Revolutionizing Teacher Preparation with AI: A Triadic Approach
This study evaluates a structured intervention combining Intelligent-TPACK, SQD model, and curated AI tools to enhance pre-service teachers' AI competencies. It demonstrates significant gains in knowledge, lesson planning, and positive attitudes, highlighting the necessity of systematic training over self-directed exploration.

High Gains
Self-reported Intelligent-TPACK scores showed significant improvements across all dimensions (I-TK, I-TPK, I-TCK, I-TPACK) for the experimental group, with I-TPK showing the largest effect size (d=0.78). This highlights the effectiveness of structured intervention in enhancing teachers' AI competencies.

Teacher Confidence & Challenges
Building Confidence: Participants reported that direct hands-on experiences with AI tools enhanced their technical skills and content knowledge. One participant noted, "I now know how to use AI for making instructional videos." Another found AI provided "ideas and frameworks for my instructional design" and "complete reading texts and test items." AI was also leveraged as a reflective partner, e.g., for micro-teaching analysis.
Leveraging AI: PSTs designed activities strategically embedding AI for specific instructional goals, demonstrating growing technological pedagogical knowledge. One teacher used AI for a "team competition where an AI-generated word list was used for a quiz" and Seewo for automated assessment. Another used DeepSeek for "real-time feedback on students' posters".
Challenges: Despite gains, participants struggled with critical adaptation, including crafting effective prompts and synthesizing different AI tools. A participant remarked, "The prompts I give might be inaccurate, so the AI doesn't produce the result I want. It requires changing the prompts repeatedly." Another noted the difficulty in "mixing tools together effectively for a teaching purpose."
Positive Shift
The experimental group reported a significant increase in perceived usefulness (d=0.56) and a significant reduction in perceived pressure (d=0.51) towards AI-integrated instruction. This indicates the intervention demystified AI's pedagogical affordances and fostered a sense of control among participants.

Your AI Integration Roadmap
A structured approach to cultivate AI-ready pre-service teachers, inspired by the triadic instructional design model.
Phase 1: Foundational AI Literacy (I-TK)
PSTs engage in hands-on interaction with generic AI tools and understand their basic functionalities, limitations, and the five big ideas of AI. This builds essential technical knowledge.
Phase 2: Content Integration (I-TCK)
PSTs use generative AI to create subject-specific learning materials and assessments tailored to diverse learner needs, leveraging AI for content generation and pedagogical personalization.
Phase 3: Pedagogical Deepening (I-TPK)
PSTs analyze expert video demonstrations of AI integration, evaluate automated assessment systems, design chatbots for oral practice, and model questioning strategies to solidify AI's pedagogical contributions.
Phase 4: Collaborative Design & Reflection (I-TPACK)
PSTs collaboratively design AI-integrated lesson plans and conduct micro-teaching sessions. AI-powered virtual teaching assistants are used for feedback and reflection, ensuring coherent alignment of AI tools, pedagogy, and content.
