用实验发现:AI助写提升作文成绩,但可能让人变懒,影响深层学习。
Beware of Metacognitive Laziness: Effects of Generative Artificial Intelligence on Learning Motivation, Processes, and Performance
- 对比人、AI、工具三类辅导,看学生自控学习过程差异
- 用AI改作文成绩更好,但知识掌握和迁移没明显提升
- 提醒警惕:过度依赖AI会引发元认知懈怠,影响长期学习
随着技术与教育创新的发展,学习者如今可获得来自教师、同伴、教育技术和近期兴起的生成式人工智能(如ChatGPT)等多类支持。混合智能概念尚处初期,学习者如何与人类专家、智能学习系统及AI形成协同关系仍不明确。本研究通过随机实验,比较了在写作任务中获得不同支持(ChatGPT、人类专家、写作分析工具、无额外工具)的大学生群体在学习动机、自我调节学习过程与学习表现上的差异。共招募117名大学生,收集并分析其多通道学习数据。结果显示:各组在任务后内在动机上无显著差异;但自我调节学习行为的频率与顺序存在显著差异;使用ChatGPT组在作文得分提升上表现更优,但知识获取与迁移效果无显著差异。研究发现,在动机未变化的前提下,不同支持方式导致学习过程分化,最终影响绩效。尤为值得注意的是,像ChatGPT这样的AI技术可能助长学习者对技术的依赖,诱发元认知懒惰。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
With the continuous development of technological and educational innovation, learners nowadays can obtain a variety of support from agents such as teachers, peers, education technologies, and recently, generative artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT. The concept of hybrid intelligence is still at a nascent stage, and how learners can benefit from a symbiotic relationship with various agents such as AI, human experts and intelligent learning systems is still unknown. The emerging concept of hybrid intelligence also lacks deep insights and understanding of the mechanisms and consequences of hybrid human-AI learning based on strong empirical research. In order to address this gap, we conducted a randomised experimental study and compared learners' motivations, self-regulated learning processes and learning performances on a writing task among different groups who had support from different agents (ChatGPT, human expert, writing analytics tools, and no extra tool). A total of 117 university students were recruited, and their multi-channel learning, performance and motivation data were collected and analysed. The results revealed that: learners who received different learning support showed no difference in post-task intrinsic motivation; there were significant differences in the frequency and sequences of the self-regulated learning processes among groups; ChatGPT group outperformed in the essay score improvement but their knowledge gain and transfer were not significantly different. Our research found that in the absence of differences in motivation, learners with different supports still exhibited different self-regulated learning processes, ultimately leading to differentiated performance. What is particularly noteworthy is that AI technologies such as ChatGPT may promote learners' dependence on technology and potentially trigger metacognitive laziness.
