Abstract

It is feared that artificial intelligence, which develops rapidly as a result of the studies and continues to gain more place in all areas of our lives with its new abilities, will disable people in almost all professions in the future with the new abilities it will acquire. The aim of this research is to reveal scenarios in which artificial intelligence will take place in education in the light of the same concerns and examine these scenarios in line with expert opinions. In the research, qualitative research method was adopted and the opinions of the participants were analyzed in depth with a phenomenological approach. As a data collection tool, semi-structured interview questions prepared by the researchers were used. The study group of the research consists of 10 academic staff who are experts in the field of artificial intelligence, working at various universities in Turkey, reached by snowball sampling method. The data obtained as a result of the interviews were analyzed by descriptive analysis method. In line with the analysis, the data were gathered under the sub-themes of possible benefits, concerns and applicability related to the scenarios. According to the findings, many benefits will be provided in scenarios where artificial intelligence replaces the teacher and takes the role of principal in school management. According to the findings, these scenarios also raise many concerns. According to another finding of the research, artificial intelligence will not be able to replace the teacher or school principal with its current abilities, and it will be more beneficial for the teacher and the school principal to remain in the role of assistant unless necessary developments are made.

Yapay Zeka ve Eğitimde Gelecek Senaryoları

Abstract

Yapılan çalışmalar neticesinde hızlı gelişim gösteren, edindiği yeni yeteneklerle hayatımızın her alanında daha fazla yer edinmeye devam eden yapay zekanın, edineceği yeni yeteneklerle gelecekte hemen hemen tüm mesleklerde insanı devre dışı bırakmasından endişe edilmektedir. Bu araştırmanın amacı aynı endişeler ışığında yapay zekanın eğitimde yer alacağı senaryolar ortaya koyarak bu senaryoları uzman görüşleri doğrultusunda incelemektir. Araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemi benimsenmiş olup, katılımcıların görüşleri fenomonolojik bir yaklaşımla derinlemesine analiz edilmiştir. Veri toplama aracı olarak, araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme soruları kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu, kartopu örnekleme yöntemi ile ulaşılmış Türkiye’de çeşitli üniversitelerde görevli yapay zekâ alanında uzman 10 akademik personel oluşturmaktadır. Görüşmeler neticesinde elde edilen veriler betimsel analiz yöntemi ile çözümlenmiştir. Çözümlemeler doğrultusunda veriler, senaryolarla ilgili olası faydalar, endişeler ve uygulanabilirlik alt temaları altında toplanmıştır. Bulgulara göre yapay zekânın öğretmenin yerini aldığı ve okul yönetiminde müdür rolünü aldığı senaryolarda birçok fayda sağlanacaktır. Bulgulara göre bu senaryolar aynı zamanda birçok endişeyi beraberinde getirmektedir. Araştırmanın bir diğer bulgusuna göre yapay zekâ günümüzdeki mevcut yetenekleriyle öğretmenin ya da okul müdürünün yerini alamayacaktır ve gerekli gelişimler sağlanmadığı sürece öğretmenin ve okul müdürünün asistanı rolünde kalması daha faydalı olacaktır.
