Témata: *CHATGPT, *INSTRUCTIONAL systems design, *PESSIMISM, *Q technique, *ATTITUDE (Psychology), *DESIGN services, *NATURAL language processing
Abstrakt: In this study, Q methodology was employed to explore instructional designers' perceptions of integrating ChatGPT in their design practices. Compared with traditional survey-based instruments that rely heavily on Likert-scale items, open-ended questions, interviews, or focus groups, Q methodology has the potential to systematically reveal and study subjectivity within a certain group of participants with both quantitative and qualitative techniques. The participants of this study consisted of 19 practicing instructional designers, who were asked to sort a total of 25 statements regarding the integration of ChatGPT into instructional design practices. Findings revealed three distinct types of factors: (1) Pessimistic Evaluators, (2) Optimistic Advocates, and (3) Wary Thinkers. Characteristics are discussed with direct quotes from representative participants from each of the three factors. The study also revealed that instructional designers mainly used ChatGPT to generate content, help improve writing and problem-solving, communicate, and engage in information searching. Regarding the challenges instructional designers encounter, the study reported that they were primarily bothered by the low quality of the ChatGPT-generated content, the limitation of ChatGPT itself, and their unpreparedness to embrace the tool. Limitations of the current study, as well as recommendations for future studies were also mentioned. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
