Integrating Artificial Intelligence into Physics Learning: A Case of ChatGPT in Madrasah
Downloads
Abstract
Artificial intelligence, one of which is ChatGPT, has become a new technology that is already well-known and utilized by the public in daily activities. This condition can certainly have positive and negative impacts on its users. Referring to this, the purpose of this study is to determine the process of integrating artificial intelligence, especially ChatGPT, in the physics learning process. This study used a mixed method with quantitative and qualitative methods. The sample used was 59 students of MA Plus Nurul Islam Sekarbela using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected in this study through observation, questionnaires, and students' physics understanding test questions. All qualitative data were analyzed descriptively, while quantitative data were analyzed statistically using the IBM SPSS application. Based on the analysis, it was found that there was an effect of using ChatGPT in improving the understanding of physics concepts of 10th-grade students at MA Plus Nurul Islam Sekarbela. The results of the paired sample t-test showed that both classes had a t-test value with a significance of 0.000 <0.05.
