| description | The progress made by artificial intelligence (AI) worldwide has led, through the Beijing
Consensus, UNESCO to recommend to governments, in 2019, to include AI in educational
policies and processes. While numerous studies inventory students' and teachers’ opinions
on the use of AI in education (AIEd), this article differs by analysing the factors that influence
the behavioural intention to use AI from the training stage of future primary and secondary
teachers in Romania. Through exploratory quantitative research, carried out on a sample of
270 students from the Faculty of Education, Social Sciences and Psychology, the interaction
of subjects with AI and the intention of integrating AIEd are followed using binary logistic
regression. The analysis conducted shows that among the six variables of the model, “the
confidence in personal ability to use AI” and “the perception of a greater number of
advantages” have a positive and significant impact on the willingness to use AI in the
educational process, more than “being previously used”, “the knowledge level” or “student
requirements”. These findings are of particular importance for the revision of teacher training
programmes and the development of educational policies that increase the confidence of
future teachers in the ability to use AI, eliminating fears or misconceptions about AI. |
