Subjects: ChatGPT, Educational evaluation, Teaching aids, Machine learning, Language models, Ethical problems, Educational technology
Abstract: This study explores ChatGPT's role as a teaching aid in algorithmic education, focusing on its ability to generate and evaluate algorithmic questions and solutions. Qualitative analysis shows strong performance in Sensibleness, Readiness, and Topicality, though Novelty remains an area for improvement. ChatGPT also demonstrated self-improvement in criteria like Efficiency and Robustness, with over 60% enhancement. A comparison of AI and teacher grading revealed that ChatGPT provided accurate assessments, closely aligning with expert evaluations. The findings highlight ChatGPT's potential in educational assessment and call for further exploration of student perceptions and ethical considerations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
