Exploring the Possibility of Using ChatGPT in Learning Chinese : Focusing on Primary Chinese and College Scholastic Ability Test

The purpose of this study is to explore the possibility of using ChatGPT in Chinese language education and how to use it. Based on this question and idea, we tested ChatGPT with primary chinese text and the College Scholastic Ability Test of Korea. We found that ChatGPT is clearly aware of the conceptual parts of the Chinese tone, Chinese character recognition, and grammar, but have certain errors in solving the problem. Moreover, the fact that learners are leaning on their ability to judge information, especially the high rate of incorrect answers to basic knowledge, We suggests that learners below a certain level need expert guidance when learning Chinese through ChatGPT.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the possibility of using ChatGPT in Chinese language education and how to use it. Based on this question and idea, we tested ChatGPT with primary chinese text and the College Scholastic Ability Test of Korea. We found that ChatGPT is clearly aware of the conceptual parts of the Chinese tone, Chinese character recognition, and grammar, but have certain errors in solving the problem. Moreover, the fact that learners are leaning on their ability to judge information, especially the high rate of incorrect answers to basic knowledge, We suggests that learners below a certain level need expert guidance when learning Chinese through ChatGPT.
