Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping curriculum studies and instructional design, offering innovative approaches to content delivery, assessment, and student engagement across various disciplines. In Nigeria, AI-driven tools are being integrated into secondary school subjects such as English, Literature in English, Chemistry, and Mathematics, enhancing personalized learning and real-time feedback. In Literature, AI facilitates textual analysis and interactive storytelling, providing deeper insights into themes and character development. In Chemistry, virtual laboratories and AI-powered simulations offer students hands-on experience, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. Despite these advancements, challenges persist, including inadequate digital infrastructure, teacher resistance, and concerns about AI diminishing critical thinking and creativity. Additionally, ethical issues such as algorithmic bias and data privacy raise concerns about equitable access to quality education. This paper explores the potential of AI in curriculum design while addressing the pressing challenges and proposing strategic solutions to ensure AI complements human-centered learning. By striking a balance between technology and traditional pedagogical methods, AI can enhance curriculum effectiveness without compromising the depth, creativity, and analytical skills that define holistic education.
