Description
Summary:Abstract A significant advancement in artificial intelligence is the development of large language models (LLMs). Despite opposition and explicit bans by some authorities, LLMs continue to play a transformative role, particularly in education, by improving language understanding and generation capabilities. This study explores LLMs’ types, history, and training processes, alongside their application in education, including digital and higher education settings. A novel theoretical framework is proposed to guide the integration of LLMs into education, addressing key challenges such as personalization, ethical concerns, and adaptability. Furthermore, the study presents practical case studies and solutions to barriers, such as data privacy and bias, offering insights into their role in enhancing the teaching–learning process. By providing a systematic analysis and proposing a structured framework, this study advances current knowledge and highlights the significant potential of LLMs in revolutionizing education.
