TL;DR
Students reported using Gen AI tools for academic purposes, and the results indicate challenges related to writing prompts, concerns about academic integrity and plagiarism, language and financial barriers, over-reliance on AI, and a lack of institutional guidance.
The results suggest that Gen AI tools are already integrated into students' academic practices and locally provide evidence to support the development of institutional guidelines and the responsible use of Gen AI tools in Libyan higher education.
It is suggested that AI technologies have considerable potential to enrich higher education; however, their successful implementation requires careful attention to ethical, technological, and pedagogical considerations to ensure that educational benefits are achieved while minimizing associated risks.
This study examines the growing influence of artificial intelligence (AI) tools on student research in higher education, focusing on both their opportunities and challenges, and recommends comprehensive institutional guidelines, targeted training programs, and ethical frameworks to ensure responsible integration of AI.
The findings revealed that undergraduate students had a positive attitude towards the use of Artificial Intelligence in education and a statistically significant difference was found between Arts and Science students with Science students demonstrating a more positive attitude than Arts students.
Generative AI tools are increasingly embedded in university study practices, yet institution-level evidence remains limited, particularly in underrepresented regions. This study examined the frequency and patterns of AI use among undergraduates at Maaref University of Applied Sciences in northern Syria and explored its...
Positive student acceptance alongside persistent technical and feedback-related challenges are indicated, highlighting the importance of AI literacy, responsible use and institutional support.
