Abstract

This study aims to explore the role of using artificial intelligence tools in enhancing the role of the professor in the educational process from the perspective of university students. An electronic questionnaire was distributed to 152 university students from various disciplines and universities in Algeria, and the results were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS programs. The results showed a statistically significant positive effect of using artificial intelligence tools on the role of the professor and a negative but weak effect of the level of familiarity with information and communication technology as a moderator variable on the effect of artificial intelligence tools on the professor’s role

Keywords: Attitudes, digital literacy, EFL learners, information and communication technologies, university students
