1 Introduction
Recently, the extensive worldwide acceptance of ChatGPT has showcased its remark-
able versatility in various applications and scenarios, such as software development and
testing, essays, business letters, and contracts (Reed 2022; Tung 2023). ChatGPT is
a free and conversational AI chatbot software application using natural language pro-
cessing (NLP) launched by OpenAI on November 30, 2022 (Rudolph et al. 2023; Tlili
et al. 2023). The human-like conversations that ChatGPT provides allow users to ask
questions, make requests, and receive responses in seconds (Rudolph et al. 2023). Also,
ChatGPT can answer follow-up questions, challenge incorrect premises, and admit mis-
takes (Zhai 2022). The powerful functions that ChatGPT supports make it the most
advanced chatbot in the world so far because it has received much attention for engaging
in conversation naturally and intuitively with users (Rudolph et al. 2023). However, it
is not easy to distinguish the text generated by ChatGPT or humans, so higher edu-
cation teachers have difficulty assessing students (Rudolph et al. 2023). In addition,
Lin et al. (2023) indicated that more and more people applied NLP to build conversa-
tional chatbots, but the system lacks human cognition capability when the chatbot is
a companion in learning. Kasneci et al. (2023) pointed out the importance of critical
thinking, competencies, and literacies necessary to understand the technology and its
unexpected frangibility since there still are risks and biases of AI applications. Therefore,

this study aims to answer the following research questions: (1) What are the concerns
about ChatGPT in education? (2) What are some ways educators could utilize ChatGPT
from different disciplines? (3) What are the potential solutions to solve the concerns
about using ChatGPT in education? The following sections briefly describe the research
method, present results, and discuss study implications and conclusions.
2 Methods
The selection of existing literature is a critical step in conducting a literature analysis.
As Fig. 1shown, in the stage 1, the keywords, “ChatGPT” and “education*” were
used to perform an opening search to retrieve related articles from the Scopus database.
The initial result of 340 documents was obtained. In the stage 2, 243 documents were
removed because their titles and abstracts did not contain the keywords, “ChatGPT”
and “education*,” leaving 97 documents for further screening. In the stage 3, in order
to maintain the consistency of the research quality, the document type was limited to
Article, and the language was limited to English. Finally, 47 eligible articles were the
main interest of this analysis by May 22, 2023.
Fig. 1. The research design.
The next step was to conduct a bibliometric analysis to analyze existing literature
and apply VOS viewer to construct and visualize bibliometric networks that can identify
and cluster key terms to realize the leading directions of future research (Ali and Gölgeci
2019). The Co-occurrence type was chosen in VOS viewer with the All keywords unit of
analysis to perform the co-occurrence keyword network. After combining similar key-
words, setting two as the minimum number of occurrences of a keyword, and removing
the searching keywords, 33 of 311 keywords were taken closer discussed.
3 Results and Discussion
This section reports the concerns mentioned in target articles, the co-occurrence network
result from the VOS viewer, and conducts the analysis of the themes.

