The purpose of this study was to analyze secondary school technology teachers' perception of AI and AI teaching efficacy. To achieve the purpose of the study, a questionnaire was selected and 384 questionnaires were collected through an online survey. For data analysis, frequency analysis and descriptive statistics were conducted, and independent sample t-test and one-way ANOVA were used to analyze differences according to variables. As a result of the study, first, the level of perception of the necessity and possibility of artificial intelligence education in technical education was quite high, and the level of perception of high school teachers, teachers with more than 5 years of experience and less than 10 years of experience in AI-related training was statistically significant. Second, the artificial intelligence teaching efficacy of secondary technology teachers was higher for male teachers than female teachers, high school teachers compared to middle school teachers, and teachers with training experience, and teachers with more than 20 years of experience showed the lowest level. Third, there was a positive correlation between the perception of AI education and AI teaching efficacy. Based on the above research results, in order to raise perception of artificial intelligence education and enhance artificial intelligence teaching efficacy, it is necessary to establish an artificial intelligence education system in middle and high school technical subjects and to provide opportunities for customized artificial intelligence-related training support by gender, school level, and teaching experience will be needed.
