Özet
This phenomenological study aims to investigate the views of Turkish course teachers on the use of artificial intelligence (AI). The research is shaped around the role of AI in education, the challenges faced by teachers while using AI, its effects on student motivation, ethical issues around AI, and teachers’ predictions regarding AI’s role in education in the future. The study employs a phenomenological approach, and the participants were determined through criterion sampling. A total of 12 Turkish teachers were interviewed, and the data were collected in written form via a semi-structured interview form. The data were then analysed using thematic analysis, which yielded five main themes and three sub-themes. The results show that teachers are positive about the potential of AI to increase interaction and creativity in the classroom. However, challenges such as lack of training, inadequate technological infrastructure and reliability issues are also identified. The positive impact of AI applications on student motivation makes the classroom more fun and contributes to the development of students' independent learning skills. Ethical issues, privacy and data protection are highlighted by teachers. Expectations for the future are that the role of AI in education will increase and that educational policies and curricula should be updated. Therefore, in order to realise the potential of AI in education, teacher training, strengthening the technological infrastructure and ethical issues need to be addressed. © 2024, Duzce University, Faculty of Education.
