Subclaims¶

q2 i? Students reported a positive attitude toward GenAI, wanting to integrate it in learning practices (Mean = 3.85) and future careers (Mean = 4.05). → Chan 2023 q2 i1 Willingness to use GenAI is positively correlated with knowledge of GenAI (r = 0.189; p < 0.001) and frequency of use (r = 0.326; p < 0.001). → Chan 2023 (2)

Evidence¶

Chan 2023¶

Chan, C. K. Y., & Hu, W. (2023). Students’ voices on generative AI: perceptions, benefits, and challenges in higher education. International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 20:43. https://doi.org/10.1186/s41239-023-00411-8

q2 · i? · associational · r1

Descriptive Likert-scale results from the survey of 399 students. Students valued perceived usefulness for unique insights (Mean = 3.74), personalized feedback (Mean = 3.61), 24/7 availability (Mean = 4.12) and anonymous support (Mean = 3.77).

"students have a positive attitude toward GenAI technologies. They would like to integrate GenAI technologies like ChatGPT in their learning practices (Mean = 3.85, SD = 1.02), as well as future careers (Mean = 4.05; SD = 0.96)."

Chan 2023 (2)¶

Correlation analysis in the willingness results section reports "r = 0.189; p < 0.001" for knowledge and "r = 0.326; p < 0.001" for frequency of use, both positive associations with willingness.

"students’ perceived willingness to use GenAI technologies is positively correlated with both knowledge of GenAI (r = 0.189; p < 0.001) and frequency of use (r = 0.326; p < 0.001), indicating that students who are more knowledgeable about these technologies and use them more frequently are more likely to use them in the future"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Teachers' attitudes toward GenAI tools significantly predict their behavioural intention to integrate them — a broader claim this one bears on
• Students express concerns about GenAI, with non-users (never/rarely) significantly more concerned than other users, and concerns uncorrelated with knowledge — related
• Students rate their ethical awareness of AI higher than instructors, while instructors report stronger willingness to experiment with AI tools and higher behavioural intention — related
• Chatbot users held more positive attitudes and reported greater perceived knowledge gains than non-users — related
• Youth hold varied attitudes toward generative AI, with non-users citing concerns about helpfulness, academic integrity, knowledge, privacy, and awareness — related
• Students' knowledge of GenAI is positively correlated with their frequency of use
• After hands-on use, 96% of students wanted AIDA in their studies, with the quiz function the most liked feature — related
• ChatGPT use frequency and intention to use are strongly positively correlated — related
• Prior chatbot exposure rather than general technological literacy is associated with willingness to use chatbots — related
• Students aware of the GenAI feedback source reported no attitude change, while unaware students varied between content-focused acceptance and conditional willingness to reconsider — related
