The Effectiveness of using Artificial Intelligence for Building Professional Competencies of Future Specialists in Art Majors in Higher Education Institutions

Abstract

The research aims to study the impact of the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in higher education institutions (HEIs) on building professional competencies of future art specialists. The research employed quantitative and qualitative methods (in particular, modeling methods, pedagogical experiments, and survey of respondents to assess the impact of AI tools on building professional competencies). The author’s definition of the concept of “professional competencies of art specialists” is proposed. Targeted tools were selected and used for building components of professional competencies. For example, VocalAnalysis AI tools were used to form the perceptual component — for students majoring in Musical Art; Art Vision AI — for students majoring in Fine Arts; ChoreoVision AI — for students majoring in Choreography. The results of the study show that students rated their level of ability to use AI as higher than medium. The questionnaire designed to study the impact of the use of AI on building professional competencies of future specialists in art majors, demonstrated a high level of agreement between the assessment of the impact of the use of AI tools on the formation of various components of professional competencies. Further research can be aimed at the development and testing of an algorithm for objective expert evaluation of specific AI tools for the implementation of art projects by students of the specified art majors.
