Generative Artificial Intelligence: Verification of Educational Applications Model

Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) is emerging as a significant educational tool, reshaping how educational activities are designed and implemented. This article presents a novel model for GAI applications in education, identifying five core roles it can assume in school contexts. These roles include supporting teachers in content creation, engaging students in AI-driven tasks, and facilitating administrative duties. A study with Polish teachers (N=995) suggests that effective use of GAI demands appropriate pedagogical skills, such as crafting prompts and evaluating AI-generated content. Findings emphasize the need for further research on the long-term impacts of AI in education, particularly concerning ethical and social dimensions. The article aims to demonstrate how thoughtfully integrated GAI can enhance traditional teaching methods, contributing to a more innovative and effective educational environment.
