The study aimed to explore the effectiveness of employing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the computer curriculum to develop graphic design skills among eighth-grade female students in Al-Quwaismeh district. The study adopted a quasi-experimental approach and was conducted intentionally on a sample of 46 female students from one of the private schools. The students were randomly assigned into two groups, where each one (the experimental and the control) included 23 students.
The experimental group was taught using an AI-based learning environment through the Canva program, one of the graphic design tools, while the control group followed the traditional learning environment. To achieve the objectives of the study, a product evaluation rubric was applied pre- and post-intervention to both groups to assess the performance-based aspects of graphic design skills.
The data were analyzed using SPSS software. The results showed statistically significant differences between the mean scores of the experimental and control groups in the post-test for the total score of the product evaluation rubric related to the skills of graphic design among the eighth grade students in Al-Quwaismeh. These differences were attributed to the teaching method using AI technologies via the Canva program in favor of the experimental group. Additionally, significant differences were found in specific skills such as "color usage and visual coordination" and "producing professional and coherent designs," were due to the teaching method using AI technologies via the Canva program in favor of the experimental group. The researcher recommended providing training programs and workshops for computer and art teachers to enhance their knowledge and skills in using AI technologies and emphasized the importance of their application in the educational process, particularly focusing on practical aspects that foster students’ creative skills.
