With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, the field of education is undergoing profound changes, posing new challenges and opportunities for teachers in terms of role, professional identity, and professional development. This paper first analyzes the connotation of teacher identity, encompassing role identity, professional identity, and aspects related to professional growth. Subsequently, the article elaborates on the challenges faced by teachers in the intelligent era, such as the weakening of role authority, the threat to professional status, and the pressure on professional skills. At the same time, the article also highlights the opportunities presented by the intelligent era, including the possibility of role transformation, the advantages of technology empowerment, and new avenues for professional development. On this basis, this paper proposes coping strategies for teachers to address identity challenges in the intelligent era, including re-examining role orientation, improving technology application skills, enhancing professional quality, actively participating in human-machine collaboration, and paying attention to ethics and safety. Finally, through case analysis, the article showcases the practical experiences of teachers who have successfully undergone identity transformation and looks forward to the development trend of teacher identity in the intelligent era, offering research prospects and suggestions for future exploration.
