College Students’ AI Utilization and Perception
Abstract
This study conducted a survey of students from five colleges at University A to analyze college students’ AI usage patterns and perceptions, aiming to explore directions for AI literacy education in academic libraries. Students primarily used AI for writing assignments and reports, exam preparation, and creative idea generation, and while they found AI easy to use, they rated the need for separate AI training low. Although AI’s contribution to learning was positively evaluated, the reliability of AI-generated information was perceived as low. In terms of ethical aspects, students tended to underestimate AI’s impact on academic fairness, while psychologically, AI had a positive effect on reducing academic stress with relatively low anxiety levels. There were significant differences among colleges in AI technology acceptance, usage, and ethical-psychological attitudes - the College of Convergence Engineering actively embraced and utilized AI, while the College of Education showed more sensitivity to ethical issues. The need for AI literacy education in academic libraries was highly rated, with high demand for education in verifying information reliability and learning applications, suggesting the need to develop customized educational programs by college that incorporate these elements.
