The Degree of Suitability of a Proposed Training Program Based on the Communication Theory to Employ Faculty Members at the University of Jordan for Artificial Intelligence Applications

Abstract

The current study aimed to identify the degree of suitability of a proposed training program based on the communication theory to employ faculty members at the University of Jordan for artificial intelligence applications. The descriptive survey methodology was used, a questionnaire tool was developed, which consisted of (33) items, distributed over (5) domains, and its validity and reliability were confirmed. A simple random sample consisting of (332) faculty members was used. The results of the study concluded that the degree of suitability of the proposed training program based on the communication theory to employ artificial intelligence applications as a whole was medium, and the axes were arranged as follows: (training program philosophy, training needs) at a high degree, and (training program design, training program content, and evaluation) at a medium degree.

The study recommended providing supportive training and designing electronic learning environments based on the communicative theory, to enable faculty members to enhance their digital skills and effectively integrate artificial intelligence into teaching and the production of interactive content.
