Geometric understanding, ChatGPT, Anxiety levels, Learning and Cognitive styles, Executive functionsAbstract
This study examines the impact of an integrated teaching approach, combining ChatGPT and traditional methods, on geometric understanding in third-grade students (ages 9-10). Grounded in Piaget’s and Van Hiele’s theories, the research involved 436 students from Attica, Greece, divided into an experimental group and a control group, 218 students each. Performance assessments focused on symmetry and plane shapes, alongside evaluations of Anxiety Levels, Learning Styles, Cognitive Styles, and Executive Functions.
Results indicate that the experimental group outperformed the control group in geometric reasoning, demonstrating improved understanding and application of geometric properties. Correlations between anxiety levels and cognitive styles suggest that tailored teaching strategies enhance engagement and comprehension. Statistical analyses confirmed the effectiveness of the integrated teaching method, highlighting its meaningful impact on students’ learning outcomes.
This study contributes to the literature on effective pedagogical strategies for young learners, emphasizing the importance of aligning teaching methods with cognitive development. The findings suggest that integrating technology into education can promote deeper learning in geometry, with implications for future instructional practices in mathematics education.
