Abstract
The purpose of this research is to analyze the exploratory factors of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) literacy for Teachers Under the Secondary Educational Service Area Office Pathum Thani. The sample consisted of 350 teachers employed by basic education institutions under the Secondary Educational Service Area Office, Pathum Thani, for the 2024 academic year. The sample was selected using multi-stage sampling from 22 schools. The research instrument was a questionnaire, with content validity checked using the Index of Item-Objective Congruence (IOC), which ranged from 0.60 to 1.00. The overall reliability, measured by Cronbach's alpha, was 0.962. The data were analyzed using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Factors were extracted through common factor analysis (CFA) using the principal axis factoring (PAF) method, followed by orthogonal rotation with the Varimax method. The research findings revealed three components of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) literacy for basic education teachers, organized in line with the knowledge management process as follows: 1) understanding the use of GAI with quality and ethics, which encompasses foundational knowledge and the ability to use GAI appropriately; 2) appropriate and effective use of GAI, which emphasizes the ability to give effective commands to GAI without violating ethical standards or rights; and 3) the application of GAI in various contexts, highlighting the skill of utilizing GAI to support tasks or solve problems beyond teaching and learning management. Together, these components explained 82.56% of the variance in GAI literacy for basic education teachers. These findings can be utilized by educational institutions to develop action plans for enhancing the capabilities of educators or teaching personnel, promoting the use of GAI to improve the quality of education in ways that align with the context of their organizations.
