Abstract

This study aimed to design an AI-based learning program and evaluate its effectiveness on problem-solving skills of students with mathematical learning disabilities. In terms of purpose, this research is classified as developmental with an exploratory nature and was conducted using a quasi-experimental method with a control group. The statistical population included all fourth to sixth-grade elementary students with suspected mathematical learning disabilities in Mahidasht, Kermanshah Province, during the 2023–2024 academic year. After screening using the Bryant and Hammill Scale (2000), 20 students with access to online education were selected and divided into two groups of 10 (10 in the experimental group and 10 in the control group). Prior to implementing the program, a problem-solving skills test was administered as a pre-test for students. Subsequently, the designed program was implemented over six weeks. At the end, a post-test was conducted for both groups, and the results were analyzed based on the standardized Problem-Solving Skills Scale by Ahdhianto et al (2020). The findings revealed that integrating artificial intelligence into the mathematics educational program significantly improved problem-solving skills and related sub-skills among students.
