Abstract

The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought significant changes to the learning process in higher education, particularly in enhancing students' learning motivation. This study aims to analyze the level of AI utilization in students’ learning activities and its influence on learning motivation and critical thinking skills. The study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive-exploratory design supported by simple qualitative data. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires and open-ended questions from students of the Educational Technology Study Program at Universitas Negeri Surabaya Magetan Campus 5. The results showed that AI utilization is in the high category and has become an integral part of students’ learning process. AI serves as a reference source, a tool to understand complex materials, and a support for task completion, thereby increasing learning effectiveness and efficiency. The use of AI also proved to enhance students’ learning motivation, activeness, and self-confidence. However, a tendency of over-reliance on AI was found, which has the potential to reduce critical thinking skills due to the cognitive offloading phenomenon. The study concludes that AI has an ambivalent role as both a supporter and a potential risk in learning. Therefore, the utilization of AI must be balanced with critical AI literacy and appropriate pedagogical strategies so that the technology functions as a supporter of the thinking process rather than a substitute.

Abstract

This research examines the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in developing the critical thinking skills of students in the Educational Technology program. In the digital age, critical thinking is essential for objectively evaluating information, solving problems, and making rational decisions. However, much of the learning in higher education is still one-way, limiting the development of these skills. Thru literature review, this study examines the relationship between AI usage and critical thinking skills, specifically in the context of higher education. The results show that AI can trigger students' analysis, evaluation, and reflection processes thru adaptive and interactive learning, with immediate feedback and personalized learning. Nevertheless, the successful implementation of AI depends on students' digital literacy, pedagogical design, and policies regarding AI use on campus. Other challenges such as technology dependence, algorithmic bias, and faculty readiness also need to be considered. A key novelty of this study is the identification of cognitive off-loading as a central risk, highlighting that AI’s impact is not merely supportive but can potentially weaken students’ independent reasoning if not regulated properly. This novelty underscores the urgent need for clear usage guidelines to ensure that AI strengthens rather than replaces students’ critical thinking processes. Overall, this research indicates that integrating AI into learning can enhance students' critical thinking abilities, provided it is used to support independent thinking and reflection, with a planned and ethical approach, making AI an intellectual partner in active, creative, and meaningful learning.
