Welcoming ChatGPT Into the Classroom

Despite Many school districts banning ChatGPT, a recent survey shows that students and teachers are using the tech more and reporting positive results.

Key Details

  • 51% of teachers report using ChatGPT, with 40% using it weekly and 10% using it almost every day, according to a survey of 1,000 teachers (grades K–12) and 1,000 students (ages 12–17).
  • 30% of teachers report using the service for lesson planning, 30% for creative class ideas, and 27% to build background knowledge for lessons and classes.
  • 33% of students aged 12 to 17 report using ChatGPT for school, while 47% of students aged 12 to 14 report using the service.
  • 88% of teachers and 79% of students report the service as having a positive learning impact.

Why it’s news

Since its launch in November, ChatGPT has attracted more than 100 million subscribers, and has gone viral for its AI capabilities. 

The bot can generate its own answers, essays, and has even been tested to pass extensive exams like a medical licensing exam. The creativity of the bot has led it to become a cheating hotspot for students and has been banned by multiple school districts across the country. 

Despite the bot being banned to stop cheating and the possible spread of misinformation, teachers have begun using the AI bot and reporting positively on its impact. 

A recent survey found that teachers and students use the chatbot to help with school-related activities. Teachers are using the bot to help with lesson plans, making creative activities, and helping to understand the background of classroom lessons. 

Many teachers have reported that the chatbot can help students better understand assignments and help with school work, but the bot can also be used to completely do work for students, which is not helping them learn at all.

ChatGPT is also still in the beginning stages and sometimes gives wrong information. If students and teachers use false information from the bot, it can be harmful.

If the chatbot is used correctly, it can be a successful and valuable tool for both teachers and students, and many educators are beginning to see the potential good use and implementing it into their work.
