Nevertheless, there is a noticeable lack of research, particularly in Greece, that focuses on the development and assessment of lesson plans and math worksheets tailored for students with special educational needs. To address this research gap, we designed and conducted a nine-hour teaching intervention in a general mathematics classroom in Greece, involving two 8th grade students with special educational needs as the subjects of the study. The intervention utilized worksheets generated by the ChatGPT 3.5 application, which were customized based on the current curriculum, as well as the special educational needs and interests of the two participating students. The data were collected through interviews, tasks, and e-questionnaires, and analyzed using a new theoretical framework based on the concept of mathematical familiarity. The results indicated that students were actively engaged in the educational process, felt safe and confident, satisfactorily met the learning objectives, and developed positive attitudes towards the mathematics course. The paper concludes with a list of good practices, teaching suggestions and restrictions that could be useful to teachers and education policymakers. The target audience for the current study is, mainly, mathematics teachers who serve at all levels of education and have students with special educational needs in their classrooms. Furthermore, the article may also prove of interest to students, parents and teachers who are interested in the interaction between mathematics education and generative AI.\u003Cbr>Keywords: special educational needs, mathematical familiarity, math worksheets, ChatGPT, qualitative research |\n| --- | --- |\n\nRecent research has highlighted the importance of effectively distinguishing between artificial intelligence (AI)-generated and human-written text, a critical issue across various fields, including education. Theocharopoulos et al. (2024) investigated the detection of AI-generated scientific abstracts using large language models (LLMs), revealing both significant challenges and advancements in the text classification accuracy. Additionally, the study by Theocharopoulos et al. (2023) on identifying AI-generated book reviews underscores the need for robust methodologies to preserve the integrity of educational content, achieving  \nan impressive accuracy rate of 96.86% in differentiated between human and AI-generated text. These findings emphasize both the potential and limitations of LLMs in educational settings, aligning with our objective of integrating AI to enhance learning experiences for students with special educational needs.  \nAI refers to the intelligence demonstrated my machines, particularly computer systems, and is regarded by professionals as closely related to algorithms and tools for building computer programs (see Ding et al., 202","cbCaie1rMvQna2Mi","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaie1rMvQna2Mi","pdf",593320,24,"English","# Introduction\n## Generative AI and its educational impact\n## Distinguishing AI-generated text from human writing\n## AI definitions and societal relevance\n## Inclusive education and differentiated teaching","[{\"question\":\"What research gap does the study address?\",\"answer\":\"The study targets the lack of research in Greece on designing and assessing lesson plans and math worksheets tailored for students with special educational needs using generative AI.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the intervention designed and implemented?\",\"answer\":\"A nine-hour teaching intervention was carried out in a general mathematics classroom with two 8th-grade students with special educational needs, using ChatGPT 3.5 to generate worksheets customized to curriculum, needs, and interests.\"},{\"question\":\"How were learning outcomes and student experiences evaluated?\",\"answer\":\"Data were collected through interviews, tasks, and e-questionnaires, then analyzed using a new theoretical framework based on mathematical familiarity, leading to reported engagement, safety, confidence, and achievement of learning objectives.\"}]","Enhancing mathematics education for students with special educational needs through generative AI - A case study in Greece | PDF",1792090635]
