Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study is to find the effects of the international training program for enhancing intelligent capabilities through blended learning on computational thinking, artificial intelligence (AI) competency, and core competencies for the future society in graduated students enrolled in the Smart Information Communication Technology (SMART ICT) course. The teaching model followed the ADDIE framework. Methods: This study is a quasi-experimental study based on nonequivalent control group design. Study subjects were assigned to an experimental (n = 20) or control group (n = 20). The experimental group participated in the international training program in the blended learning form, real-time online classes (60 min per session for a week, six sessions) and face-to-face classes (4–8 h per session for 9 days, six sessions). The variables were measured with a self-report questionnaire and were evaluated before, right after, and in the 12th week of the program. Results: The AI competency of the experimental group was observed to be significantly changed at the points of time (F = 6.76, p = 0.002), and in comparison with that of a different group (F = 9.77, p = 0.003). Conclusions: This study suggests applying an international training program based on blended learning to strengthen intelligence capabilities such as artificial intelligence capabilities.
