Kathleen Clark, Gizem Solmaz-Ratzlaff, Mark Watford: A Survey of Students’ Unprompted Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence in University Calculus Courses

Abstract: While calculus courses remain a gatekeeper for undergraduate STEM students in the U.S., there is a growing phenomenon of students seeking support from generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools. However, little is known about how students are organically using such tools to aid in their calculus studies. Therefore, we developed and implemented a survey to explore students’ practices and beliefs regarding the use of GenAI in their calculus studies. Our analysis of 361 responses revealed that usage was strongly predicted by perceived benefits. Additionally, we found a significant relationship between beliefs about GenAI’s reliability and students’ practice of using GenAI to assist with graded assessments. We highlight these important findings and note that they point to the need for incorporation of AI literacy in mathematics education.
