“…The sub-dimensions of ethical climate and the sub-dimensions of organisational commitment constructs examined revealed strong internal reliability, and discriminant validity for each construct within the context of College of Education Tutors. Furthermore, the application of the Ethical climate questionnaire and organisational commitment questionnaire confirms the appropriateness of using this instrument to measure other employees (tutors) in the Colleges of Education [7,78].…”

“…The model fit for the new model (ECQ-22 item) did not meet the standards specified by the selected researchers, despite the fact that the ECQ-22 item model fit better than the ECQ-26 item model. According to this study, future researchers who want to replicate or re-examine ECQ in the Ghanaian setting should use the ECQ-22 items rather than the ECQ-26 items due to cultural differences [78]. The final model with 22-items is shown in Fig.…”

Aims: Ethical climate is one of the vital features shaping intra-organisational relationships and tutors attitudes, thereby having an influence on organisational outcomes. Therefore, understanding the relationships among ethical climate, job satisfaction and organisational commitment is an important research area that needs to be researched. The main purpose of the study was to examine ethical climate and job satisfaction via mediating role of organisational commitment among College of Education tutors in Ghana. Study Design: The descriptive cross-sectional survey design was employed in the study. Place and Duration of Study: The study was carried out from 2019 to 2020, among College of Education tutors in Ghana. Methodology: The quantitative approach with the positivist paradigm was adopted for the study. A total of 250 participants through a multistage sampling procedures (proportionate and simple random sampling) were used in the study. Ethical climate questionnaire, job satisfaction scale and organisational commitment questionnaire were adapted and used in the study. Validation of the instruments were carried out using Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Results: The results revealed that ethical climate was a substantial predictor of job satisfaction, [b = 1.11; SE = .009; Boot95%CI (.1.091, 1.128)]. The result discovered that a surge in ethical climate would lead to 1.11 increase in job satisfaction. The results again, showed that the direct effect of organisational commitment on job satisfaction was statistically significant, B = 1.108, Boot95%CI [1.090, 1.127]. Further, with the introduction of organisational commitment, the indirect effect of ethical climate on job satisfaction was not statistically significant, B = .0011, Boot95%CI [-.0011, .0043]. This suggests that organisational commitment does not mediates the relationship between ethical climate and job satisfaction. Conclusion: This study confirms the relationship between ethical climate and job satisfaction among tutors in the Colleges of Education. When the ethical climate of tutors increases the likelihood tutors would be satisfied with their teaching job.

“…AI has become an integral part of the education process, with materials and software equipped with skills such as abstract thinking, learning, adapting to new situations, and interaction, mimicking intelligent beings [6,7]. The use of these features and other active learning methods has found a place in the field of education, leading to an increasing number of studies utilizing artificial intelligence [8].…”

The purpose of this article is to identify the differences in various aspects of the perception of artificial intelligence by students of economics and business studies at different levels of study and, on this basis, to formulate recommendations both to the higher education institutions themselves, which educate in the field of economic and business sciences, as well as to curriculum designers. First, we utilized descriptive statistics to analyze the responses for each construct among undergraduate and postgraduate students. In the second part, we employed the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tests to assess the normality of data distribution. Finally, in the third part, we employed the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test to identify the differences between undergraduate and postgraduate students. The results show that statistically significant differences can be identified especially in how students of both study levels see and understand the importance of AI. Although we did not identify significant differences between students of both levels in how they see their role in the future labor market, which will be (or already is) characterized by artificial intelligence, we must emphasize that students of both levels evaluate their roles modestly in this respect. Therefore, on this basis, we have made recommendations for more active development and integration of AI in the study process; the article presents important suggestions for improving education to prepare students for the business world of artificial intelligence.

— The aim of this study is to determine the artificial intelligence awareness levels of students. The research was carried out in the fall semester of 2021–2022. The research was designed in accordance with the qualitative research design for the detailed analysis of the data. The research consists of students studying at the engineering faculties of the university. In the research sample, there are 98 students determined by the purposeful sampling method. The data were collected with artificial intelligence awareness research questions prepared by the researcher. Content analysis was carried out for the detailed analysis of the research data. The findings showed that the artificial intelligence awareness levels of the students within the scope of the research were at a good level. According to the results of the research, it was concluded that the students’ knowledge about the concept of mind and intelligence was insufficient. From the opinions of university students, it was concluded that the use of technology in education is important. It can be said that there are concerns arising from the findings of the advantages and disadvantages of artificial intelligence, as it is a new technological product. It has emerged that artificial intelligence will take away human jobs. As an advantage, it has been concluded that artificial intelligence tools facilitate every field, as well as their use in education will facilitate teaching.
