Survey Finds Majority of Government School Teachers Positive About AI Use
A survey by JanAI of 797 government-school teachers across Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Jharkhand, and Maharashtra found that 26% regularly use AI, while 72% view it positively. Teachers primarily use AI as a teaching aid to simplify concepts and prepare materials. Despite infrastructure gaps, many access AI via personal devices. While 86% believe AI enhances their effectiveness, concerns exist about student overdependence. Teachers generally do not see AI as a threat to their jobs. The report highlights readiness, not resistance, as the main challenge for AI adoption in government schools.
