The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Academic Achievement and Scientific Research Among University Students: A Field Study on a Sample of Students from The Department of Sociology at Souk Ahras University

Abstract

This study aims to shed light on one of the most prominent technological innovation of the last decade, represented by Artificial Intelligence (AI), and the transformations it has brought about upon entering the educational and scientific research of university students, considering that these tools provide students with diverse methods for exam preparation, supported by simulated questions. Furthermore, they facilitate the review and summarization of lectures, not to mention providing smoother and easier scientific research methods; it’s often sufficient for a student to pose questions in a correct, comprehensible, and simplified format to find what they are looking for with the click of a button. To this end, we conducted this research on a sample of 120 students from the Department of Sociology at Souk Ahras University, relying on a questionnaire as a research tool and employing the descriptive approach to analyze and interpret the results of this study.
