ChatGPT is a valuable studying tool. It can help you brainstorm, it can quiz you, and it can explain answers to you in a really thorough way. Of course, it can also be used to cheat, since it can generate long answers (and even entire essays) based on prompts. I’m not here to argue about morals or academic integrity, but I will say that teachers are getting wise to the ways of students who use the AI tool to complete written work. Here’s what they’re looking for and how you can still use ChatGPT to help you with written assignments in a way that won’t get you in trouble.
I suppose, like with criminals getting caught, it is the lazy ones who caught out by copy-pasting (same modus operandi). If ChatGPT is used as an aid, like search, dictionaries, spell checkers, etc, and the student formulates their understanding using their own words, ChatGPT (and similar tools) will be just fine.
It is actually an important part of the learning process to formulate and express one's understanding using ones own words. The text from a textbook could also just be copied as is, but that won't be original work, nor will it be expressing understanding of the work.
Rewrite completely what you get from ChatGPT, and make sure to fact check it, and you will actually learn something.
I tested out GPTZero on some of my blog posts, and it is good to know I'm certified as 100% human.
