Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly shaping the education sector, offering innovative tools for personalized learning, automation, and data-driven decision-making. However, the effective integration of Artificial Intelligence in education depends on teachers’ awareness, understanding, and readiness to utilize Artificial Intelligence powered tools. This study aims to assess the awareness of Artificial Intelligence among secondary school teachers, analyzing variations based on school type medium of instruction gender, location and subject specialization. The descriptive survey research design was employed, using a structured questionnaire to collect data from 400 secondary school teachers selected through stratified random sampling. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics and t-tests to determine significant differences between groups. The findings indicate that private school teachers have significantly higher Artificial Intelligence awareness than government school teachers and English medium teachers exhibit greater Artificial Intelligence awareness than Kannada medium teachers. No statistically significant difference was observed between male and female teachers. However, urban teachers’ demonstrated significantly higher Artificial Intelligence awareness than rural teachers and science teachers scored significantly higher than arts teachers. The study highlights critical gaps in Artificial Intelligence awareness, particularly among government school teachers, rural teachers, and arts teachers, suggesting the need for targeted Artificial Intelligence training programs and curriculum enhancements. The findings provide valuable insights for educational policymakers, school administrators, and teacher training institutions to bridge Artificial Intelligence awareness disparities and promote equitable Artificial Intelligence integration in secondary education. Addressing these gaps is essential to prepare educators and students for an Artificial Intelligence driven in future.
