The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Augmented Reality (AR) in education as a means to address the new educational needs and to provide high quality education is gaining ground. AR provides engaging, interactive and motivating mixed reality environments while AI offers personalized experiences. The aim of this chapter is to explore how the convergence of AI and AR can impact the educational domain and lead to the development of more interactive and immersive Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS). This chapter presents the technologies of AI, AR and ITS and examines their use in educational settings. Then, it showcases the findings of recent related studies, discusses the potentials and merits that their combination engenders in educational contexts and provides future research directions. Based on the findings, it can be said that the convergence of AI and AR can result in the development of interactive, immersive, engaging and personalized learning experiences. These experiences can be applied in all educational levels and have the potential to take into account learners’ psychological, cognitive and motivational states as well as their unique characteristics, knowledge, preferences, interests and performance. These experiences can help to meet the educational demand, positively impact teaching and learning activities and increase learning outcomes and motivation.
