Abstract

Research have widely highlighted the benefits of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing dynamic education systems. This study explores whether opportunities to use AI, perceived importance of AI, and attitudes towards AI are critical variables in motivating students to learn. A quantitative survey approach was used, using a questionnaire with a sample of 331 UiTM Kelantan Branch students. Of these, 208 students participated in the online survey. The results show that the opportunity to use AI and its perceived importance are relevant to students’ motivation to study at the higher education level. In addition, the findings reveal a significant and strong relationship between students’ attitudes and motivation to incorporate AI into their learning process. However, the need for proper intervention in the use of AI must be considered to ensure that quality education, which prioritises student development, is achieved beyond the mere integration of technology.
