Students + AI: Your Top 4 Questions, Answered!

Nov 12, 2025 | Shannon Tanwani | General

AI is changing the way students learn, complete their homework and prepare for tests and exams. Although it’s making studying faster (and sometimes more fun) – it’s also raising new questions. Here are the top 4 FAQs we’re hearing from students like you.

#1: Can I use AI to help me with my exam prep?

Yes - as long as you’re using it the right way. AI tools can help explain topics, summarise key information, or quiz you on key facts. You can even use AI to take notes on key video lessons (here’s a link to our YouTube channel). Copying answers straight from AI will not help you learn, and more importantly understand!

#2:  Can I use AI to help gain a better understanding of tricky subjects?
Of Course - AI tools can help break down hard topics and explain them to you as many times as you like. Think quadratic equations, the periodic table and our scientific calculator video (YES, the one that went VIRAL). Just remember to always double check information (from AI) from a credible source like your teachers or Learners Cloud’s videos (Our YouTube channel) to make sure it’s correct.

#3:  Where do schools draw the line - what’s considered “cheating” with AI?

Using AI to generate ideas, organise your thoughts, or tweak/check your writing is usually fine - as long as the final work & effort is yours. 

#4: Will GCSEs and IGCSEs change because of AI?

Yes, the UK curriculum just recently announced a major reform. Starting September 2028, there will be an emphasis placed on AI, data science & media literacy, helping to prepare students for the real (AI driven) world.

AI can make studying easier and less time consuming - but remember, real success still comes from understanding and effort. At Learners Cloud, our teacher-led videos give you trusted, exam-ready content that helps you study smarter. Sign up for full access today!