3.3 Thematic Analysis
For the first and second research questions, this section presented the concerns about
using ChatGPT in education and how educators utilize ChatGPT from different disci-
plines. Since the study focused on the educational concerns about ChatGPT, this section
discussed the major concern in three clusters in Fig. 2. The major concern in Cluster
1(red) was Ethics, the major concern in Cluster 2 (blue) was Plagiarism, and the major
concern in Cluster 3 (green) was Academic integrity.
Some scholars mentioned several concerns about ethics in using ChatGPT. Dwivedi
et al. (2023) indicated that ChatGPT benefits people in information technology indus-
tries, banking, hospitality, and tourism. Still, users need to recognize the limitations
of ChatGPT, including threats to privacy and security, disruptions to practices, misuse,
misinformation, and consequences of biases. Kasneci et al. (2023) highlighted several
Concerns About Using ChatGPT in Education 45
challenges of AI, such as users having to keep oversight and avoid potential bias. People
should pay attention to prevent the misuse of AI to ensure a responsible and ethical
manner responsibly and ethically in education. Iskender (2023) applied ChatGPT as
an interviewee to examine its impact on higher education and academic publishing in
the hospitality and tourism industry. ChatGPT can help teachers convey tasks, students
brainstorm ideas, and the tourism and hospitality industry provide personalized services
and create advertising content. However, if users over-rely on ChatGPT, they arelikely to
have lower critical thinking ability and lose the originality and novelty of their academic
work (Iskender 2023). Tlili et al. (2023) conducted a case study to examine ChatGPT
in educational settings. The authors called people’s attention to the use of ChatGPT
because of the ethical issues, such as cheating, privacy misleading, manipulation, and
honesty and truthfulness of ChatGPT. Cascella et al. (2023) pointed out that ChatGPT
trained on a massive dataset of text for dialogue can bring benefits and impressive people
with its capabilities, users are still concerned about ethical issues and the performance
of ChatGPT in real-world scenarios, especially in healthcare and medicine that requires
high-level and complex thinking.
Some scholars mentioned several concerns about plagiarism in using ChatGPT. Cot-
ton et al. (2023) suggested that AI tools like ChatGPT can increase learners’ accessibility,
collaboration, and engagement, but it is hard to detect academic honesty and plagiarism
in higher education. Lim et al. (2023) pointed out that ChatGPT has popularized gen-
erative AI, an educational game-changer, and they suggested that people should adopt
generative AI rather than avoid it in the future of education. Although ChatGPT can
generate text for multiple processing tasks, such as translating languages, summarizing
text, and creating dialogue systems, people worry about plagiarism and cheating issues
using ChatGPT (Khan et al. 2023).
Some scholars mentioned several concerns about academic integrity in using Chat-
GPT. Cascella et al. (2023) assessed the practicality of ChatGPT in clinical practice,
scientific production, misuse in medicine, and reasoning about public health topics, and
the results suggested that people should recognize the drawbacks of AI-based tools and
apply them in a proper way in medical education. The role of ChatGPT in medical edu-
cation and clinical management includes automated scoring, teaching or research assis-
tance, creating content to facilitate learning, personalized learning, decision support, and
patient communication. Still, it cannot replace humans’ knowledge and capability (Khan
et al. 2023). Thurzo et al. (2023) pointed out that AI applications in dental education
started in 2020, and most dental educators were not trained to use AI technology.
For the third research question: What are the potential solutions to solve the con-
cerns about using ChatGPT in education? This study summarized several suggestions
for educational organizations to address the concerns about Ethics, Plagiarism, and
Academic integrity. Tlili et al. (2023) suggested that people in education should care-
fully apply chatbots, especially ChatGPT, in safe settings and take responsibility for
the adoption. Also, universities have to make sure the ethical and responsible use of AI
tools with suitable strategies, such as providing training, developing policies, and dis-
covering approaches to detect and prevent cheating (Cotton et al. 2023). Teachers have
to model and use ChatGPT responsibly and prioritize critical thinking to avoid the risk
of copyright infringement, potential environmental impact, and issues related to content
46 S.-M. Lin et al.
moderation when science teachers design units, rubrics, and quizzes (Cooper 2023).
Nevertheless, ChatGPT still has advantages in certain fields. Pavlik (2023)promotedthe
potential of AI for journalism and media education because it generates content with
high-quality written expression. ChatGPT is free to use and allows users to input text
prompts with fast text responses from the result of machine learning with the Internet.
4 Conclusion
This study conducted a bibliometric analysis to analyze the existing literature on Chat-
GPT in education and applied the VOS viewer to construct and visualize the thematic
analysis. It focused on realizing the current status of this field, such as several con-
cerns about using ChatGPT in education, some ways educators could utilize ChatGPT
from different disciplines, and the potential solutions to solve the concerns about using
ChatGPT in education. Since ChatGPT in education is an ongoing hot topic in many
fields, results from this study may support researchers in developing and designing their
research in the future.
Since 43 of 47 (91%) target articles indicated concerns when using ChatGPT in
education field, the authors provided a general view of concerns about using ChatGPT
in education from 3 aspects, (1) Ethics, (2) Plagiarism, and (3) Academic integrity.
ChatGPT can be applied in lots of fields, such as information technology industries,
medicine, and education. In information technology industries, users have to consider
the issues of privacy, security, and misinformation. Also, when users ask ChatGPT to
make decisions, they may face ethical or legal problems since AI applications have
lower critical thinking ability. In the medical field, ChatGPT is used for clinical practice,
scientific production, and reasoning about public health topics, but it still cannot replace
humans’ knowledge and capability. Not to mention, most dental educators have not been
trained to use ChatGPT. In the education field, ChatGPT can help users brainstorm and
provide personalized services. However, if people over-rely on ChatGPT, they may lose
the originality and novelty of their academic work and have plagiarism issues.
To sum up, ChatGPT is a popular AI tool currently in most fields to support people’s
work. However, as an educator, our priority is to make people know its advantages and
disadvantages. ChatGPT indeed can aid people in generating ideas and making decisions
quicker and easier, but users still should take responsibility for ethical and legal issues.

