Abstract
This exploratory case study examines the implications of Chat GPT used as a tool in the classroom. This is an empirical study of how effectively Chat GPT can be utilized as an innovative educational tool in the classroom. This is studied from the online and traditional classroom approaches. At this time, Chat GPT demonstrated it can be utilized as a tool to assist students in researching and working through complex topics in computer science and engineering in traditional and online classrooms. The students utilized Chat GPT through researching topics and assignments from these classes to improve their understanding of the material. The online and traditional classroom data were compared and contrasted to determine the effectiveness of Chat GPT and educational techniques in the classroom by incorporating evidence from tests, assignments, and in-class gamification contests. This study demonstrates that students learn and retain more material on computer science topics when utilizing Chat GPT as an educational tool in the classroom. It argues for the use of Chat GPT as a means to increase understanding of complex and advanced applications by incorporating best practices and training in Chat GPT prior to use.
