Education, 2025 Barkplug 2.0 and Beyond: a Chatbot for Assisting Students in High DFW CoursesAbstractHigher education continues to respond to the challenges and opportunities presented by artificialintelligence (AI) and large language models (LLM) such as ChatGPT. In our prior work weintroduced a chatbot that used AI and LLM to recruit prospective students, assist current studentswith academic advising (course selection, changing majors) and student affairs (directingstudents to university resources regarding the campus community, housing and dining, studentorganizations, mental health and more). Towards the promotion of student success initiatives wereport in this work our formulation of course specific teaching

parameters.Appendix 4 details the performance of the Gemini, ChatGPT, and Perplexity AI tools in thesetasks, providing practical examples of their capabilities. Through a mixed-methodology approachthat includes a literature review, case studies, and practical experimentation, this researchexplores how AI can optimize these areas and develops a theoretical and practical frameworkthat guides its effective and ethical implementation.Research ObjectivesThe primary purpose of this study is to explore and assess the impact of Artificial Intelligence(AI) on the management and operation of Information Systems (IS) within educational andbusiness environments. Specifically, the research aims to:1. Evaluate how AI can improve operational efficiency in information

examples forclarity and engagement in conceptually hard courses such as programming. Also, similar to priorliterature [33], this study highlights that student satisfaction is coupled with clarity andengagement with the material. AI-based Large Language Models such as ChatGPT can enhancestudents’ engagement with pre-class materials by providing interactive explanations,personalized feedback, and intelligent tutoring support tailored to individual learning needs [35].The study's results must be viewed in the light of some limitations and future directions. First,the study was based on self-reported student perceptions of two types of videos. Future studiescould consider other measures, such as time spent on each video and a performance measureafter

]. Anotherstudy indicates that ChatGPT-4 outperforms ChatGPT-3.5 and BARD by Google Inc. in several reasoning tasks,particularly in abductive reasoning, mathematical reasoning, and commonsense reasoning [46]. Therefore, in thisstudy, we chose GPT-4 as our preferred LLM model.Educational Implications in Engineering Easy access to psychological monitoring and measurement is imperative in engineering education due to theunique stressors associated with this field. Studies have shown that the engineering culture, often perceived asmasculine, competitive, and exclusionary, can lead to significant stress and mental health challenges for students,particularly for women and students of color [47]. This environment is characterized by a belief in enduring
