Time, emotions and moral judgements: how university students position GenAI within their study
The emergence of Generative AI (GenAI) in higher education has prompted considerable discussion within the research community. Despite their centrality, students’ perspectives remain underexplored....
In January 2024, I asked an auditorium full of community college instructors to tell me which stage of grief resonated most when they thought about their relationship with AI. Here's what they said:
7%: Denial - AI is overrated. I'll just wait it out.
15%: Anger - AI is running amok and undermines critical thinking.
38%: Bargaining - I'd learn more about AI if I wasn't so darn busy.
3%: Depression - What I love about teaching is slipping away.
38%: Acceptance - I'm ready! Where's my AI teaching assistant?
How do you think the results would shift if you posed this question to faculty today? Do you think your colleagues are feeling significantly *more* or *less* optimistic about AI than they were a year or two ago? If so, why?
