Philippine students face AI divide due to lack of institutional support

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new study by Instructure and The Fourth Wall reveals that non-traditional students in the Philippines, including those who are working or remote, are at the highest risk of experiencing an "AI divide." This divide is characterized not by access to technology, but by the level of structured institutional support learners receive. Educators expressed low confidence in their institutions' readiness to support these students, citing work responsibilities and cost constraints as major barriers. The report highlights that while AI adoption is accelerating, institutional strategies and staff training are lagging, creating a gap between supported and unsupported learners. AI

IMPACT Highlights the growing gap in AI support for non-traditional students, emphasizing the need for institutional strategy and training to ensure equitable AI integration in education.
