Educators’ perceptions on the use of Artificial Intelligence in the educational field

Abstract

The use of digital resources in the educational field is linked to the visions and perceptions that professionals in this field have about them. In this sense, the study of these perceptions becomes important as these digital resources will affect the social and professional life of students. One of these tools is Artificial Intelligence. Its presence is growing day by day, and therefore its integration with educational processes is increasing. In this article, we present the perceptions that a group of educators from the University of Córdoba have about the education+AI binomial. Through an ex post facto research, and using a descriptive and correlational design, we aimed to determine the knowledge that educators in training have about artificial intelligence in educational fields in general and inclusion in particular. The main result indicated that its use improves learning experiences and reshapes teaching processes, leading to a total transformation of the educational system. Additionally, it has been found that AI can be a good resource to promote education in general and inclusion in particular. Therefore, training processes are demanded for its incorporation into the educational act.
