Analysis of Artificial Intelligence Assistance in Inquiry Learning Model on Students' Critical Thinking
Keywords:
Artificial Intelligence, Inquiry Learning, Critical Thinking, Physics, Chat GPTAbstract
Physics education should focus on developing critical thinking skills, which are essential in the 21st century. However, conventional teaching methods are often ineffective. The impact of Inquiry learning supported by Artificial Intelligence (AI) on students' critical thinking skills is the focus of this study. A quasi-experimental design was applied to two classes in this research. The method utilized a pre-test-post-test control group design. Data was collected through critical thinking skills tests, and independent t-tests were used for analysis. The results of the study showed that the improvement in students' critical thinking abilities through personalization and adaptive feedback indicates that AI media supports the learning process. This research contributes to constructivist theory and technology-based learning, providing practical guidelines for educators to enhance the quality of physics education in high schools and equivalent institutions. The ethical use of Artificial Intelligence in education systems and the development of inclusive educational policies are two important outcomes of this research.
