APPLICATION OF AI IN TRAINING STUDENT TEACHERS IN FINE ARTS EDUCATION

ABSTRACT

This study examined the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in training student teachers in Fine Arts Education as a strategy for preparing them for effective instructional delivery in a digital age. The paper addressed the need to modernize Fine Arts teacher education in Nigeria, where traditional studio based instruction continues to limit creativity and technological engagement. The study adopted a conceptual and analytical design based on secondary data from scholarly literature, policy reports, and theoretical discussions published between 2019 and 2025. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, the paper explored how AI tools such as digital design software, virtual art studios, and adaptive learning systems can enhance creativity, teaching competence, and innovation among Fine Arts student teachers. Findings revealed that AI promotes personalized learning, supports digital art creation, and fosters interactive instructional experiences, though its implementation in Nigeria is hindered by inadequate funding, weak digital infrastructure, and limited professional capacity. The study concluded that integrating AI into Fine Arts teacher training is essential for aligning Nigerian education with global standards. It recommended curriculum reform, capacity development for educators, improved infrastructure, and ethical guidelines for responsible AI use in creative learning.
