Abstract:

Elementary school is a period in which children acquire social skills as their lives change from family-centered to peer-centered. While ethical stories appearing in school textbooks have some moral dilemma requirements, they do not reflect balanced moral issues. This study developed an AI chatbot according to the moral development theory of Kohlberg (1984) to check the morality level of elementary school students, and to compare the quality of AI chatbot program to the written learning materials.
The AI chatbot program was built using Google's Dialogflow and was developed after pilot test of 4 elementary students. The subjects were elementary school 5th and 6th graders (10-11 years) who had no experience in learning activities using AI chatbot. As a result of the pilot test, the subjective questions to check whether students conducted video learning was difficult, so it was revised to multiple choice questions. This study is currently conducting an investigation into the experimental and control groups (each 30 students from 2 classes). The final results will be released at the conference.
