This study analyzes the incorporation of artificial intelligence as a tool to support pedagogical mediation in an Agroecological Interpretation Center with a robotic system, from a perspective of sustainability and socio-ecological complexity. Therefore, the research was conducted using a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, descriptive design, applying a structured questionnaire to participating students in the educational environment.
The results show a positive evaluation of the technological tool, with an overall average of 3.74 out of 5, indicating a favorable level of acceptance. The main contributions highlighted are the practical utility of artificial intelligence for resolving doubts and supporting tasks, its ability to enhance the learning experience, and the strengthening of pedagogical mediation when teacher support is provided. Thus, the integration with educational robotics allowed for the creation of an experiential learning environment, facilitating the observation and analysis of agroecological variables in real-world contexts.
Thus, areas for improvement were identified related to the clarity of interactions, response time, collaborative work, and trust in the information generated. These findings suggest that the implementation of artificial intelligence in education requires a structured pedagogical design that guarantees its critical, ethical, and contextualized use.
n conclusion, artificial intelligence presents a high potential for enriching educational processes in agroecology, especially when combined with active learning strategies and technologies such as educational robotics, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of socio-ecological systems.
