The Impact of Employing Artificial Intelligence Tools on Developing Electronic Portfolio Design Skills Among Teachers in Mafraq District

Summary/Abstract: Background/purpose. Rapid technological advances are reshaping education, primarily through artificial intelligence (AI) tools that enrich electronic portfolios—key assessment artifacts that showcase teachers’ professional growth. Despite their potential to improve planning, organization, and digital media use, teachers in Mafraq District employ AI tools sparingly. This study examined the impact of AI applications on teachers’ portfolio-design skills. Materials/methods. A descriptive–analytical design was adopted for this research. The data were gathered through a questionnaire, validated for reliability and content accuracy, which was administered to a stratified random sample of 322 teachers from a population of ≈3,200. The questionnaire measured competence in planning, organization, and digital-media utilization when AI tools were integrated. Descriptive statistics and inferential tests were used to assess overall effects and demographic differences. Results. AI integration had a significant positive effect on portfolio design skills. The digital-media utilization domain recorded the highest relative mean (83%), followed by the planning and organization domain (80.2%). No statistically significant differences attributable to teaching experience or academic qualifications were observed, indicating uniform benefits across subgroups. Conclusion. AI applications demonstrably enhance teachers’ capacity to create robust electronic portfolios. Teacher training programmes should therefore embed AI-based portfolio design. At the same time, educational authorities provide supportive digital infrastructure, guidance manuals, and practical workshops to develop teachers’ digital design competencies in line with smart education goals.
