Indeed it is the year (or perhaps month) of feverish educator interest in AI (see what we have been tracking here)-- here is one more that should be on interest to those trying to unpack the implications of ChatGPT (and it’s kin) mean for writing assignments.
Are you wondering how well AI tools like ChatGPT can generate text in response to the writing assignments you give? Could or should you adapt your prompts to prevent students from using ChatGPT and missing out on learning? How can revising prompts to encourage intrinsic motivation help? Would you do something else altogether?
Join Anna Mills @annarmills and me (Maha Bali @mahabali ) for a workshop where we experiment with different variations of academic writing prompts, trying them on the AI text generator ChatGPT.
This is more than talking about AI this is a hands on workshop - there is a shared Google Doc to, before the workshop, add a writing assignment prompt that be explored, tested modified in the workshop to modify them to be more effective in the light of AI writing tools being available.
