School Teachers’ Awareness and Perceptions of Artificial Intelligence in Science Education: A Study of Secondary School
Keywords:
Artificial intelligence, Teacher, Science Education, Education, Secondary SchoolAbstract
This study investigates the awareness and perspectives of secondary school teachers regarding the incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into science education. A survey was administered to 50 secondary school teachers in urban settings to evaluate their understanding of AI, opinions on its implementation in science education, and preferences for AI applications across different science topics. The outcomes reveal an overall positive perception and awareness of AI among teachers, underscored by a significant interest in AI education. These findings provide meaningful insights into the existing preparedness of teachers to adopt AI in secondary science education, laying the groundwork for future discussions on efficacious integration approaches and initiatives for professional development.
