“…Crawford et al (2023) explore the opportunities of ChatGPT in higher education practice. Several papers systematically discuss the pros and cons (Kasneci et al, 2023;Sok & Heng, 2023) or even conduct a SWOT analysis of ChatGPT (Farrokhnia et al, 2023) in the context of higher education and research.…”

“…Relying too much on ChatGPT can harm both students and teachers. Students may experience a decline in cognitive abilities, such as creativity, critical thinking, reasoning, and problem-solving (Farrokhnia et al, 2023). This is because ChatGPT simplifies the process of obtaining answers, which may reduce their motivation to conduct independent research and form their conclusions or solutions.…”

ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence chatbot that utilizes advanced natural language processing technologies, including large language models, to produce human‐like responses to user queries spanning a wide range of topics from programming to mathematics. As an emerging generative artificial intelligence (GAI) tool, it presents novel opportunities and challenges to the ongoing digital transformation of education. This article employs a systematic review approach to summarize the viewpoints of Chinese scholars and experts regarding the implementation of GAI in education. The research findings indicate that a majority of Chinese scholars support the cautious integration of GAI into education as it serves as a learning tool that offers personalized educational experiences for students. However, it also raises concerns related to academic integrity and the potential hindrance to students' critical thinking skills. Consequently, a framework called DATS, which outlines an optimization path for future GAI applications in schools, is proposed. The framework takes into account the perspectives of four key stakeholders: developers, administrators, teachers, and students.

“…While the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and GPT models is already widespread in various industrial applications (Ahuja, 2019;Veloso et al, 2021) research investigating the implementation of chatbots into classroom practice is still in its infancy (Hwang & Chang, 2021), especially with respect to secondary schools (Adiguzel et al, 2023;Salas-Pilco & Yang, 2022;Halaweh, 2023). There are specific barriers and risks associated with the use of large language models in an educational context (e.g., Farrokhnia et al, 2023;Kasneci et al, 2023). For example, Floridi and Chiriatti (2020) warn that "fake news and disinformation may [...] get a boost" (p. 692) by tools like ChatGPT considering that it becomes easier to convincingly mislead with automatically generated texts (McGuffie & Newhouse, 2020).…”

“…One particularly relevant limitation of AI tools is the lack of higher-order thinking skills as outlined by Farrokhnia et al (2023). AI tools are highly dependent on the data they are trained on, and often lack a deep understanding of the textual outputs produced (Bogost, 2022;Gao et al, 2023) or the content context, which is essential for higher-order thinking (Dimitrov, 2023).…”

Large language models, such as ChatGPT, have great potential to enhance learning and support teachers, but they must be used with care to tackle limitations and biases. This paper presents two easy-to-implement examples of how ChatGPT can be used in physics classrooms to foster critical thinking skills at the secondary school level. A pilot study (n=53) examining the implementation of these examples found that the intervention had a positive impact on students’ perceptions of ChatGPT, with an increase in agreement with statements related to its benefits and incorporation into their daily lives.
