“I use large language models in teaching to automatically analyze students\u2019 course projects and provide feedback. Prompts shared with students allow them to analyze their project at any time and receive ongoing feedback. Although the final assessment is carried out by the lecturer, continuous automatic feedback makes it more efficient to handle a large number of students and gives them the opportunity to improve their work immediately without having to wait for a meeting with the lecturer.<\/p>\n

I have also used language models to create examples, improve the usability of learning support environments, and develop smaller teaching support tools, such as a grade calculator. The grade calculator allows a student to quickly simulate what final grade they might receive based on interim results.<\/p>\n

In addition, I have used language models for ideas and support in enhancing Moodle course pages and created small interactive learning objects to explain various topics.”<\/p>\n

In what topics can I offer support?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Application of large language models in teaching and feedback automation. Creating interactive learning objects and teaching support tools with the help of artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n
