THE IMPACT OF ETHICAL GUIDELINES TRAINING ON AI USE AMONG STUDENTS IN ANAMBRA PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES

Abstract

This research examined the impact of ethical guidelines training on AI use among students in Anambra public universities. It was a quasi-experimental research with two groups- the control and the experimental groups. This study involved 100 participants, with 50 randomly assigned to the experimental group receiving ethical guidelines training and 50 to the control group, which did not receive the training. Descriptive statistics, specifically the mean, independent T-Test were employed to address research questions. The findings of this study showed that participants in the experimental group had higher improvement scores in AI use in terms of awareness and attitudes. The findings show that integrating ethical guidelines training into education offers several key advantages, as this can enhance awareness and attitudes towards responsible AI use among learners. The results of this study contribute significantly to other related studies that focus on promoting responsible AI use in education.
