Academic Seminar｜Xiangen Hu：With LLM: Play its help role in teaching and learning

On November 2nd, Lunchtime Academic Discussion, the Intelligent Education Center, specially invited Xiangen Hu, a lifelong professor of Memphis University and dean of the School of Psychology of Huazhong Normal University in the United States. In the future, Professor Yuan Li, Professor of Tore and related researchers from the School of Education participated in the exchange.

Professor Hu has shared the theme of "becoming a friend with LLM: playing his help in teaching and learning". He explained the emergence of large language models and opened up a new path for the innovation of teaching models, so that teachers can more accurately understand and meet students' learning needs. Nevertheless, how to effectively use these large language models to improve the teaching effect is still a challenge to be resolved.

Next, Professor Hu told the new tools he developed -a course generation system based on the ChatGPT 4 interface. The core concept of the system comes from Socrates' dialogue teaching method. Ancient Greek philosopher Socrates used questions to ask questions to guide students to think deeply to achieve the goal of deep learning. This method has proven to effectively stimulate students' thinking ability and help them understand and master knowledge more deeply.

Professor Hu said that his curriculum generation system adopted a similar way. According to the degree of learning and understanding of students, the system raises a series of problems to guide students to think and discuss in -depth. This approach is conducive to improving students' learning effects, and at the same time, it also provides convenience for teachers to understand the learning situation of students, and then conduct more effective teaching.

He emphasized that effective learning should not only answer questions, but should stimulate learners to think deeply and think of potential issues. Professor Hu also combined his many years of research and practical experience to share the unique insights on the theoretical framework, practical application of building an adaptive teaching system, and the symmetry of educational resources and the needs of learners.

In the interactive interaction of activities, scholars have discussed the feasibility, technical problems, funding support, and its impact and impact on education and teaching models used in education and teaching models in education. The seminar ended successfully in the exchanges of the academic atmosphere, providing participants with an important reference for in -depth understanding of large language models in education and teaching application.
