Resumo

The purpose of this research is to examine the opinions of mathematics teachers and secondary school students about the use of ChatGPT artificial intelligence application in mathematics education. The sample of the study, conducted according to the case study, one of the qualitative research methods, consisted of 16 mathematics teachers working in different schools in Van province and 17 students studying in a state secondary school in the autumn term of the 2023-2024 academic year. A semi-structured interview form was applied to the groups before and after the application and the collected data were content analyzed. The results obtained from the analyses show that teachers think that they can use ChatGPT artificial intelligence-based mathematics education to increase student achievement in mathematics courses. They also stated that ChatGPT can be presented as an innovative method that needs to be integrated into education, will support the learning process and can ensure that the courses are student-centered. Students, on the other hand, stated that they could support their individual learning, complete their subject deficiencies, and create a source of creativity and inspiration. In general, all participants stated that the application can help in many aspects of mathematics and increase collaboration.
