A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Notetaking One way to help avoid plagiarism is notetaking Notetaking & paraphrasing tips (Safe Practices from Purdue OWL): In your notes, always mark someone else's words with a big Q, for quote, or use big quotation marks Indicate in your notes which ideas are taken from sources with a big S, and which are your own insights (ME) When information comes from sources, record relevant documentation in your notes (book and article titles; URLs on the Web)
3. Notetaking Social bookmarking tools (like Delicious) can help with notetaking Take notes as you bookmark Diigo has more storing/notetaking options than Delicious
14. Notetaking with the backchannel The backchannel? Side-bar discussions in a classroom or during conferences or meetings. Can these conversations add to the discussion? Utilizing the backchannel can help with notetaking 40% of classroom lecture/discussion is captured in average student’s notes. Backchannel is like taking notes together.
15. What captures the backchannel? Microblogging platforms Microblogging - Posting small pieces of information - commentary, links, photos - on the internet. Most microblogging services limit characters Can help students with summarizing and paraphrasing. How do you concisely say what you need to in 140 characters? Paraphrasing also helps them not plagiarize
16. Microblogging in education Can use Twitter, but know that Twitter has two privacy settings – either public or private. No in between. Two tools may be better for the classroom: TodaysMeet Edmodo
19. TodaysMeet wrap-up Easiest platform to use No account or login needed Because you only need the link, anyone with the link could technically enter the room. No privacy controls
22. Edmodo wrap-up Class management: upload files, calendar, assignments, create polls, etc. Students do need to login, but don’t need an email address. As the teacher you can get notifications when anything occurs in Edmodo. This is a private tool, only those you allow in are allowed.
23. Microblogging guidelines Create guidelines for class microblogging: Grade what they type? Do they need to use proper grammar? When quoting things, put a capital Q at the beginning If paraphrasing or summarizing, link to it Participation counts, so participate Any misuse of the tool will have consequences Outline guidelines before you begin Carry through with misuse of guidelines
24. Microblogging rubrics Create rubrics to use with microblogging, it can be something that is graded Use rubrics even as simple as this for participation: This and other rubrics linked under Month 6
25. Why microblogging? Group notes can help students Notes remain in the cloud and can be revisited Introducing blogging/chatting, with guidelines, helps students realize how online tools can be utilized for their education
26. Between now and our meeting… Sign up for a Diigo account BEFORE our in-person meeting Register your account to be an Educator account Blog your thoughts about notetaking, either by yourself or with others, in the cloud. How can this enhance your classroom? Links to everything is under MONTH 6!
27. Next meeting dates/times Sanford Monday, January 10, 2011, 4:45-6:45pm South Tuesday, January 11, 2011, 4-6pm Southwest Thursday, January 20, 2011, 4-6pm
