Primary school teachers’ opinions on the use of artificial intelligence in educational practices

This study aimed to investigate primary school teachers' views on using artificial intelligence (AI) in education. The present study utilised a case study model. The research study group comprises 20 educators employed in schools in Ankara. The study found that primary school teachers expressed a desire to incorporate AI into their educational practices but lacked sufficient knowledge of its applications. According to the results of research, teachers define AI as a type of application that differs from other computer programs. However, they lack the knowledge, skills, and experience to effectively use it in education. It is also suggested that in-service training activities should be organised for primary school teachers to gain knowledge and skills on this subject.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate primary school teachers' views on using artificial intelligence (AI) in education. The present study utilised a case study model. The research study group comprises 20 educators employed in schools in Ankara. The study found that primary school teachers expressed a desire to incorporate AI into their educational practices but lacked sufficient knowledge of its applications. According to the results of research, teachers define AI as a type of application that differs from other computer programs. However, they lack the knowledge, skills, and experience to effectively use it in education. It is also suggested that in-service training activities should be organised for primary school teachers to gain knowledge and skills on this subject.
