Teacher Attitudes Towards AI Integration in the English Classroom
(2024-08-13) Rukiqi, Alma; University of Gothenburg / The Board of Teacher Education; Göteborgs universitet / Lärarutbildningsnämnden
The purpose of this study is to explore teacher attitudes regarding the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into English teaching classrooms. The data was collected by interviewing six English language teachers at a Swedish upper secondary school. The aim is to understand what attitudes they may have, if their knowledge of AI influences their attitudes, and how AI has changed teaching and assessment. The results of the study show that teachers have mixed feelings about AI integration, some are positive, some negative, but they all acknowledge that there could be benefits and drawbacks. According to the findings, teachers who have more knowledge about AI tools have positive attitudes, whereas teachers with less knowledge have negative attitudes. Furthermore, it seems that AI integration into the English learning classroom has more advantages than disadvantages, as long as it is used in an appropriate way. The study also found that teaching and assessment have changed drastically since AI tools like Chat-GPT became popular.
