Readiness of the student community for using artificial intelligence in higher education

Abstract

What challenges or opportunities exist when using artificial intelligence (AI) at the university? This work presents the experience lived in a Futurist Applications of AI in Education Workshop in which professionals from different educational levels, roles, and areas worked together to construct proposals to enhance the use of AI in higher education. As a parallel research process, a questionnaire was applied to inquire about the perceptions of the uses of AI and the personal and professional applications of managers, professors, students, and stakeholders. The results reflected a broad intention to understand, use, and implement AI to develop and strengthen the processes of access, teaching, and learning in higher education.
