Abstract

While artificial intelligence (AI) has been integral in daily life for decades, the release of open generative AI (GAI) such as ChatGPT has considerably accelerated scholars’ interest in the impact of GAI in education. Both promises and fears of GAI have been becoming apparent. This quantitative study explored teachers' perspectives on GAI and its potential implementation in education. A diverse group of teachers (N = 147) completed a validated survey sharing their views on GAI technology in terms of its use, integration, potential, and concerns. Overall, the teachers express positive perspectives towards GAI regardless of their teaching style. The findings of the study suggest that the more frequently teachers used GAI, the more positive their perspectives became. The teachers believed that GAI could enhance their professional development and could be a valuable tool for students. Although no guarantee exists that teachers’ perspectives translate into actions, previous research shows that technology integration and diffusion is highly dependent on teachers’ initial views (Ismail et al., 2010; Sugar et al., 2004). The findings of this study have implications on how GAI may be integrated in teaching and learning practices.

  • Teachers' perceptions of GenAI have been found to become more favorable with greater use, suggesting that experience may reduce hesitation and support broader acceptance in educational practice.

    “Similarly, teachers' perceptions of GenAI have been found to become more favorable with greater use, suggesting that experience may reduce hesitation and support broader acceptance in educational practice [15].”

    From Engineering student perceptions of generative AI use in learning trust judgment and information seeking (2026) · cites this paper as [15]

    In ‘Teachers’ Perceptions of GAI Integration in Education’ (page unavailable), the authors report positive attitudes and suggest that prior experience may help explain them. The ‘Implications’ section (page unavailable) suggests greater exposure might increase confidence and willingness to use AI. The cited passages do not establish that perceptions became more favorable as teachers used GenAI more frequently; that stronger finding is not supported by the body passages reviewed.

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.
