Teachers' Perception Scale Towards the Use of Artificial Intelligence Tools in Education
Özet
The aim of this study is to develop a scale to determine teachers' perceptions of the use of artificial intelligence tools in education. The universe of the study consists of teachers from different branches working in schools affiliated with the Ministry of National Education throughout Türkiyein the 2023-2024 academic year. The sample of the study consists of 530 volunteer teachers. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted to determine the construct validity of the scale with the collected data. Pearson r test was used for the validity of the scale, and in order to determine the discrimination of the items, the difference between the groups was examined by determining the 27% upper group and 27% lower group. In order to obtain reliability, internal consistency coefficients were calculated, and stability tests were conducted with the test-retest method. The scale consists of 3 factors and 37 items. The factors were named considering the item contents. The total Cronbach Alpha value of the factors in the scale was determined as 0.970 and the total Omega value as 0.971. The correlation obtained by the test-retest method varies between 0.660 and 0.509 of the factors. It was determined that the factors determined in the scale explained 64.295% of the total variance. In this study, the validity and reliability of the "Teachers' Perception Scale towards Use of Artificial Intelligence Tools in Education" was evaluated. The results of the research show that the scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool in determining teachers' perceptions about the use of artificial intelligence tools in education. © 2024, Ozgen Korkmaz.
