Advice | When AI Does the Reading for Students The technology that powers ChatGPT is quickly transforming reading practices. What does that mean for your assignments?

"Let those without sin cast the first stone." I'm not sure I can complain about students using #AI to summarize course #reading when I've done the same to get thru the flood of materials I need to review. We need to ask when is reading key for learning, and when not

The Reading Struggle Meets AI The crisis has worsened, many professors say. Is it time to think differently?

The Professors Are Using ChatGPT, and Some Students Aren’t Happy About It

There is appropriate and inappropriate use of #AI for both students and faculty. Important to talk about how/when student use supports or undercuts learning; also how faculty use on low level tasks can open up time for more human interaction in our courses.

Some examples of custom #chatbots for instruction, where faculty are in control of how the tool supports their teaching and learning goals. The interview about #Cogniti about that faculty-led project had some good points.

These Students Use AI a Lot — but Not to Cheat For some students, the technology can effectively replace collaborative learning with classmates and office hours with professors.

University students offload critical thinking, other hard work to AI Two studies indicate students are using chatbots to undermine what they learn

Sometimes the work of #learning is supposed to be hard, that's the point. I use #GenAI and other #AI tools to support my work, so I'm not against it. We need to work w/ students to use it in ways that supports their meeting course #LearningOutcomes.

The Course Is About Literature. Its Textbook Was Generated by AI. News of the UCLA course has spurred worry and criticism, but its professor is unfazed. “I feel more empowered by this process,” she says.

One of the more misleading article titles I seen for a while. The instructor provided her course materials (notes, slide decks, etc); the #AI platform ( #Kudu ) just assembled it into an interactive textbook that students can chat with.
