Abstract

The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education has opened up opportunities for strengthening AI digital literacy and creative thinking skills among students. AI digital literacy includes understanding how AI works, the ethics of use, and utilization in various contexts, while creative thinking refers to the ability to generate innovative and original ideas. This study aims to explore the level of AI digital literacy and creative thinking skills among Xth grade high school students, using a descriptive method with proficiency tests and self-assessment questionnaires. The results showed that students' AI digital literacy level was low, with an average score of 56.94%, where students had difficulty in critically digesting information, recognizing the social impact of AI, using AI technology, and considering the ethical aspects of its use. In addition, students' creative thinking skills were also low, with an average score of 55.14%, especially in the aspects of originality of ideas, flexibility of thinking, and conceptual mapping. These findings highlight the need for the integration of an AI curriculum in education, the use of interactive AI tools, and the implementation of project-based learning models to improve students' AI digital literacy and creativity. In addition, learning environments that support exploration and positive feedback from teachers play an important role in creating optimal synergy between these two skills. Further research is needed to explore the limitations of AI in supporting creativity as well as the risks of technology dependency in the innovative thinking process.

Abstract

This study explores student agency in Artificial Intelligence (AI)-supported STEM learning environments, addressing a critical gap in existing literature that predominantly focuses on learning outcomes rather than learner-centered processes. Drawing on an interpretive qualitative approach, this research investigates how students experience autonomy, self-regulation, and decision-making when interacting with AI technologies in STEM education. Data were collected from 15 participants engaged in AI-supported learning through in-depth semi-structured interviews, supported by observations and document analysis. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify recurring patterns and meanings related to student agency. The findings reveal that student agency is a dynamic and multidimensional construct shaped by the interplay between technological affordances and learner engagement. Four major themes emerged: enhanced autonomy, development of self-regulated learning, negotiated decision-making, and ambivalent dependency on AI. While AI technologies provide adaptive support that empowers students to take control of their learning, they also introduce the risk of over-reliance, which may reduce cognitive engagement. This study contributes to the theoretical advancement of student agency by conceptualizing it as a spectrum rather than a fixed attribute, highlighting the dual role of AI as both an enabler and a constraint. The findings offer important pedagogical implications for designing AI-supported STEM learning environments that promote active, reflective, and responsible learning. Future research is recommended to explore this phenomenon across diverse contexts and through longitudinal designs.
