EDUCATORS' AI INTERACTIONS IN HIGHER EDUCATION

Year 2024, Issue: Yapay Zeka ve Sosyal Bilimler Öğretimi, 52 - 64, 30.10.2024

Abstract

The main aim of this pilot study is to explore how Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are being experienced by educators in higher education (HED) institutions. Drawing on quantitative approach through an online questionnaire technique, this study reveals various AI tools’ familiarity and usage, the perceived benefits and barriers of AI integration, and the training needs for better AI adoption based on higher educators' perspectives. Particularly, findings showcase that AI tools are applied across different contexts in learning and various advantages have been experienced in areas of efficiency, personalization, and student engagement. Nevertheless, the levels of the barriers including AI literacy, technical issues and ethical factors were also reported. Further, the study highlights the need to have a proper training programs that equip educators to stand ready to address challenges that come with applying AI in HED setting. Therefore, the current study provides valuable insights into the current state of AI integration in HED and underlines the importance of further endeavours to assist educators AI integration for their academic activities.

Yükseköğretimde Eğitimcilerin Yapay Zekâ Etkileşimleri

Year 2024, Issue: Yapay Zeka ve Sosyal Bilimler Öğretimi, 52 - 64, 30.10.2024

Abstract

Bu pilot çalışmanın temel amacı, Yapay zekâ (YZ) araçlarının yükseköğretim (YÖG) kurumlarındaki eğitimciler tarafından nasıl deneyimlendiğini keşfetmektir. Çevrimiçi bir anket tekniği aracılığıyla nicel yaklaşıma dayanan bu çalışma, çeşitli YZ araçlarının aşinalığını ve kullanımını, YZ entegrasyonunun algılanan faydalarını ve engellerini ve yükseköğretim eğitimcilerinin bakış açılarına YZ için eğitim ihtiyaçlarını ortaya koymaktadır. Özellikle bulgular, YZ araçlarının öğrenmede farklı bağlamlarda uygulandığını ve verimlilik, kişiselleştirme ve öğrenci katılımı alanlarında çeşitli avantajlar sağladığını göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, YZ hakkında bilgi eksikliği, teknik sorunlar ve etik faktörler de dahil olmak üzere çeşitli engeller de rapor edilmiştir. Çalışma ayrıca, eğitimcileri YÖG ortamında yapay zekanın uygulalarına daha hazır hale getirecek eğitim programların önemini de vurgulamaktadır. Bu nedenle, mevcut araştırma, YÖG'de YZ entegrasyonunun mevcut durumu hakkında değerli bilgiler sağlamakta ve eğitimcilerin akademik faaliyetleri için YZ entegrasyonuna yardımcı olacak daha fazla çabanın önemini göstermektedir.
