    Artificial Intelligence Integration in Teaching, Learning, and Research: A Comparative Study among Research Scholars and Faculty Members at Farook College, Kerala
    (INFLIBNET Centre Gandhinagar, 2025-12-01) T P, Shabna; K, Mohamed Haneefa
    The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is transforming the landscape of higher education, presenting both innovative opportunities and significant challenges for academic institutions. This comparative study investigated the levels of awareness, attitudes, usage patterns, and institutional readiness for AI integration among research scholars and faculty members at Farook College, with particular focus on identifying disparities between these two key academic constituencies. A descriptive research design was employed with 127 participants (75 faculty members and 52 research scholars) from various disciplines. Data were collected through structured questionnaires administered via printed copies and Google Forms, achieving response rates of 87.80% among faculty members and 66.67% among research scholars. The study reveals substantial differences between research scholars and faculty in AI integration readiness, with research scholars showing higher enthusiasm but also greater concern intensity. Both groups recognise AI's transformative potential while emphasising the need for ethical implementation. The findings highlight urgent requirements for differentiated institutional strategies that address faculty training deficits, develop comprehensive AI governance policies, and establish equitable support systems. The research contributes to understanding stakeholder-specific needs in AI adoption and provides evidence for developing targeted interventions to ensure the responsible and effective integration of AI in higher education contexts.

    Digital Literacy of Library and Information Science Students in Universities in Kerala
    (INFLIBNET Centre Gandhinagar, 2025-12-01) Shibu, Meghna; K, Mohamed Haneefa
    This study aims to explore the digital literacy of Library and Information Science (LIS) Students in universities in Kerala. The sample of the study comprises 124 students. Structured questionnaires were used for data collection. On examining different dimensions of digital literacy, students showed expertise in some areas and lacked skills in others. They found their digital literacy useful for academic and personal needs, and the LIS course contributed to its improvement. The findings offer valuable insights for policymakers and institutions to take steps in enhancing student digital literacy, as the study identifies current skill levels, areas of weakness, and student suggestions for improvement

    Transforming India: Role of Libraries in Citizen Science for Achieving Sustainable Development
    (INFLIBNET Centre Gandhinagar, 2025-12-08) Adattil, Hafsath; K, Mohamed Haneefa
    As a social institution, libraries ensure their readiness to support the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and act as a trusted network that effectively reaches the country's entire population, regardless of discrimination. Libraries significantly contribute to achieving this by promoting universal literacy (media, information, and digital) and bridging the gaps in information access. They have a considerable influence on various SDGs by promoting lifelong learning through access to different information sources, including print and digital materials, reducing inequalities by ensuring information access for marginalized communities, promoting social inclusion, strong institutions by building inclusive societies through participatory initiatives, etc. Furthermore, they serve as a hub for delivering public services and programs, support digital inclusion by offering access to ICT, and provide guidance to develop digital skills, research, and innovations. Citizen science, the public participation in scientific research, is a new approach that is gaining wider acceptance as a tool for achieving the SDGs, and this paper analyses the role of libraries in citizen science to attain the SDGs through a literature review and analysis of YouTube videos. The results show that libraries play a multifaceted role in citizen science initiatives, and this collaboration will lead to the development of India towards Viksit Bharat

    Web-Based Information Retrieval Pattern of Medical Students
    (Inflibnet Centre, 2011-03-02) K, Mohamed Haneefa; M, Jina E
    The purpose of this study was to assess the web-based information retrieval pattern of the students of Calicut Medical College, Kerala. Structured questionnaires were employed to collect data from a representative sample of 100 MBBS students. The study found that a majority of the students often use the web for communication and to get general information and recent advances in Medicine. A good number of the students use web-mail and social networking sites very frequently. All the students use simple search methods for accessing the web. Google is the most preferred search engine followed by Yahoo. Only a very few of the students use e-journals and databases. Lack of training/orientation, lack of computer infrastructure, lack of fulltext e-journals and low Internet backbone speed are the major reasons of underutilization of web-based information resources. The findings of this study would assist medical institutions in India to develop strategies and policies that could make better use of web-based information resources for medical education and research.
