Abstract

Abstract

It has becoming increasingly essential to comprehend how academic research addressed the role of tools like ChatGPT as artificial intelligence continues to transform the educational landscape. This study used Research Rabbit as a bibliometric mapping tool to examine current trends in educational research on ChatGPT, referencing sources like Semantic Scholar and Crossref. Finding popular research issues, well-known writers, and new areas of interest in this expanding field using Research Rabbit platform is the major goal. Through keyword analysis and networks from related research, the paper has described how educational research on ChatGPT has changed since its launch. The study has pointed to several important themes, such as individualized learning experiences, ethical issues in AI use, academic writing support, and AI-supported learning. These outcomes provided information about how academics and educators were reacting to the use of generative AI in the classroom. The paper has emphasized how crucial it is to adapt instructional strategies and curriculum creation to the rapid advancements in technology. Institutions need to prepare students for the difficulties of a world that is becoming more digital and dynamic by using ChatGPT to better comprehend global academic engagement. This research has contributed to the discussion on how educational systems can continue to be inclusive, progressive, and relevant in the face of ongoing innovation.
