our teaching.IntroductionOn Monday, November 4, 2024, during a closed-book test for Statics given on computers, onestudent saw another copy a question, paste it into ChatGPT, and enter the answer just before timeran out on the test.The student cheated, of course, but the argument was made that the test question which askedanything that easily answered by a computer isn’t a good question to ask anymore. For some portionof our teaching careers, it was still good practice to make sure that the students knew the basicsbecause they might not always have a search engine handy. At this time and in the future, it is timeto assume that the students will always be able to look things up easily and quickly.At its heart, education is about preparing our

For example, as noted by [9], ChatGPT andpresumably other GPT and AI tools are not HIPAA compliant. As such, students and users of AIshould understand the privacy constraints concerning the use of their data.Bias – Bias appears to exist in the chatbots, perhaps as a result of the corpus of data that themodel was trained upon [8].

Thus, since many engineering students are eventually going to graduate and becomeengineering managers who may utilize AI tools, engineering educators and researchers mustcontinue to explore ways to enhance students’ familiarity and proficiency with AI systems.LimitationsThis exploratory study utilized a limited sample in a randomized survey.

However, the growing influence of generative AI tools like ChatGPT has also raised concernsregarding academic integrity and appropriate use, particularly among younger learners [16].Rather than viewing AI solely as a threat to traditional education models, recent efforts advocate for itsresponsible integration to enrich learning environments [11]. Strategies such as developing custom AIchatbots aligned with educational objectives offer pathways to maintain academic rigor while leveragingthe strengths of AI technologies [17]. At the forefront of this movement, work presented at the AmericanSociety for Engineering Education (ASEE) has demonstrated the effective use of custom generative AIchatbots as course resources [18], [19

of course mapping and alignment is neither challenging nor time-consumingwith the assistance of ChatGPT. By providing the course coverage, outcomes, and content,ChatGPT was able to generate units, lessons, and related assignments efficiently. However, fine-tuning is necessary to align the generated lessons and units with the specific teaching materialsand objectives of the course.Future work could focus on refining the modular approach by incorporating more interactive andhands-on activities to address feedback regarding engagement. Additionally, expanding the useof this structured alignment method across other disciplines or multi-disciplinary courses couldvalidate its broader applicability.
