Background: Generative artificial intelligence (AI) represents a significant technological leap, with platforms like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Baidu's Ernie Bot at the forefront of innovation. This technology has seen widespread adoption across various sectors of society and is anticipated to revolutionise the educational landscape, especially in the domain of tertiary education. However, there is a gap in understanding factors influencing university students' behavioural intention to use generative AI, leading to hesitation in its adoption. Objectives: The primary objective of this study was to investigate the factors that influence university students' behavioural intention to engage with and utilise generative AI. The study sought to delve into the fundamental reasons and obstacles that university students encounter when contemplating the adoption of this technology for their academic endeavours. Methods: The study used a quantitative research design, utilising a revised version of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT2) model. Data were collected from a sample of 380 university students in Changsha, the capital city of Hunan in China. Partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyse the relationships between the variables of the model, which included performance expectancy (PE), effort expectancy (EE), social influence (SI), facilitating conditions (FC), learning value, habit and behavioural intention. Results: The analysis revealed that PE and EE have a direct impact on learning value. Additionally, SI and FC were found to directly affect the formation of habit. Among these factors, learning value emerged as the most potent predictor of university students' behavioural intention to use generative AI. Habit also demonstrated a significant, albeit smaller, effect on behavioural intention. Conclusions: The study's findings underscore the importance of learning value in driving the adoption of generative AI among university students. Efforts to enhance the learning value of generative AI could significantly increase its uptake in higher education. Furthermore, the role of habit, while less pronounced, suggests that consistent exposure and use can foster a greater inclination towards generative AI. These insights provide a foundation for targeted interventions aimed at improving the integration and application of generative AI within educational settings. Stakeholders, including educators, policymakers and designers of generative AI, can leverage these findings to create an environment conducive to the adoption and effective use of generative AI in higher education.

Harnessing AI-based learning media in education: A meta-analysis of its effects on student achievement

Article

Full-text available

Dec 2024

From the most straightforward kind of technology—audiovisual learning—to the application of artificial intelligence in education, technology has been used in education for over 20 years. Despite the growing popularity of AI-based learning media technology, there is still a dearth of reliable empirical data about its effects on student achievements. This meta-analysis aims to investigate the impact of intervention time and combine findings from several studies to paint a more comprehensive picture of the usefulness of AI media in education. In this study, a meta-analysis design is employed in quantitative research. The Publish or Perish tool gathered secondary data from published papers using the Scopus database and Google Scholar—data analysis for group contrast meta-analysis data using the R software. The study's findings demonstrate how using AI-based learning resources greatly impacts students' academic performance. P value total effect size and three moderator variables (continent, gained achievement, and intervention duration < 0.05) show that the aggregate value of the summary effect in AI-based learning media, which integrates technology products with software, web programs, augmented reality, and gamification in increasing student achievement from elementary school to tertiary level from 2019 to 2024, is still providing significant influence. Thus, artificial intelligence (AI) should be used more extensively in preparing learning media to maximize students' academic and non-academic successes.
