Education 4.0 and the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in teaching
Resumo
The objective of this research was to analyze the impact of artificial intelligence on contemporary education, investigating how its implementation has influenced teaching and learning methods, as well as educational outcomes. As for the methods, the research adopted a quantitative exploratory approach, applying questionnaires to 102 teachers from different educational institutions. The questionnaires, conducted in person or virtually, encompassed a five-point Likert scale to capture perceptions about artificial intelligence in education, and the data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and graphs. As a result, the analysis of the results of the questionnaires applied to teachers evidenced a perception about the potential impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on contemporary education. The majority of participants agreed on the effectiveness of AI in personalizing teaching, recognizing its role in tailoring the educational process to the individual needs of students, reflecting a substantial acceptance of technology as a transformative force in the educational landscape. However, there was a significant portion of teachers who expressed concerns and disagreements regarding the use of AI in education, especially regarding student assessment and feedback. These divergences highlighted challenges such as the lack of technological infrastructure, resistance to change, ethical issues, and the need for teacher training for the effective use of AI. In light of this, fostering a collaborative dialogue between educators, researchers, technology professionals, and policymakers was key to addressing these challenges and fully exploiting the potential of AI in positively transforming education, preparing students for the challenges of the 21st century.
