Abstract : Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming education by providing innovative solutions such as personalized learning, automated assessments, and intelligent tutoring systems. However, its integration raises critical ethical issues that need to be addressed to ensure responsible use. This paper explores the ethical concerns of AI in education, focusing on fairness, privacy, accountability, transparency, and the role of teachers. Drawing from the UNESCO report on AI in education, the paper examines how these issues affect equity, data security, and student autonomy. It also discusses the ethical design of AI systems and the long-term implications of their adoption in educational contexts. The findings underscore the need for AI systems to be designed and implemented with ethical guidelines that prioritize inclusivity, fairness, and human-centered values.

Keywords : Artificial Intelligence, Ethics, Education, UNESCO, Fairness, Privacy, Accountability, Transparency, AI in Education.
