The Impact Of Artificial Intelligence On Algerian Learners' Critical Thinking

Authors : Kerma Mokhtar .

Abstract

This study seeks to investigate the perspectives of Algerian university teachers about the challenges that arise when learners use artificial intelligence tools in their academic endeavours, and the potential impact of these challenges on the quality of education and academic outcomes. This research used a mixed-methods case study design, using quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis methods to comprehensively investigate and analyse the identified challenges. The study included 60 teachers from three Algerian universities during the 2023 academic year. The identified issues include overreliance on technology, superficial learning, lack of creativity and innovation, academic dishonesty, and lack of collaborative learning. These results emphasize the need for further research to develop methods that enhance cognitive achievement and quality learning in Algeria.
