UNDERGRADUATES' LEVEL OF AWARENESS AND UTILISATION OF NAPKIN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR LEARNING AT UNIVERSITIES IN KWARA STATE

Abstract

Napkin Artificial Intelligence is a generative artificial intelligence tool designed to enhance learning and productivity among users by providing a suite of features to help organise educational diagrams, concept explanations, and learning materials. This study investigated undergraduates’ level of awareness and extent of utilisation at universities in Kwara State. A descriptive survey design was used, sampling 300 undergraduates through a multistage procedure. Data were collected through a self-structured questionnaire, which was pilot tested for reliability with a Cronbach Alpha coefficient of 0.81 and was analysed with mean, standard deviation, t-tests and Pearson Product-Moment Correlation. Findings showed low awareness (t=1.92, p>0.05), with no significant gender difference. Positive correlation was found between awareness and utilisation (r=0.68, p<0.05). The study concluded that Napkin AI is underutilised due to limited awareness. The study recommended integrating Napkin AI into curricula to enhance undergraduates’ learning. By implication, increased exposure of undergraduates to Napkin AI can facilitate learning.
