Possibilities of AI in practicum: a student perspective from the literature
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.24310/rep.10.1.2025.21952Keywords:
University student, artificial intelligence, internship, ICT, ethics of technologyAbstract
This study presents a literature review on the use of AI in practicums from the student's perspective. A meta-synthesis was applied to 40 articles published between 2019 and 2024, which refer to how university students use artificial intelligence tools to strengthen autonomy, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Despite the various benefits, there are ethical challenges, risks due to technological dependence, and the need to develop digital skills. Therefore, the integration of AI in practicums provides important support for professional training, if it is used responsibly and critically to promote inclusive and quality learning in higher education.
