Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Since generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has become accessible to the general public, it has established revolutionary benefits for the education industry workforce. Both teachers and students can benefit from GenAI in a myriad of ways. This research paper delves deeply into the multifaceted positive and negative educational affordances of the use of GenAI while also exploring future possibilities for institutions, teachers, and students and the long-term implications of this new, rapidly evolving technology. This paper explores the five domains proposed by UNESCO in the competency framework for teachers that sets a global trajectory for policy planners, educational leaders, and administrators to consider while developing faculty development programs within their own contexts. The conclusions drawn from this research describe the possible future direction for the professional development of teachers to thrive in the GenAI era.
