The Undergraduate Chemistry Education Study Program, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Yogyakarta State University (YSU), once again held a Visiting Professorship on Monday, April 21, 2025. The event featured an international speaker, Dr. Wu-Yuin Hwang from National Dong-Hwa University, Taiwan. This guest lecture was given in the Visualization for Chemistry Learning course and was attended by fourth- and sixth-semester students. This activity was part of an effort to improve the quality of technology-based learning and strengthen international academic collaboration within the Faculty.

Dr. Hwang presented on the topic "Using GPT and Authentic Contextual Recognition to Generate Math Word Problems with Different Difficulty Levels." In his presentation, he explained the use of artificial intelligence technology, specifically the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) language model, to generate math word problems based on authentic contexts. Furthermore, GPT can also be used to programmatically and systematically adjust the difficulty level of problems. This approach is considered capable of improving students' critical thinking skills and the relevance of learning to real life.

According to Dr. According to Dr. Hwang, authentic context recognition allows artificial intelligence systems to recognize everyday situations related to learning topics, making the questions generated more meaningful and challenging. This technology also has the potential to support the development of adaptive and personalized learning media. In the context of chemistry learning, this interdisciplinary approach is considered highly beneficial, as many chemistry concepts are closely related to mathematical calculations and applications in everyday life.

The students demonstrated high enthusiasm for the material presented, especially during the demonstration session on solving learning problems using GPT. This activity provided new insights for students in designing innovative, technology-based learning. Therefore, the Visiting Professor program is expected to not only broaden students' knowledge but also encourage the development of creative, contextual, and artificial intelligence-based chemistry learning.
