Percepción del uso de herramientas de IA en docentes universitarios de la ciudad de Guayaquil.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the perception of using Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools among university professors in Guayaquil, Ecuador. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used to conduct the research. An exhaustive review of existing literature on the perception of AI in education was carried out. Regarding the methodology, a transversal design was used since it allowed obtaining current information from the study. This research is quantitative since it involved the collection and analysis of data about the perception of AI among university professors in Guayaquil. Finally, the results indicated that university professors in Guayaquil have a favorable attitude towards the integration of AI in education. The professors are optimistic about the potential of AI to improve student learning, can facilitate the personalization of student learning, and are willing to invest time and effort in learning to use AI-based tools. These findings are consistent with research on the perception of AI use in education, which has shown that AI can have a positive impact on student learning, teacher workload, and teaching efficiency.
