Abstract This study explores the implementation of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) and personalized learning strategies in the delivery of Ethical Approaches to Information Technology Management (TECM231) for diploma-level students at the Applied College, Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University, Saudi Arabia. Taught during the third level of a two-year diploma program, the course introduces students to foundational ethical principles and applies them to emerging information technologies. With a focus on cultural sensitivity, real-world applications, and critical reasoning, the course was redesigned to integrate adaptive learning technologies, including AI-based dialogue systems, branching scenario simulations, and personalized feedback tools. A cohort of 20 students participated in this classroom-based intervention using their own digital devices. Findings from learning analytics, reflective journals, and student feedback revealed a marked improvement in ethical reasoning, engagement, and self-directed learning. Students exhibited increased autonomy, better application of ethical theories, and a higher level of confidence when analyzing dilemmas involving privacy, intellectual property, automation, and social media ethics. The ITS tools facilitated differentiated instruction and supported students in developing essential lifelong learning skills, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical decision-making. The study concludes that ITS can significantly enhance the delivery of ethics education in technical programs and recommends broader institutional support, customized content development, and expanded research on ITS efficacy in value-based curricula. | ||||
