Adapting written assignments for EFL classrooms with ChatGPT at universities

Abstract

In the era of Generative AI with thousands being introduced each year, ChatGPT adoption has become mainstream. Making use of this tool for learning, particularly as a writing assistant in EFL classes is of significant importance. The paper attempts to elaborate on how written assignments in EFL classes can be adapted to the ChatGPT use among students and how they are instructed to maximise their learning with this tool. The library-based approach was adopted to gather evidence for the relevant discussions and evaluations for each method introduced.
