Teachers, especially in crowded classrooms, often have difficulty allocating enough time to provide feedback. ChatGPT has the potential to deliver feedback more efficiently and effectively.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of ChatGPT\u2010generated feedback in students' project proposal development process. Therefore, ChatGPT\u2010generated and instructor's feedback are compared in terms of perceived feedback quality and performance of students.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>In the study, a post\u2010test control group experimental design was used. A total of 48 students enrolled in a blended course at a state university participated in the study for 6\u2009weeks. The study was conducted using a randomised post\u2010test\u2010only control group experimental design. Students were asked to prepare a project proposal and feedback was given on each task. While the control group received instructor feedback, the experimental group received ChatGPT feedback. Data were collected via the Formative Feedback Perceptions Scale, and the students' project proposals were graded based on the rubric to evaluate their performance.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results and Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>According to the Mann\u2013Whitney <jats:italic>U<\/jats:italic> test analysis, there was no statistically significant difference between the experimental and the control group regarding both students' perceived feedback quality and performance. In conclusion, it can be argued that when guided by the appropriate prompts and asked to examine assignments of similar complexity to those in this study, ChatGPT can provide feedback of similar quality and equivalence to the feedback provided by instructors. In this way, it seems possible to improve students' learning as much as an instructor with individualised feedback by ChatGPT. Finally, it should be noted that these findings are within the limitations of the specific context of project proposal development, reliance on self\u2010reported data, and the experimental nature of the study; it is recommended to evaluate the effectiveness of AI\u2010generated feedback in different contexts.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jcal.70134","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,22]],"date-time":"2025-09-22T22:40:09Z","timestamp":1758580809000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Comparison of <scp>AI<\/scp>\u2010Generated and Instructor Feedback: No Significant Difference in Perceived Feedback Quality and Neither on Performance"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"41","author":[{"given":"\u015eeyma","family":"\u00c7a\u011flar\u2010\u00d6zhan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Technologies and Information Systems Bart\u0131n University  Bart\u0131n T\u00fcrkiye"}]},{"given":"Perihan","family":"Tekeli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Distance Education Application and Research Center, Hacettepe University  Ankara T\u00fcrkiye"}]},{"given":"Selay","family":"Ark\u00fcn\u2010Kocadere","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer Education and Instructional Technology Faculty of Education, Hacettepe University  Ankara T\u00fcrkiye"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10639\u2010024\u201012594\u20102"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","first-page":"47","article-title":"What Students' Want in Written Feedback: Praise, Clarity and Precise Individual Commentary","volume":"11","author":"Austen L.","year":"2018","journal-title":"Practitioner Research in Higher Education"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s41239\u2010024\u201000455\u20104"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14703297.2025.2499174"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10758\u2010021\u201009511\u20108"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/03075079.2019.1654450"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14703297.2024.2363901"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","unstructured":"Cao S. andL.Zhong.2023.\u201cExploring the Effectiveness of ChatGPT\u2010Generated Feedback Compared With Instructor Feedback and Self\u2010Feedback: Evidence From Chinese to English Translation.\u201d Preprint arXiv:2309.01645."},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/03075071003642449"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICALT58122.2023.00100"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijinfomgt.2023.102642"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/bjet.13558"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.22034\/MEB.2023.405421.1080"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11528\u2010024\u201000965\u2010y"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_16_1","volume-title":"Peer Feedback in Esl Writing: Effects on Writing Skill, Self\u2010Efficacy, and Enjoyment","author":"Fang Y.","year":"2025"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/02602930903197883"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10639\u2010024\u201012912\u20108"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_19_1","volume-title":"How to Design and Evaluate Research in Education","author":"Fraenkel J.
