다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Purpose: This study investigate prospective teachers' perceptions of AI education and AI teachers. Method: For this purpose, after conducting a discussion class, data obtained through questionnaires, reflection journals, and interviews were collected and a constant comparison method among qualitative analysis methods was performed. Results: First, about AI education and AI teachers, prospective teachers responded, ‘The positive and good things are helpful: supporter,’ ‘I am concerned about the negative and skeptical things: Concerns,’ and ‘I am looking forward to the fun and interesting things: Expectator.’ Awareness of AI education and AI teachers will either be helpful or act as a complex factor in education, such as concerns and expectations. However, AI teachers were perceived as merely assisting learning, and were negative and skeptical about emotional support, social skills, and creativity development. Conclusion: These results reflect the perceptions of prospective teachers, suggesting that systematic education using AI can be implemented in teacher training colleges, and that development and research of AI curriculum or AI-based educational programs are necessary.
