Widespread access to generative AI tools necessitates revisiting assignments to make them at the very least less vulnerable to breaches of academic integrity, but also to find opportunities to transform them into vehicles for promoting better understanding and critical use of these tools by students. Two things are certain:
- There is no silver bullet response. We know that AI detection tools do not work, and may in fact do more harm than good.
- The work of responding to this rapidly changing educational environment will require ongoing discussion and adjustment on the part of instructors as the technology evolves.
To help faculty meet this challenge, our team is offering a variety of support options. In addition to helping with the webinar series on this topic sponsored by the Provost’s office in August 2023, our team has offered our own sessions for Arts & Science faculty. Here are some of the resources from those offerings that may be helpful.
