Abstract. This article investigates the functionality and applications of an Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) system specifically designed for learning purposes. It presents three compelling case studies that pilot the AIoT system in various educational contexts. The first case study focuses on primary education and the use of a smart dashboard to monitor the state of plants in environmental awareness activities. In the second case study, conducted in higher education, variables such as ��2 levels, light intensity, and temperature are monitored to generate personalised recommendations for creating an optimal learning environment through tailored adjustments. The third case study explores the potential of plants to identify human presence and activity patterns in learning environments. By utilising the AIoT system’s capabilities, plant data is analysed to infer human presence and interactions. This innovative approach offers insights into understanding student behaviour and optimising learning environments based on real-time feedback from the plant ecosystem. Analyzing these studies, the article deliberates on implications and future research opportunities in the realm of AI and IoT. It underscores the potential of AIoT systems in enhancing learning experiences, engaging students, and refining educational settings. The findings not only pave the way for future investigations, including model enhancements and privacy considerations but also emphasize AIoT’s potential in reshaping the educational landscape. This article serves as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners keen on leveraging the synergy of AI and IoT in educational contexts.
