Mixed-methods research shows AI-enhanced soundscapes improve environmental knowledge in students, suggesting a powerful educational tool.
This mixed-methods study explores the use of AI-enhanced natural soundscapes in environmental education and their effectiveness in cultivating environmental stewardship among students. A total of 300 students from secondary and tertiary schools in the Philippines participated in a six-week intervention using immersive audio modules generated from natural environments. The experimental group was exposed to AI-enhanced soundscapes layered with educational narration, while the control group received traditional instruction. Quantitative analysis using multivariate regression, t-tests, and ANOVA revealed significant improvements in environmental knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intent among the experimental group. Thematic analysis of focus group discussions confirmed increased eco-empathy and sensory engagement. Findings suggest that integrating AI technologies with ecological content provides a compelling, multisensory educational tool with transformative potential.
