ChatGPT has captured the imaginations of many and, unsurprisingly, generated excitement and fear in equal measure. But as well as being a hot topic, it can also be an incredibly powerful tool. With a small introduction (like this blog) you can learn to get the most out of what AI programs like ChatGPT can offer. The best way to engage with something is to improve your understanding of it. As well as a bit of an explanation, we\u2019ve got some tips and insights that can guide you towards using ChatGPT to save time while still keeping human interaction at the centre of your learning environment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence chatbot created in November 2022 by Openai. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chatbots are used for customer service and use keywords from typed-out questions to search a company’s database. ChatGPT, or Generative Pre-trained Transformer, is a chatbot that claims to avoid opinionated or polarizing information and has been updated to GPT-4, which excels at complex reasoning and creativity. It uses a neural network to create responses and relies on transfer learning, which applies knowledge gained while solving one problem to another related problem. Each time ChatGPT is used (around 25 million times a day!), it gets better at answering questions in detail. To learn more about ChatGPT, check out our first blog in this series: What is ChatGPT and How Can It Be Useful?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n ChatGPT has many more uses beyond answering questions. It can summarize, rewrite, and provide examples for almost any enquiry you can think of.\u00a0 But, like all machines, ChatGPT is not without limitations. It should not be treated as an encyclopedia or a repository of knowledge. It is neither. In fact, the internet is filled with examples of ChatGPT confidently getting things wrong. There\u2019s also no easy way to tell when it\u2019s mistaken. So, remember that at its core, ChatGPT is a language predictor<\/em>. It will do its best to collaborate and collate information for you, but it doesn\u2019t actually know<\/em> things in the same way that you do. Another concern with ChatGPT is the possibility for students to use it to do their work for them. To read more about this, check our blog on this issue: ChatGPT and Academic Cheating: Cause for concern?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n As we\u2019ve mentioned, ChatGPT is a very adaptive program. One of its most applicable functions for educators is that it can reword content to be appropriate for different age groups. For example, if you ask ChatGPT to \u201cExplain Newton\u2019s third Law\u201d it will tell you: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Newton’s third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that when two objects interact with each other, the force exerted by one object on the other is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force exerted by the second object on the first. In simpler terms, if object A pushes on object B with a certain force, then object B pushes back on object A with the same force, but in the opposite direction. This law applies to all types of forces, whether they are contact forces (like pushing and pulling) or non-contact forces (like gravity and electromagnetism).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Thorough, but a bit wordy. However, if you then ask it to \u201cexplain it for five year olds,\u201d it\u2019ll give you something like: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Newton’s third law says that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This means that when you push on something, it pushes back on you with the same force. For example, when you push a toy car, it pushes back on your hand with the same amount of force. This is why the car moves.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n And you can do this with all sorts of concepts, not just physics. Additionally, ChatGPT can be used to provide personalized feedback to students on their work, identifying areas where they may need improvement or offering suggestions for further research or exploration. It\u2019s especially good at analyzing the grammatical and stylistic aspects of writing. This can help students develop critical thinking skills and improve their understanding of the material.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow to incorporate ChatGPT into your classroom<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
