Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, this study sought to determine the impact of AI-supported infographic templates (static versus animated) on academic achievement, visual thinking skills, and willingness to learn among a sample of university students. The researcher created two distinct AI-supported instructional infographic templates to determine the effect of such an independent variable on his three other primary dependent variables, namely, academic accomplishment, visual thinking skills, and willingness to learn, in order to meet his study goals. An achievement exam, a visual thinking test, and a willingness to learn scale were among the research methods used. The quasiexperimental method was used to provide the research instruments, and experimental therapy was used to a select group of students at Umm Al-Qura University. According to the findings, AI-assisted static and animated infographic templates had a favorable impact on the development of all learning aspects studied. AI-assisted animated infographics, on the other hand, had a more significant impact than AI-assisted static infographics. In light of this, the researcher concluded his research by making a number of recommendations and suggesting additional research, such as maximizing the use of AI emerging technologies and their practical application in an adaptive manner suitable for education.
