A well-regulated and controlled use of AI can go a long way to enhance learning in an effective manner.
I found it interesting that critical thinking is a skill that is very much needed with this type of technology. If people are not proficient at critical thinking, AI may lead them astray.
Chat GPT is a great tool for students to gain more insight on topics they may not completely understand and get feedback on things.
using it to assist in creating assignments or case studies
I am amazed at the various and useful ways to incorporate ChatGPT into the teaching process. I envision using ChatGPT to create unique case-based nursing scenarios that foster critical thinking, clinical reasoning, and active engagement, enhancing student learning and decision-making skills. I will provide the prompts and lab results. Chat GPT will create diverse scenarios, and I will review and edit them as needed, leveraging my subject matter expertise.
ChatGPT can be used as a mental health resource. It can be useful to provide empathetic conversation, and individuals can discuss their concerns. It can offer resources nearby that individuals can use to seek additional help/support.
I ask my students which topics they are not understanding and are reaching out to ChatGPT to further investigate and assess what understanding they have developed for accuracy and critical thinking.
I have learned that the prompts entered can change the response. So, even if the intention is the same, if asked differently, it can produce a different response. This is a direct correlation to ChatGPT not having emotion or comprehension.
A lot of possibilities with AI use in Education. Some drawbacks but all in favor of using it in the classroom.
I learned that neural networks are computer systems modeled after the human brain, forming the foundation of machine learning and deep learning by recognizing patterns in data. ChatGPT, while highly advanced, does not truly “understand” or possess consciousness-it generates responses based on statistical patterns from its training data. OpenAI has implemented safety measures, such as filters and warnings, to reduce risks of bias, misinformation, or inappropriate content. Still, ChatGPT has limitations, including limited contextual understanding, sensitivity to input phrasing, occasional biased or inappropriate responses, lack of real-time knowledge, and overconfidence in incorrect answers. Recognizing both its strengths and limitations is key to using it responsibly and effectively.
La diversidad de usos que se le puede dar y su utilidad en los aspectos de salud y educación. También ser más cuidadosa a conocer sus limitaciones.
AI has a place in education as a tool to help with tutoring, support, and course development.
I intend to use ChatGPT to create new diagrams and research new technology for teaching in the flipped classroom.
I learned the many benefits and downfalls of Chat GPT. The bias element is something I don't think my students recognize and so being aware and sharing that with them is very important to me.
I've learned that ChatGPT can be used for helping to set schedules and reminders. I'm still not aware of how that works, or if it can integrate with Google Calendar.
While LLMs like ChatGPT are impressive, we must be aware of several pitfalls.
Always verify that AI-generated content is accurate. Errors in AI output can spread false information. You should check facts using credible sources.
It will be very important to teach students the downfalls of using ChatGPT such as the fact that it cannot follow real-time events and that information ChatGPT provides may be outdated for rapidly changing topics.
ChatGPT can enhance the learning environment when integrated smartly.
