| Abstract: | Purpose: The primary purpose of this study is to explore the influence of artificial intelligence on students' career competencies and career resources. Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a pivotal role in the education system, so it is necessary to understand how it shapes students' skills, expertise, attitudes and beliefs in the modern technological era. This research shows the influence of AI on students' career competencies, i.e. critical thinking, problem-solving skills and digital literacy. Moreover, it helps students choose their future career paths based on their interests and potential. This research paper highlights some challenges in implementing advanced technology in modern classrooms. It gives recommendations to mitigate those potential challenges through proper reforms and strategies to maximize the use of AI in education for students' career competencies and resources. Design/methodology/approach: A narrative literature review has been conducted for this research. Seven themes emerged from the literature review: Technological advancements for Society 5.0 and Education 5.0, Influence of digital technologies in Education 5.0, digital literacy and students' competencies for modern classrooms, technological developments for students' career resources, impact of digital literacy on students' career selection, challenges to integrate technology in modern classrooms and mitigating strategies to overcome potential challenges. Findings: Based on the findings of the literature review, it is revealed that AI plays a significant role in students' career competencies and career resources in the advanced era of technology. In Society 5.0, technologies help students gain better knowledge and skills and make connections globally. Students can find their career resources and enhance their competencies in the desired field by using AI in the cyber-physical environment. Moreover, some potential challenges nationally and internationally are highlighted in the literature review. Practical implications: This narrative literature review helps stakeholders design curricula for higher education institutions and consider the potential challenges of implementing advanced technology in the classroom. Go through the ground realities of all contexts of a country and make an inclusive curriculum for marginalized communities. Educators and curriculum designers use their findings to use AI effectively in the classrooms; students benefit from AI to make their learning personalized and prepare for a better future, which directs them to choose their career paths. Moreover, educational institutions integrate AI in their education to meet the needs of Society 5.0, prepare students for the upcoming era of advanced technology and prepare their infrastructure accordingly. Policymakers can get insights from the findings of this research to make policies accordingly to train teachers for the implementation of AI in the education system and provide equitable access to technology to all students. The findings of this literature review also guide teachers and parents in analyzing the positive outcomes of technology for a conducive teaching-learning process. Originality/value: This narrative literature review is unique in Pakistan because it draws the attention of all stakeholders to the significance of integrating artificial intelligence in modern classrooms and highlights its importance in Society 5.0. Students learn crucial skills in the 21st century and prepare for the future. Few research studies have been conducted in our context on implementing AI in modern classrooms in Society 5.0. |
