freshman civilengineering course with a project-based collaborative format was modified to incorporate adistance engineering component based on a hypothesized highway design project. Studentgroups were separated into home and field teams, with home teams playing the role of designengineers located in the office, and the field teams playing the role of field engineers completingrequired field measurements and calculations. Both home and field teams were located in thecivil engineering building, but were physically separated by two floors. The test group only usedremote technologies (e.g. telephone, fax, email, file transfer, shared folder, chat, and video-conferencing) for all communication between home and field teams.

, leveraging its extensiveknowledge base. Mechanical engineering includes a multitude of interconnected concepts, makingit challenging for students to navigate without proper guidance. It serves as a valuable resource forstudents seeking rapid access to definitions and explanations [22]. Furthermore, it extends beyondthe confines of the classroom, offering insights into real-world applications and cutting-edgetechnologies. Therefore, the uses of ChatGPT benefits in fostering higher learning efficiency andintriguing students’ interests.However, the integration of ChatGPT in mechanical engineering education carries inherent risks,especially when users possess limited familiarity with the technology and lack appropriateguidance for its use like
