Abstract
The research is to investigate the potential of ChatGPT in enhancing English language acquisition among Jordanian students. Additionally, it wants to compare the efficacy of learning English among Jordanian students before and after the implementation of ChatGPT as a learning facilitator. The user's text is "English". Participants comprised Jordanian students aged 19–22 years who were in their second year at Jordan University. 150 students participated in the research. The exam was administered to students before and after using ChatGPT in order to know the influence of usage on the pupils. The results established a statistically significant positive correlation between the outcomes. The mean post-test score before using ChatGPT was 65%, in contrast to a score of 78% subsequent to its usage. The paired t-test showed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05). The participants were recruited using stratified random selection to guarantee a broad representation of various students with varying levels of English proficiency.
