Large language models(LLMs) represent significant advances in the field of artificial intelligence. This fundamental technology is key to further innovation. Despite criticism and even prohibition in some parts of the world, as a fundamental technology, large-scale language models are expected to be the cornerstone of future innovation and will exist in the long term. This paper, from the perspective of students and teachers, introduces the opportunities and challenges that large-scale language models may bring in educational applications. It briefly discusses the current status of large-scale language models and their applications. It then emphasizes how to use large language models to create educational content, increase student engagement and interaction, and enhance personalized learning experiences. Regarding the challenges brought by large language models, we believe that large-scale language models in education require teachers and learners to develop corresponding abilities and literacy to understand this technology, understand its limitations and the disadvantages of such systems. In addition, this paper also emphasizes critical thinking and fact-checking, which are necessary conditions for integrating and fully utilizing large-scale language models in learning environments and teaching courses. This paper also explores other challenges brought by large language models in the field of education, such as possible biases in model output, the need for ongoing human supervision, and possible misuse, which are not limited to the application of artificial intelligence in education. However, we firmly believe that if handled properly, these challenges can provide insights and opportunities in educational scenarios, enabling students to familiarize themselves with the social biases, criticality, and risks that may be brought by artificial intelligence applications at an early stage. At the end of the article, we propose how to address these challenges and ensure that large-scale language models are applied to education in a responsible and ethical manner.
