Abstract
Background and Objectives: The 21st century has witnessed the rapid advancement of technologies that have transformed human life. Artificial intelligence, one of these emerging technologies, has the potential to fundamentally change various sectors, including education. In recent years, artificial intelligence has been utilized in educational systems to enhance the quality of learning and teaching. This research, considering the increasing importance of artificial intelligence in education and its impact on the role of teachers, conducts a thorough examination of the role of this technology in teacher leadership in the educational process and seeks to identify the opportunities presented by artificial intelligence for improving teachers’ leadership and performance.
Methods: The present research is qualitative and of a narrative nature. The study population consisted of a total of 70 articles, from which 30 articles were selected based on acceptance criteria. The critical Glaser tool was also used to ensure the quality of the selected articles. For data analysis, a coding method was employed, initially extracting 162 open codes. Subsequently, 18 axial codes were identified, and finally, 3 selective codes representing the opportunities of artificial intelligence in teacher leadership during the educational process were recognized.
Findings: The findings of the research indicated opportunities for artificial intelligence in teacher leadership in the educational process across three categories:1.Planning: Assisting teachers in delivering intelligent content to students, providing information about students’ educational backgrounds, automated scheduling and planning of lessons, designing customized training, offering teaching methods based on individual student needs, and providing intelligent platforms for self-learning.2. Implementation: Making the teaching process more engaging through chatbots, fostering active student participation in the learning process, improving the quality of education and the learning experience, creating independent learning opportunities for students, personalized instruction, and providing an exploratory learning environment.3.Evaluation: Automated grading of assignments and exams, providing feedback on the effectiveness of educational performance, managing data related to the evaluation of assignments and exams, assisting students in improving their learning, predicting students’ academic performance, and making data-driven decisions based on evaluations.
Conclusions: Artificial intelligence serves as a transformative force in the field of education, playing a central role in improving the quality and personalization of the learning process. AI can be used as a powerful tool to enhance teacher leadership and improve the overall educational process. This technology offers tools for lesson planning, enhances teaching methods, and accurately assesses student performance. It not only assists teachers in their leadership roles but also provides access to extensive educational resources and enables immediate feedback.
By analyzing learning data, AI facilitates the provision of personalized educational content tailored to the individual needs of each student. In this way, it helps optimize the learning experience and increases interaction between teachers and students. The educational implications of AI technology will transform how students learn and how teachers operate. Ultimately, the use of artificial intelligence in education will improve educational systems, leading to enhanced learning quality and improved student outcomes worldwide.