Chapter
Since its introduction, artificial intelligence (AI) has had inevitable effects on education including foreign language learning. ChatGPT, as the most advanced form of AI, has brought about many concerns and opportunities for both language teachers and learners. This chapter tries to probe more deeply into the concerns expressed over the use of ChatGPT in foreign language classrooms in the voices of teachers with an emphasis on finding ways to address those concerns. The results of the inductive analysis of interview data revealed a new concern in addition to the previously identified concerns, i.e. threats to teachers' and students' creativity. It is concluded that ChatGPT, with all its differences, can be regarded as a disrupter of a constant, traditional routine rather than a disrupter of education itself and that, to deal with it, like any other new technology, the only way ahead of teachers is adaptation and changing threats into opportunities.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is developing in a manner that blurs the boundaries between specific areas of application and expands its capability to be used in a wide range of applications. The public release of ChatGPT, a generative AI chatbot powered by a large language model (LLM), represents a significant step forward in this direction. Accordingly, professionals predict that this technology will affect education, including the role of teachers. However, despite some assumptions regarding its influence on education, how teachers may actually use the technology and the nature of its relationship with teachers remain under-investigated. Thus, in this study, the relationship between ChatGPT and teachers was explored with a particular focus on identifying the complementary roles of each in education. Eleven language teachers were asked to use ChatGPT for their instruction during a period of two weeks. They then participated in individual interviews regarding their experiences and provided interaction logs produced during their use of the technology. Through qualitative analysis of the data, four ChatGPT roles (interlocutor, content provider, teaching assistant, and evaluator) and three teacher roles (orchestrating different resources with quality pedagogical decisions, making students active investigators, and raising AI ethical awareness) were identified. Based on the findings, an in-depth discussion of teacher-AI collaboration is presented, highlighting the importance of teachers’ pedagogical expertise when using AI tools. Implications regarding the future use of LLM-powered chatbots in education are also provided.

Purpose With the advent of ChatGPT, a sophisticated generative artificial intelligence (AI) tool, maintaining academic integrity in all educational settings has recently become a challenge for educators. This paper discusses a method and necessary strategies to confront this challenge. Design/methodology/approach In this study, a language model was defined to achieve high accuracy in distinguishing ChatGPT-generated essays from human written essays with a particular focus on “not falsely” classifying genuinely human-written essays as AI-generated (Negative). Findings Via support vector machine (SVM) algorithm 100% accuracy was recorded for identifying human generated essays. The author discussed the key use of Recall and F2 score for measuring classification performance and the importance of eliminating False Negatives and making sure that no actual human generated essays are incorrectly classified as AI generated. The results of the proposed model's classification algorithms were compared to those of AI-generated text detection software developed by OpenAI, GPTZero and Copyleaks. Practical implications AI-generated essays submitted by students can be detected by teachers and educational designers using the proposed language model and machine learning (ML) classifier at a high accuracy. Human (student)-generated essays can and must be correctly identified with 100% accuracy even if the overall classification accuracy performance is slightly reduced. Originality/value This is the first and only study that used an n-gram bag-of-words (BOWs) discrepancy language model as input for a classifier to make such prediction and compared the classification results of other AI-generated text detection software in an empirical way.

The evolution of natural language processing techniques has led to the development of advanced conversational tools such as ChatGPT, capable of assisting users with a variety of activities. Media attention has centered on ChatGPT’s potential impact, policy implications, and ethical ramifications, particularly in the context of education. As such tools become more accessible, students across the globe may use them to assist with their homework. However, it is still unclear whether ChatGPT’s performance is advanced enough to pose a serious risk of plagiarism. We fill this gap by evaluating ChatGPT on two introductory and two advanced university-level courses. We find that ChatGPT receives near-perfect grades on the majority of questions in the introductory courses but has not yet reached the level of sophistication required to pass in advanced courses. Moreover, adding a few full stops or typos may fool a machine learning algorithm designed to detect ChatGPT-generated text. These findings suggest that, at least for some courses, current artificial intelligence tools pose a real threat that can no longer be overlooked by educational institutions.

This paper provides an in-depth analysis of how Chat GPT and social media can be used as tools for capturing real-time student feedback on teaching styles in higher education. The study employs neutrosophic sets to deal with the uncertainties and ambiguities that arise in student evaluation data. Traditional methods of evaluating teaching styles in higher education, such as paper-based surveys, may not fully capture the nuanced experiences of students in the classroom. Recent advancements in chatbots, such as ChatGPT, and the growing use of social media platforms offer new opportunities for more efficient and effective methods of evaluating teaching styles. However, there are significant challenges in using these technologies, including the handling of indeterminate and uncertain data. Neutrosophic sets provide a mathematical framework for handling ambiguity and uncertainty in data and can be used to better capture the complex and multifaceted aspects of student experiences in the classroom. Additionally, the use of chatbots and social media platforms raises practical and ethical concerns that must be addressed in the evaluation process. This study aims to explore the role of ChatGPT and social media in enhancing student evaluation of teaching styles in higher education using neutrosophic sets, while also addressing the practical and ethical challenges that arise from their use.

ChatGPT is an AI tool that assisted in writing, learning, solving assessments and could do so in a conversational way. The purpose of the study was to develop a model that examined the predictors of adoption and use of ChatGPT among higher education students. The proposed model was based on a previous theory of technology adoption. Seven predictors were selected to build a model that predicted the behavioral intention and use behavior of ChatGPT. The partial-least squares method of structural equation modeling was used for data analysis. The model was found to be reliable and valid, and the results were based on a self-reported data of 534 students from a Polish state university. Nine out of ten proposed hypotheses were confirmed by the results. Habit was found to be the best predictor of behavioral intention, followed by performance expectancy and hedonic motivation. The dominant determinant of use behavior was behavioral intention, followed by personal innovativeness. The research highlighted the need for further examination of how AI tools could be adopted in learning and teaching.
