Adequate support, training, and resources should be provided to university teachers to help them navigate the challenges associated with AI implementation, including finding effective ways to utilize AI for student learning, addressing potential negative impacts, and acquiring necessary skills. AI offers opportunities for university teachers to innovate their teaching methods, establish better connections with students, and foster collaboration among educators, thereby creating a more engaging and effective learning environment.
Variations in perspectives based on gender and current role suggest that targeted interventions and support should be considered for different demographics to ensure inclusive and equitable AI integration. Further, educators with higher subjective AI expertise tend to perceive a greater impact of AI, fewer challenges, and more opportunities for collaboration and innovation. This highlights the importance of developing educators’ AI skills and knowledge to fully leverage the potential of AI in education. Addressing usage difficulties and aligning AI implementation with educational goals are crucial for addressing challenges and maximizing opportunities for collaboration and innovation.
Implications for policy and practice stemming from these findings include several key recommendations. Firstly, policymakers in higher education should prioritize providing support, training, and resources for university teachers to enhance their understanding and use of AI in education. Secondly, professional development programs should focus on building educators’ AI skills and knowledge to effectively integrate AI into university teaching practices. Thirdly, collaborative platforms and networks should be established to facilitate knowledge sharing and collaboration among educators, promoting innovative approaches to AI integration. Furthermore, policymakers and educational leaders should promote diversity and inclusivity in AI implementation by addressing variations in perspectives based on gender and university teachers’ current roles. Lastly, partnerships between policymakers, educators, researchers, and industry stakeholders should be fostered to promote innovation, share expertise, and ensure the alignment of AI technologies with universities’ educational goals.
There are some limitations associated with the current research. Firstly, the limited sample size and demographics may not fully represent the broader population of educators. Secondly, the study relies on self-reported measures, which are subject to potential biases and inaccuracies. Finally, the study assesses subjective AI expertise, which may not align with actual proficiency in working with AI technologies.
Accordingly, several future research directions emerged. Firstly, combining qualitative and quantitative methods could provide a deeper understanding of educators’ experiences with AI in education. Qualitative research can offer insights into the nuanced perceptions, challenges, and opportunities associated with AI implementation. Secondly, conducting experimental or quasi-experimental studies to evaluate the effectiveness of specific AI interventions on student learning outcomes, teacher practices, and educational outcomes could offer evidence-based recommendations for implementing AI in educational settings. Thirdly, investigating the ethical implications of AI in education, such as privacy concerns, algorithmic bias, and equity issues, is crucial. Future research should explore ways to mitigate these challenges and ensure responsible AI use in educational contexts. Lastly, exploring students’ perceptions and experiences with AI in education is essential to understanding how students interact with AI tools, their preferences, and the impact of AI on their motivation, engagement, and learning outcomes.
