ABSTRACT
This study wants to find out how Artificial Intelligence (AI) affects the education of junior and senior high school students at Ignacio Villamor High School. Today, many students use AI tools like chatbots, grammar and plagiarism checkers, automatic summarizers, and apps that adjust lessons based on their needs. These tools can help students learn faster, finish schoolwork, and review for tests. However, they may also lead to cheating, relying too much on technology, and not fully understanding the lessons. Because of this, the study will focus on four main areas: how students use AI, how they think it affects their grades, how it changes their study habits and motivation, and how aware they are of using AI in a responsible and ethical way.
The research will use a quantitative-descriptive approach, which mainly involves collecting numbers and summarizing them. It will also compare the experiences of junior high (Grades 7– 10) and senior high (Grades 11–12) students. The respondents will be selected students from different Junior and Senior High school, chosen using proper sampling methods. Data will be collected through a questionnaire made by the researchers, checked by experts, and tested first to make sure it is reliable. The questionnaire will ask about how often and why students use AI, whether they think it changed their grades and study habits, how motivated and engaged they feel in class, and what they think about issues like plagiarism, getting unauthorized help, and properly citing AI-generated content. The answers will be summarized using simple statistics like frequency, percentage, and average (mean), and basic tests will be used to see if there are important differences between junior and senior high school students.
The results of this study will help school leaders, teachers, parents, and students better understand how AI is changing the way students learn inside and outside the classroom. The findings may be used to create or improve school rules about AI use, to design classroom strategies that use AI in a helpful way, and to promote responsible digital behavior—especially critical thinking, honesty, and proper use of new technologies.
