The research was conducted over a short duration without long-term observation, making it impossible to determine whether improvements in preschool teachers' AI awareness and computational thinking skills persist and translate into sustained classroom practices. Long-term longitudinal studies tracking AI-STEM integration over semesters or years are needed.

The paper identifies that generative AI assists novice programmers with syntax, logic, debugging, and code suggestions in computer science education, but does not specify empirical evidence for whether AI-provided step-by-step debugging explanations improve long-term programming problem-solving skills or create dependency on AI assistance, nor does it define proficiency thresholds where AI support should be gradually withdrawn.
