ChatGPT’s Impact on Student Learning: A Systematic Review

A large study by Deng et al. (2025) found that ChatGPT helped students perform better academically and feel more motivated about learning, though the researchers weren't sure if the improvements came from students actually learning more or just getting better answers from ChatGPT. The study suggests ChatGPT can be useful for education but recommends teachers find ways to test students' real understanding rather than just looking at work that might have been enhanced by ChatGPT.
