THE EFFECT OF USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) AND EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE ON TEACHER PERFORMANCE

Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the effect of using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Emotional Intelligence (EI) on teacher performance. Technological developments in the world of education are increasingly rapid, while emotional factors remain an important element in successful learning interactions. The method used in this research is a quantitative approach with survey techniques, involving 98 teachers from SMA Negeri 1 and SMA Negeri 7 South Halmahera. The instrument used is a questionnaire that has gone through validity and reliability testing. For data analysis, multiple linear regression techniques were used. The research results show that the use of artificial intelligence and emotional intelligence has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance, both partially and simultaneously. The use of AI supports teacher work effectiveness in planning, implementing and evaluating learning, while emotional intelligence contributes to teachers' ability to build interpersonal relationships, manage stress and create a positive learning climate. These findings confirm that the combination of mastery of technology and emotional intelligence is an important factor in improving teacher professionalism and quality of work.
