Abstract

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has brought an unprecedented intelligent reform to teaching, and the COVID-19 pandemic has provided an opportunity for online and offline hybrid teaching mode. During the pandemic prevention and control period, the application of AI technology has brought about subversive changes in teaching methods, teaching content and teaching environment. This is the result of continuous adjustment in teaching practice in schools around the world, and will be a new characterization of teaching practice in the future. The social crisis caused by COVID-19 requires teachers to adjust their knowledge structure accordingly. Based on the new requirements for teachers in the era of AI and the traditional Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) theory, this paper puts forward a new idea to reconstruct teachers’ knowledge structure by deep integration of AI and TPACK. This study studies how teachers should change their knowledge structure from the four dimensions of Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK), Technological Content Knowledge (TCK), Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK) and TPACK, and puts forward suggestions for the intelligent development of education, in order to provide new theoretical support for teachers’ career development in the Post-pandemic era.

Highlights

  • The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 has had a huge impact on the traditional education, with significant impacts on both basic and higher education around the world

  • People are more open to online education [2], which promotes the continuous advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) education technology

  • With Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) theory being put forward for more than ten years, what impact will the rapid development of AI technology have on teachers’ knowledge structure? In TPACK theory, technical knowledge is always in a state of change relative to discipline knowledge and teaching knowledge [10], which is the most flexible element in TPACK theory

Summary

Research Background

The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 has had a huge impact on the traditional education, with significant impacts on both basic and higher education around the world. On April 26, 2021, the American association for higher education informatization (EDUCAUSE) officially released the 2021 EDUCAUSE Horizon Report®: Teaching and Learning Edition, saying the pandemic would have a long-term impact on higher education. It has entered the Post-pandemic era [1]. In July 2017, The State Council of the People’s Republic of China issued the Development Plan for a New Generation of Artificial Intelligence (No 35 Document in 2017 of the State Council), which proposed to use intelligent technology to accelerate the reform of talent training mode and teaching methods, and to build a new education system including intelligent learning and interactive learning. All the above shows that the application of AI in the field of education has been highly concerned by countries around the world
