Read our New Blog Post: Artificial Intelligence’s Latest Advance (ChatGPT)
Research group Open AI released ChatGPT at the end of November and has since created a buzz among higher education professionals. We’ve dived into a sea of commentary and curated a selection of articles that may inform your approach to instruction and your conversations with colleagues about this new tool.
Faculty Communities of Practice
There will be three communities of practice launching soon:
-
Anti-Racist Pedagogy – facilitated by Taylor Marrow
-
Gamification – facilitated by Bill Hamlin
-
Integrating Learning Strategies (for teaching co-requisite support courses) – facilitator to be announced
A fourth community of practice focusing on assessment is also being explored.
Stay tuned for details!
