"A Comparison of AI-Assisted and Manually Scored Student Writing in Physiology Education."

J. Zubek, C. Shaltry

This study will explore the efficacy of ChatGPT-4 Turbo in assessing written assignments within a physiology laboratory course. Building upon previous studies, it will present a detailed methodology for incorporating AI into educational settings, focusing specifically on writing tasks. The study will also examine the advantages, potential obstacles, and ethical implications of employing AI in education.

The results of this study will have significant implications for teaching with AI, notably in large lecture settings where student engagement is often confined to multiple-choice and similar closed-ended evaluation.
