The use of large language model Generative AI (GenAI) systems by students and instructors is increasing rapidly, there little choice but to adapt this new situation. Many, not all, are using GenAI for homework assignments, which means that we need provide equitable access all can support enhance their learning. At the same time, think carefully about just what want teaching learning look like as become readily available. Here propose "business usual" a responsible option. Although chatbots answer questions, produce summaries content, make process education more efficient, scant evidence such time saving effective, indeed, it important allow circumvent or undermine process. availability so-called Retrieval Augmented (RAG) allows us expand expect know do, 1) supporting in design complex tasks (that can, example, elicit three-dimensional (3DL)), 2) they reason through scaffolded tasks, 3) evaluating student responses, individually aggregate. We present examples each these affordances with associated training materials bot personas, along caveats use.

The emergence of generative artificial intelligence has precipitated a wide range predictions for its impact on science and the teaching learning science. Chemists chemistry educators have been exploring possibilities this new technology, essentially as soon it was broadly released use. Because technology is rapidly developing, insights that can be gained from work early adopters investigators play particularly important role in shaping future how education adapts to, perhaps embraces, technology. This Special Issue provides snapshot at relatively moment evolution use chemistry. interplay between development implementation classroom will always important, but seldom more so than stages work. set articles presented (https://pubs.acs.org/page/jceda8/vi/genai2024) shows robust options use, potentially misuse, help guide those interested finding ways to enhance emerging opportunities afforded by tool.

Yapay zekâ (YZ) terimi resmi olarak John McCarthy tarafından 1956 yılında Dartmouth Konferansı'nda tanıtılmış ve yapay zekânın gelişiminde önemli bir dönüm noktası olmuştur. Günümüzde sağlık, finans, eğitim gibi sektörlerde etkin uygulamalarının kullanımı giderek önem kazanmaktadır. YZ Okuryazarlığı, okuryazarlık biçimine verilen isimdir. Çalışmada nicel araştırma yöntemi kullanılmış olup okuryazarlığı ölçeği kullanılmıştır. amaç bilişim, bilgisayar mühendisliği vb. alanda öğrenim gören öğrencilerin düzeylerinin ölçülmesidir. Örneklem Sivas ilinde bilişim ile ilgili 211 üniversite öğrencisidir. okuryazarlığının çeşitli özelliklere göre farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığını tespit etmek amacıyla Mann-Whitney U testi, Kruskal Wallis testi testler uygulanmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda tüm bölümlerde okuyan yüksek olduğu, cinsiyet, sınıf bölüm değişkenlerinin üzerinde anlamlı etkiye sahip olmadığı edilmiştir. Fakat bilgi teknoloji araçları projelerde görev alma olduğu görülmüştür.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed chatbots into generative pre-trained transformers (GPTs) capable performing various tasks. use GPTs is expanding to learning, including natural sciences like chemistry. can assist students in understanding and solving chemistry problems. However, there are potential negative impacts using GPTs. This study aims explore Indonesian university students' perspectives on for learning. research used a case method collected data through questionnaires, interviews, GPT usage logs, which were then analyzed thematically. revealed that learning due perceived usefulness, ease use, emotional aspects, benefits, social influence. Students appreciate answers being easy understand, detailed, reliable, fairly accurate, fast, helpful. also recognize be unreliable, difficult not always potentially unethical. evaluate responses by stimulating thoughts, confirming answers, integrating with other sources, directly copying responses, paraphrasing before use. They aware ethical considerations, drawbacks, limitations associated Findings pertaining motives, constraints, the evaluation answer quality its utilization serve as indicators proper application educational contexts. In many countries, Indonesia, where lack regulations, concrete policies necessary ensure integration education.
