struggle with understanding syntax, debugging, and applying algorithms to real-world problems. To address this issue, the study proposes the application of an AI Chatbot as a virtual teaching assistant to help personalize learning content. The researchers surveyed the current state of teaching and learning Python programming in topic F of Computer Science 10, while also conducting a pedagogical experiment with a group of students using the AI Chatbot compared to a group learning through traditional methods. The experimental results showed that the experimental group achieved an average score of 8.04 compared to the control group’s 7.07, with a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05), indicating that the AI Chatbot is effective in improving learning outcomes.
