In the months since I last posted about the impact of Generative AI (GenAI) on higher education, there has been change. The tools are more capable. There are many more tools, and finding the right one is difficult for educators. Some students are adopting GenAI tools, and some do not seem motivated to explore their uses.
Student adoption may be unethical, such as when students use the tools to complete assignments that were designed to assess their critical thinking or writing competencies. Student adoption may be ethical, such as when students use GenAI tools as directed by their professors, or creatively to generate new ideas, or to analyze complex datasets.
In my courses for the University at Buffalo School of Management in Singapore, I require students to use GenAI tools. I added the development of GenAI application competencies to the student learning goals. I will share assignments I have created, and my evaluation of the assignments and the students' work, after this fall 2024 semester concludes.
Return soon to see what I can share about teaching the effective and ethical uses of GenAI tools to university students.
