The Effect of Employing Artificial Intelligence Tools in Dry Laboratories on Laboratory Performance Skills and Anxiety Levels from the Perspective of Secondary School Students

This study aimed to identify the effect of employing artificial intelligence tools in dry laboratories on laboratory performance skills and anxiety levels from the perspective of secondary school students. The study sample consisted of 104 secondary school students in Madinah, and it included two types of variables: an independent variable, which is the use of artificial intelligence tools in dry laboratories, and dependent variables, which are laboratory performance skills and laboratory performance anxiety. The results showed a significant impact of employing artificial intelligence tools in dry laboratories on developing laboratory performance skills and reducing the level of laboratory performance anxiety. The study recommended educating secondary school students about the importance of artificial intelligence tools in virtual laboratories (dry laboratories), in addition to utilizing artificial intelligence tools in virtual laboratories to enhance laboratory application skills and reduce laboratory anxiety.
