Abstract

This study investigated lecturers’ perceptions of using ChatGPT as a tool to support English teaching. Specifically, the study aimed to explore English as a Foreign Language (EFL) lecturers’ perceptions of the benefits and challenges of using ChatGPT in the teaching process, and their suggestions to improve the effectiveness of ChatGPT integration. Data were collected from in-depth interviews with ten EFL lecturers at three faculties of a public university in central Vietnam specializing in language and culture training. The research results show that using ChatGPT brings many outstanding benefits to lecturers such as saving time and reducing workload by supporting them in preparing teaching materials and suggesting teaching ideas suitable to their needs. Lecturers also appreciate the role of ChatGPT as a tool to help them develop their expertise and necessary skills such as critical thinking skills or technology skills. However, they also mentioned some challenges when using Chat GPT such as ChatGPT's limited ability to provide relevant and reliable information or their lack of knowledge and skills to use ChatGPT effectively. Lecturers in this study also expressed their desire to be supported by their institution, faculties, and colleagues to improve the effectiveness of using ChatGPT through activities such as training workshops, conferences, and seminars. They are also aware of the inevitable trend of applying artificial intelligence in teaching and the importance of self-learning, and updating technological advances to keep up with the changes.
