Teaching Writing in the Age of AI

September 19 at 9:00 am - 11:00 am

Individuals sitting around a desk on their laptops

For all the excitement surrounding generative AI (genAI), this technology remains poorly understood, and resources to guide students in constructive and ethical uses of genAI are only beginning to emerge. This workshop will walk participants through the ethical and academic integrity issues with genAI (especially large language models/LLMs such as ChatGPT), and then equip participants to teach academic writing effectively in the current environment. Participants will also have the opportunity to practice designing assessments that are not made redundant by genAI, and many resources shared in this workshop will be useful for participants’ own writing as well.

Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop. Outlets for chargers will be available in the room.

This workshop is part of our Research Excellence Workshop Leader Initiative.
