Hello all, I’m excited to be back on the Stack after a nice New Year treat (gnarly food poisoning). Today, we have a different kind of newsletter. I am asking for your help with hat in hand.
As a caveat, I am not a “researcher”. I’m simply interested in knowing more about student attitudes and experiences with LLM. Regardless, I’d like to introduce a new survey and get your feedback on some of the questions I plan on asking.
This survey is specifically tailored for middle school students to delve into their understanding and opinions regarding ChatGPT. My primary aim is to explore students' familiarity with ChatGPT, their interactions with AI-based tools, and their perceptions concerning how AI might influence education. Through this survey, I aspire to grasp a comprehensive understanding of students' awareness and attitudes toward AI technologies like ChatGPT.
The questionnaire encompasses queries about students' knowledge of AI, their utilization of AI-driven applications, and their perspectives on how AI could potentially shape learning environments.
Although you won't be directly participating in the survey, I want to hear your thoughts! If you have any suggestions at all, I’m all ears. I hope the data collected will significantly contribute to our ongoing research endeavors, shedding light on the implications of AI in education.
Thank you for your interest in comprehending the purpose and objectives of this survey.
