Back again!
Some of my colleagues in the fraternity, especially those teaching the humanities subjects, use ChatGPT as a tool to get students to analyse essay-type responses. Whether ChatGPT has answered the essay question adequately according to the marking criteria. I imagine the response will serve as a mentor text for weaker writers. For those whose ideas are swirling in their heads but lack the metacognitive skills to structure their thoughts. For the stronger writers, ChatGPT responses may strengthen their writing as they are aware of the limitations and become more conscious of putting in the things to flesh out a response (e.g, substantiation with concrete examples, transition phrases that ensure a smooth flow between ideas)
Of course, the teacher can just use student samples, but ChatGPT is a time-saver for us who has to juggle 1001 things every day. Haha
