Bu çalışma, sosyal bilgiler öğretmenliği lisans programı öğrencilerinin yapay zeka (YZ) farkındalık düzeylerini araştırmaktadır. Ayrıca, farkındalık düzeyinin cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeyine göre önemli ölçüde farklılık gösterip göstermediğini de ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Nicel araştırma yaklaşımı kullanılarak betimsel bir anket modeli uygulanmıştır. Uygun örnekleme teknikleri kullanılarak bir devlet üniversitesinden 128 öğrenci örneklem olarak seçilmiştir. Verilerin analizi için bağımsız örneklem t-testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA) kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bulguları, sosyal bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının AI farkındalık düzeylerinin çoğunlukla yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Erkek öğrencilerin farkındalık düzeyi kız öğrencilerden daha yüksektir. Ayrıca, üst sınıflarda farkındalık puanında önemli bir artış olmuştur. Sonuçlar, sosyal bilgiler öğretmen adaylarının AI teknolojileri konusundaki farkındalıklarının demografik değişkenlere göre farklılık gösterdiğini ve eğitim süreci boyunca güçlendiğini göstermektedir.

Determining the Artificial Intelligence Awareness of Undergraduate Students in Social Studies Teacher Education

Öz

This study investigates the awareness levels of artificial intelligence (AI) of social studies teacher education undergraduate programme students. It also aims to find out whether the awareness level differs significantly by gender and grade level. A descriptive survey model was implemented using a quantitative research approach. A state university’s sample of 128 students was selected using appropriate sampling techniques. For analysing the data, independent samples t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used. The research findings show the levels of AI awareness for the social studies teacher candidates are mostly high. The awareness level of male students is higher than female students. Moreover, there was significant increase in awareness score in the upper grades. The results indicate that social studies teacher candidates’ awareness of AI technologies differs based on demographic variables and strengthens throughout the education process.
