The Inquiry Based Learning Platform with Generative Artificial Intelligence to Promote Remembering and Understanding Skills for Dental Public Health Students

The objective of this research is to develop the architecture of the inquiry based learning platform with Generative AI (IBL platform with Gen-AI) in order to promote remembering and understanding skills for dental public health students. The platform developed in this research is based mainly on the principles of inquiry based learning, which consists of five steps (i.e., engagement, exploration, explanation, elaboration, and evaluation), combined with the technology of Generative AI. Thus, the platform herein is capable of creating new and unprecedented contents by means of the learning style that focuses mainly on participatory learning. It is expected that this method of learning assists learners in the enhancement of the skills related to thinking, remembering, and understanding, which can further promote intelligence quotient in terms of cognitive domain, highly necessary in the learning society in this digital era. The suitability of the architecture of the IBL platform with Gen-AI was assessed by nine experts with specialized in the dental anatomy, and information technology. The research results show that the overall suitability of the elements towards the architecture of the IBL platform with Gen-AI is at highest level. It can be summarized that the guideline to further develop the IBL platform with Gen-AI to promote remembering and understanding skills for dental public health students through web applications.
