Undergraduate Student Research

Date: September 13,2023


To: Dr. Samira Aziz
From: Nafizur Rahman, ID#2111486030.sec: 13
Subject: proposal to conduct a research project on the effects of ChatGPT on undergraduate
student research.

INTRODUCTION:

The rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) has introduced innovative tools and resources
to increase the educational landscape. ChatGPT is a natural language processing tool driven
by AI technology developed by OpenAI. It has the potential to enhance the quality of
undergraduate student research. This research proposal aims to investigate the effects of
ChatGPT on undergraduate student research.

With the help of ChatGPT, students can do data synthesis, information retrieval, critical
thinking, etc. by conducting this study we will have the answers to all the questions that
surround the use of ChatGPT in undergraduate research. Also shed light on its advantages,
limitations and potential for enhancing the learning experience.

RESEARCH QUESTIONS:

My research will address the following research questions:

● How does the use of ChatGPT impact on the efficiency and the speed of research?
● What role does ChatGPT play in improving research skills?
● What is the view of the educators on the use of ChatGPT for research?
● Does ChatGPT help to influence the quality and depth of research?
● What are the challenges and the benefits of using ChatGPT from the students
perspective?

HYPOTHESIS:

I am hypothesising that the use of ChatGPT in undergraduate research will increase the speed
and efficiency of the research work. Next, it is to be expected that use of ChatGPT will be a
great help for students to sharpen their research skills. Furthermore, I am assuming that
educators will have a mixed opinion both good and bad. Additionally, I think that ChatGPT
will positively help to influence the quality and depth of research. Lastly, the use of ChatGPT
will for sure have its own challenges and benefits for the students.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:

This research will have a mixed method approach. Which will have document analysis and
interviews. Students from various academic disciplines will be surveyed on the before and
after using ChatGPT for their research. Also, there will be a comparison between those who
use ChatGPT and those who don't. There will also be small interviews with educators and
students to know about the experiences and perceptions.

ORGANISATION:

My paper will be organised into several sections, the most important of them are the
introduction, background, data analysis, methodology, and a summary of findings.

TIMETABLE:

I hope to complete my primary research by ______ and my secondary research by


_________. I shall complete writing the final draft of my Research Paper by _________, and
submit it by the specified deadline (the last day of classes) towards the end of this semester.

REQUEST FOR APPROVAL:

I hereby request your approval for my research proposal. If you wish me to modify or
improve my proposal, I will submit it after incorporating the necessary changes. I will also be
grateful for your advice and help in conducting my research and completing the project.
