Overview:
In recent years, the rise of advanced language models, such as ChatGPT, has presented both opportunities and challenges in the realm of education. One growing concern is the misuse of these powerful tools by students who rely on them to complete their assignments instead of engaging in independent learning and critical thinking. To address this pressing issue, our NISS Academic Affiliates are organizing a webinar dedicated to exploring opportunities and constraints.
Join us for this insightful webinar as we bring together esteemed academics, educators, and researchers to examine the phenomenon of students using ChatGPT and similar language models used for student learning. Through thought-provoking presentations and interactive discussions, we aim to delve into the underlying factors contributing to this and identify effective measures to determine its impact.
