Abstract: ChatGPT holds considerable promise for enhancing education; however, effectively leveraging its capabilities remains a challenge. Thus, the study aimed to explore the effective utilization of ChatGPT within educational settings. An exploratory case study was employed to analyze a ChatGPT-assisted lesson plan, interaction transcripts, and researcher notes. Inductive analysis revealed two central themes: context and user role. The first theme emphasized that ChatGPT's capability to comprehend context plays a pivotal role. The second theme highlighted that users should be mindful of the techniques and strategies required for effective engagement with ChatGPT. This study demonstrates ChatGPT's potential in supporting learning experiences while also pointing to its limitations. To address these, educators are encouraged to adopt tailored communication styles, iterative revision methods, and careful validation of the tool's outputs. The findings contribute to broader discussions about integrating AI into education, offering practical insights for educators and instructional designers aiming to incorporate ChatGPT effectively into their pedagogical practices.
