TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION AND INNOVATION OF CHAT GPT AND AI AT SMPS RK DELI MURNI BANDAR BARU MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS

Abstract

Education in the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era demands innovation in the application of technology to improve the quality of learning. One increasingly popular innovation is the use of Chat GTP (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) and artificial intelligence (AI) in the educational context. This research aims to investigate the impact of implementing Chat GTP and AI in learning for students at SMPS RK Deli Murni Bandar Baru, North Sumatra in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0. The research method used is a case study involving junior high school students as research subjects. Data was collected through observation, interviews and questionnaires to evaluate students' perceptions and performance in using Chat GTP and AI in the learning process. Apart from that, data is also analyzed to identify the benefits, challenges and opportunities of implementing this technology. The research results show that the application of Chat GTP and AI in learning can increase learning interest, student involvement, and understanding of technology concepts. Students also show a positive response to the use of this technology in the learning process. However, some challenges such as technology accessibility and anxiety regarding changing teacher roles still need to be addressed. These findings provide an important contribution in developing learning strategies that are more innovative and responsive to the demands of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era. The practical implication of this research is the need for a holistic approach to integrating technology into the curriculum, as well as adequate training for educators to utilize the potential of Chat GTP and AI technology effectively in the learning process.
