ChatGPT assists nursing PhD students with programming on the All of Us Researcher Workbench, improving efficiency and learning. While valuable, it should supplement other learning resources for complex tasks.
Area of Science:
- Health Informatics
- Nursing Education
- Artificial Intelligence in Research
Background:
- The All of Us Researcher Workbench is a critical platform for health research.
- Nursing PhD students require robust programming skills for data analysis.
- Integrating AI tools like ChatGPT can potentially enhance research education.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess the feasibility of using ChatGPT as a programming aid for nursing PhD students.
- To evaluate ChatGPT's impact on task completion time and student confidence.
- To explore student perceptions of ChatGPT's utility and limitations in research analysis.
Main Methods:
- Prospective randomized study involving 9 PhD nursing students.
- Students used ChatGPT for programming support on alternating assignments within the All of Us Researcher Workbench.
- Data collected included completion times, confidence ratings, and qualitative feedback.
Main Results:
- Median task completion time decreased for novice students and specific assignments with ChatGPT.
- Students reported ChatGPT aided in code generation, troubleshooting, and learning.
- Qualitative feedback indicated occasional inaccuracies with ChatGPT-generated code.
Conclusions:
- ChatGPT offers cognitive scaffolding, enabling students to tackle complex programming tasks.
- The tool demonstrated feasibility in supporting nursing PhD students using the All of Us Researcher Workbench.
- ChatGPT should be utilized alongside other resources for comprehensive learning and accurate analysis.
