q2 i? Six out of eight students explicitly referred to improved output evaluation competence as a perceived learning outcome. → Nicola Brocca 2026

Evidence¶

Nicola Brocca 2026¶

Nicola Brocca, Davide Garassino. (2026). LLMs in text linguistics teaching: an exploratory study with genAI novices in higher education. Computers and Education Open 11 (2026) 100414. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.caeo.2026.100414

q2 · i? · qualitative · r3

Qualitative content analysis of eight end-of-term reflections found "Six out of eight students explicitly referred to improved output evaluation competence"; this is a self-reported perception, not a tested measure, and the category appeared in the perceived learning progress coding (Table 3).

"Six out of eight students explicitly referred to improved output evaluation competence, indicating that critical assessment of LLM-generated content was a salient perceived learning outcome."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Comparing their own analyses with LLM outputs empowered students' sense of competence and reduced concerns about LLMs replacing human expertise — related
• Students perceive LLM chatbots as useful for learning but requiring critical use, reporting hallucinations, overconfidence, and dependency risks — related
• GenAI feedback limitations require students to exercise evaluative judgement — a broader claim this one bears on
• Students perceived the teacher’s modeling with contrasting cases as a turning point that repositioned them as active gatekeepers of AI-generated content — related
