• In Event: ChatGPT in the Accounting Classroom: Friend or Foe or…..

Abstract

We will present a 50-minute presentation that will use and demonstrate the integration of ChatGPT into the accounting classroom. We will suggest specific activities and questions to ask ChatGPT that will highlight the power of this tool in the classroom. Our focus will be on how educators can use this tool to inspire their students and to reinforce concepts.

In the first 15 minutes of the presentation, we will provide an overview of ChatGPT and how it can be used in the classroom to help educators better engage their students. We will also explain how ChatGPT can be used as a tool for students to practice their accounting skills and to stay up to date on accounting topics.

In the remaining 35 minutes, we will demonstrate how ChatGPT can be used in the classroom. We will show how educators can use ChatGPT to ask questions about accounting topics, to create interactive activities and games, and to provide personalized feedback to their students. We will also provide examples of questions that educators can ask ChatGPT in order to highlight the power of this tool in the classroom.

At the end of the presentation, we will provide a summary of the key points discussed and will invite participants to ask questions and to provide feedback. This presentation will help educators to understand how ChatGPT can be used to make their accounting classes more engaging and to better reinforce concepts with students.
