Abstract: The combination of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into blended learning environments has revolutionized modern education by promoting personalized instruction, interactive engagement, and improved study habits. This study explores the role of AI in fostering a positive attitude toward study habits among higher secondary students in blended classrooms. AI tools, such as adaptive learning systems and smart teaching applications, provide individualized learning experiences by analysing students' needs, strengths, and progress. These technologies enhance motivation, concentration, and participation while offering instant feedback that supports both students and teachers in achieving better academic outcomes. The research was conducted among 11th and 12th standard students from science and arts streams to examine variations in AI usage and study habits. Findings indicate no significant differences between the groups, suggesting that both grade levels and academic streams exhibit similar levels of adaptability and positive attitudes toward AI-based learning. The correlation analysis revealed a weak negative relationship between AI use and study habits, implying that while AI assists in learning, it does not directly determine students' study discipline. Overall, the study concludes that AI serves as a supportive tool that complements traditional learning by improving engagement and awareness, though its influence on study habits remains limited. Effective teacher guidance, structured digital literacy programs, and balanced AI integration are essential to ensure that technology enhances not replaces students' intrinsic motivation and self-regulated study habits.
