The Influence of ChatGPT on Student Learning and Academic Performance

Abstract

This study delves into the integration of ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence-driven language model, within undergraduate education. The research scrutinizes the potential advantages, obstacles, and ethical dimensions linked to including ChatGPT in educational practices. It assesses how ChatGPT may impact student engagement, critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, writing proficiency, and the delivery of personalized learning experiences. A survey administered to university faculty members captures their perspectives on ChatGPT usage, encompassing its influence on learning outcomes and academic performance. An internal inquiry at the British University in Egypt found high plagiarism rates in various faculties, with mass media having the highest at 66%, while political science had the lowest at 28%. A survey has been conducted on teaching staff at the university. 75% of teaching staff believes that ChatGPT should be integrated into teaching. However, they are still undecided about whether ChatGPT has affected the teaching and learning process. The study underscores the significance of responsible implementation, faculty training, and continuous assessment to optimize ChatGPT’s benefits while adhering to ethical standards in education. In conclusion, this paper illuminates ChatGPT’s potential as a valuable tool in undergraduate education, underscoring the imperative of preserving critical thinking skills and human interaction in the learning journey.
