How are you using generative AI and large language models in your classes? What are your concerns about how students use ChatGPT and other forms of generative AI? How do you teach writing and reading in your UMKC classroom? What writing and reading topics would you like to know more about and teach more effectively in your classes? Where can you turn for more guidance?
These are some of the questions the University Writing and Reading Board will explore during a discussion from 11 a.m. to noon Monday, May 1, in Zoom. Please join representatives of units across our campus as we share ideas and brainstorm UWRB programming for next year. For more information, contact UWRB Co-Chairperson Thomas Ferrel (ferrelt@umkc.edu) or UWRB Co-Chairperson Henrietta Rix Wood (woodhr@umkc.edu).
CAFE and the University Writing and Reading Board (UWRB) hosted a panel discussion on the new AI tools and how they can be considered in classrooms and in the workplace.
