European Journal of Education, v60 n1 e12848 2025
ChatGPT is one of the most popular artificial intelligence tools today. The number of users is increasing rapidly every day. ChatGPT, which is used in many fields for different purposes, has the potential to revolutionise the field of education and health. The study aims of the study is to investigate the learning experiences and expectations of midwifery students who use ChatGPT in their theoretical and clinical education. This study was conducted through an interpretive paradigm based on Heideggerian hermeneutic phenomenology, a qualitative research method. In the study, the maximum diversity sampling method, one of the purposive sampling methods, was used. One-to-one in-depth interviews were conducted with a total of 17 midwifery students. The study data were collected through a three-part interview form. The data obtained were analysed with the MAXQDA program. As a result of the data analysis, three main themes and seven sub-themes were identified. The main themes are The Role of ChatGPT in Midwifery Education, The Effect of ChatGPT on Student Development and Concerns about the Use of ChatGPT. Midwifery students use ChatGPT for various purposes in theoretical and clinical courses. Although students are satisfied that artificial intelligence tools save time and make learning practical, students have some concerns about ChatGPT.
