درجة استخدام تطبيقات الذكاء الاصطناعي لدى معلمي الحلقة الأولى في مدارس مدينة طرطوس من وجهة نظرهم

Abstract

^{This study aimed to identify the degree to which first cycle teachers in Tartous city schools utilize artificial intelligence (AI) applications in education from their own perspective. It also sought to examine the differences in the mean scores of the sample members based on the variables of academic qualification and teaching experience. The researcher adopted the descriptive methodology, using a questionnaire as the primary data collection tool. The questionnaire consisted of 35 items distributed across six main domains: lesson planning and preparation, teaching and student interaction, assessment and feedback, classroom management and activities, teacher professional development, and communication with parents. The study sample included 336 students from the Faculty of Education at Tartous University during the academic year 2024/2025. Data were analyzed using the SPSS statistical program, and the results revealed the following:}

^{- The degree of AI application usage among first cycle teachers was low across all domains, with mean scores ranging between 1.96 and 2.10. The domain of teacher professional development ranked first, followed by assessment and feedback, teaching and student interaction, lesson planning and preparation, classroom management and activities, and finally, communication with parents.}

^{- Statistically significant differences were found at the 0.05 significance level in the mean scores of participants on the AI application usage questionnaire based on academic qualification, in favor of those with higher qualifications.}

^{- Statistically significant differences were also found at the 0.05 significance level based on years of teaching experience, in favor of those with more experience.}

^{The study recommends integrating AI applications into teacher preparation and training programs for first cycle educators, providing the necessary technological infrastructure to support their implementation in classrooms, developing smart communication platforms with parents, and promoting educational innovation and research in this field..}
