The Factors Influencing Teacher Education Students’ Willingness to Adopt Artificial Intelligence Technology for Information-Based Teaching

Abstract

This study, rooted in the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), investigates the multifaceted factors that influence teacher education students in Information-Based Teaching to embrace artificial intelligence technologies. To enrich the TAM framework, we have incorporated elements such as Artificial Intelligence Literacy (AIL), Subjective Norms (SN), and Output Quality (OQ), with the aim of examining their respective effects on the willingness of teacher education students to adopt AI technologies. To substantiate this theoretical framework, we conducted empirical research involving teacher education students from various Chinese universities. Our findings affirm the robustness of the TAM in explaining the inclination of teacher education students, engaged in the actual teaching process within a digitized educational environment, to adopt AI technologies. Through this model, our study underscores the pivotal role of Artificial Intelligence Literacy (AIL) in influencing educators’ acceptance of AI technologies, establishing a foundational cornerstone for subsequent explorations within the theoretical landscape of the TAM. In this study, we identify Perceived Usefulness (PU) and Artificial Intelligence Literacy (AIL) as the primary factors affecting Behavioral Intention (BI) to use AI technologies. Consequently, to foster broader adoption of AI technologies by educators, it is essential to emphasize their tangible benefits and superiority in teaching, with the goal of promoting the extended utilization of AI in digitalized instruction.

  • Empirical research on AI to support teacher professional development remains scarce.

    “Despite the growing discourse on the potential of AI to support teacher professional development through intelligent tutoring systems, AI-driven feedback, and adaptive teaching simulations, empirical research on this topic remains scarce [14,52].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
