Teaching with AI: Beyond the Buzz & Into the Classroom
Have you experimented with ChatGPT, Google Bard, or DALL-E, also known as generative AI tools, but are feeling overwhelmed by the sheer pace with which these tools are transforming education and society at large? Since AI is rapidly evolving, as educators, it's hard to know where to begin and how or if to utilize Generative AI in our teaching. In this episode, Angela and guests, Emily Rush, Matt Swagler, Kerry O'Grady, and Claudia Martinez discuss how they've used generative AI in their teaching and professional practices and what their student responses have been to the advent of these tools. As early adopters, they also share their advice on how to incorporate AI in classroom activities, assignments, and what they've learned in the process. They also reflect on how AI has forced them to reconsider their teaching and design practices as a whole. The big takeaway: to paraphrase Brent Anders, it doesn't have to be all or nothing with AI. Being intentional about if, how, and when we use it is key!
Thank you to all guests for your valuable insights and your impressive leadership in the realm of AI and education!
