Exploring the Capabilities and Possible Applications of Large Language Models for Education

This research looks into the possible applications of large language models (LLMs) in education, with a special emphasis on ChatGPT, an OpenAI-developed chat bot model. It demonstrates the usefulness of ChatGPT as a learning aid and research assistant while addressing ethical and pedagogical concerns such as cognitive offloading, academic integrity, and critical thinking. The study covers a wide range of educational settings, including content development, learning a foreign language, problem solving, and literature review assistance. Furthermore, it presents ZeroGPT, a plagiarism detection tool for recognizing GPT-generated content and summarizes the findings to highlight LLMs’ ability to improve educational experiences.
