Abstract

This study examines the changes in learners' positive/negative perceptions of classroom experience and actual utilisation of AI chatbots in response to the recent changes in education trends caused by generative AI. AI chatbots were utilised in web programming classes for six classes of engineering students over two semesters. The learners' experience and usage were analysed from the beginning of the semester through surveys until the submission of midterm and final examination reports. The study's results indicate that the chatbot enhanced learning by providing Q/A feedback and solving practical problems. Additionally, the perception of the chatbot improved from midterm to the end of the course. The study also drew meaningful conclusions about the issue of community disconnection (personalisation) in the classroom and how to use it as educational software. This research is significant for the development of generative AI-based software.

본 연구는 최근 생성형 AI로 인한 새로운 교육 트렌드 변화에 학습자들의 수업 경험에 대한 긍정/부정 인식의 변화와 실제 활용 형태를 살펴본다. 공학 계열 대학생 6학급을 대상으로 2학기 동안 AI 챗봇을 웹 프로그래밍 수업에 활용하였고, 학기 초부터 설문 조사를 시작으로 중간/기말 고사 보고서 제출 기간까지 학습자의 경험과 활용에 대한 변화를 분석했다. 연구 분석 결과, Q/A 피드백과 실습 문제 해결 등 학습 개선에 도움이 되었고, 수업 적용 이후 중간부터 기말범위까지 챗봇에 대한 인식이 긍정적으로 변화하였다. 이외 수업 내에 커뮤니티 단절(개인화) 문제와 교육 S/W로써 활용 방안에 대한 유의미한 결론을 도출했다. 본 연구는 앞으로 생성형 AI 기반 소프트웨어 개발을 위한 기초 연구로써 의의가 있다.
