Abstract
In the wave of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) applications in education, the current status and attitude of primary school teachers towards the use of GenAI have not yet been fully studied. This study surveyed 78 primary school teachers through an online questionnaire to reveal their understanding level of GneAI, the usage of GenAI, their views on GenAI applied in education, and expectations for future applications of GenAI. The results show that most teachers have some understanding of AI, but less knowledge of GenAI. Despite this, almost all teachers agree that GenAI plays a positive role in assisting teacher teaching and promoting student learning, and they hold an optimistic attitude towards its application prospects. There are differences in the degree of use of GenAI by teachers of different ages and young teachers are more inclined to use AI. Teachers of different identities have different preferences for the content of GenAI-assisted work. Liberal arts and science teachers prefer intelligent search and intelligent homework correction, while art and physical education teachers and middle and senior teachers prefer personalized teaching and personalized assessment. Finally, the author recommends relevant departments strengthen the use of AI in primary education, develop practical teaching and assessment systems, and paying attention to the resource management and protection.
