What to consider in drafting your own course guidelines on students’ use of tools like ChatGPT.

And does better than you might think!

Don’t let students get away with a writing performance. Have them do the real thing.

From "machine learning" and "hallucinations" to "generative AI" and "neural networks," here are the AI terms everyone should know.

These apps use AI models like GPT-4 to the fullest.

AI can be a productivity tool—but you shouldn't get carried away.

Since the release of ChatGPT a little more than six months ago, students have quickly figured out how to get the free AI chatbot to do their homework ...

The McKinsey Global Institute has just released a report that explores how generative AI tech like ChatGPT may affect employment and work in America by 2030.

Using ChatGPT for help with our teaching, writing, and administrative work with Anna Mills #MyFest23 #equityUnbound Link to webpage link to this conference:

With the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, the field of higher education rapidly became aware that generative AI can complete or assist in many of the kinds of tasks traditionally used for assessment. This has come as a shock, on the heels of the shock of the pandemic. How should assessment practices change? Should we teach about generative AI or use it pedagogically? If so, how? Here, we propose that a set of open educational practices, inspired by both the Open Educational Resources (OER) movement and digital collaboration practices popularized in the pandemic, can help educators cope and perhaps thrive in an era of rapidly evolving AI. These practices include turning toward online communities that cross institutional and disciplinary boundaries. Social media, listservs, groups, and public annotation can be spaces for educators to share early, rough ideas and practices and reflect on these as we explore emergent responses to AI. These communities can facilitate crowdsourced curation of articles and learning materials. Licensing such resources for reuse and adaptation allows us to build on what others have done and update resources. Collaborating with students allows emergent, student-centered, and student-guided approaches as we learn together about AI and contribute to societal discussions about its future. We suggest approaching all these modes of response to AI as provisional and subject to reflection and revision with respect to core values and educational philosophies. In this way, we can be quicker and more agile even as the technology continues to change. We give examples of these practices from the Spring of 2023 and call for recognition of their value and for material support for them going forward. These open practices can help us collaborate across institutions, countries, and established power dynamics to enable a richer, more justly distributed emerging response to AI.

Students saw red flags in the study and holes in the methodology.

It’s easy to forget how little students and educators understand generative AI’s flaws. Once they actually try it out, they’ll see that it can’t replace them.

A blog about search, search skills, teaching search, learning how to search, learning how to use Google effectively, learning how to do research. It also covers a good deal of sensemaking and information foraging.

As educators, we know the potential that artificial intelligence (AI) has for our profession. Generative AI, a subset of AI that can generate new and ...
