Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT in the education system has gained attention in recent years. This experience report explores students' perceptions and suggestions for integrating ChatGPT in a computer science course. Following a ChatGPT activity which includes code completion and analysis, seven students participated in in-depth interviews. Findings from the transcribed interviews suggest that ChatGPT has the potential to enhance learning experience including programming. They highlighted the tool's ability to respond immediately to queries and supporting personalised learning. However, they raise concerns that heavy reliance on ChatGPT may adversely affect students' critical thinking and problem-solving skills. These findings show the importance of carefully balancing using ChatGPT in computer science courses. The findings of this research have significant implications for educators, curriculum designers and policymakers as they explore integrating AI tools into educational contexts.
