Thanks to ChatGPT’s ability to generate and evaluate information, it is possible to integrate various functions into the teaching and learning processes.  

For example:

– Generates different ways of expressing the same idea using the “Regenerate answer” option.

– Acts as an opponent if the conversation follows the structure of a debate, developing ideas and arguments.

– Information searches requested by students or teachers to complete assignments and tasks, help with research and generate content for classes.

– It provides personalized feedback to students on their progress and guides them based on using the information that teachers (or students themselves) have provided to the system.

– It can intervene in the design or update of a curriculum.

– It helps the students to reflect on the learning material by explaining their level of understanding and requesting support for their study.

– After knowing the level of the students, ChatGPT can propose games and challenges to motivate them to extend their learning on a topic.

ChatGPT functions can also be applied in research. For example, it can be used to complete the technical parts of research funding applications, data analysis and collection, research design (suggesting data sources or generating ideas for questions or projects), or other writing tasks (translating texts, improving writing, or reformatting citations and references). It is even possible to predict whether a scholarly article will be accepted or not.

As for the Administration of Higher Education Institutions (HEI), ChatGPT is used to improve the efficiency of the processes carried out in this department. This tool can answer any type of query (e.g., those requested by potential students), assist in the student enrollment process, send reminders, and indicate to students their exam schedules or the location of their classes. However, the main advantage of incorporating AI into this department is that administrative services can be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
