Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into mathematics education has demonstrated potential in enhancing students’ conceptual understanding and reasoning abilities, particularly in the context of mathematical proof. Despite these advancements, limited research has investigated the use of AI-based language models such as ChatGPT to support students in learning the logical structure of trigonometric identity proofs, which remain a challenging topic for many learners. To address this gap, this study introduces a novel learning trajectory assisted by ChatGPT aimed at improving students’ abilities in constructing and understanding trigonometric proofs. Employing a validation study design, the research was conducted in three phases: experimental preparation, experimental design, and retrospective analysis. Data were collected through observations, interviews, document analysis, and written tests, and analyzed qualitatively. A total of 50 eleventh-grade students engaged in three learning activities: studying proofs with ChatGPT-generated explanations, interacting directly with ChatGPT to explore proof strategies, and independently solving proof tasks without AI assistance. The findings indicate that ChatGPT effectively supports students in comprehending the logical steps involved in proof construction, enhances their engagement with mathematical reasoning, and promotes deeper understanding of trigonometric identities. These results highlight the potential impact of conversational AI tools in fostering proof-based thinking and enriching mathematics instruction at the secondary education level.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning technologies, which play an important role among emerging technologies, have developed rapidly and have begun to be used in various fields in recent years, especially in education. Many factors cause low student learning ability in mathematics lessons. This study aimed to analyze Gen Z students' difficulties in completing trigonometric identity proofs by utilizing ChatGPT Trigonometry-assisted learning. The type of research used was qualitative research. Research data were collected through observation of student activities, direct interviews, and related literature studies. This research was conducted in SMA N 1 Indralaya Selatan. The instruments used were test question sheets and interview guidelines. The results of this study indicate that Generation Z struggles with basic trigonometry concepts, early solution strategies, and proper algebraic manipulation. In addition, reliance on ChatGPT often reduces students' conceptual understanding of the material. This article recommends learning strategies integrating technology and direct teacher assistance to improve learning effectiveness.
