Research on the Role Transformation and Practical Path of Kindergarten Art Teachers in the AI Era

Abstrak

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has posed significant challenges to kindergarten art education. This study explores the inevitable transformation of kindergarten art teachers’ roles and practical implementation strategies in the AI era. The paper analyzes the dilemmas faced by traditional teachers as “skill demonstrators” and “artwork evaluators” under the impact of AI, while examining pathways for their transition from conventional roles to new professional identities. Grounded in classroom practice, it proposes an “AI-assisted, child-centered” approach. Through concrete case studies, the study elaborates on key implementation points and behavioral guidelines for each pathway, aiming to provide frontline educators with a systematic and actionable framework. This framework enables teachers to redefine their professional value in the AI era and effectively harness technological empowerment to better nurture and stimulate children’s creativity and aesthetic sensibilities.
