Embracing Generative AI in Education

Notes from Ray Schroeder’s Keynote at the inaugural Teaching with AI Conference

Generative AI, especially tools like ChatGPT, is poised to revolutionize the educational landscape. With the upcoming launch of OpenAI Academy, the integration of AI in higher education is more imminent than ever. Here are the key takeaways for educators:

• AI as a Teaching Tool: GenAI can serve as tutors, curriculum developers, and assessment assistants, enhancing the teaching and learning experience.
• AI Literacy: Incorporating AI skills in curriculums is crucial. Graduates without AI literacy might face challenges in the job market.
• Interactive Assessment: Focus on students’ interactions with AI platforms for a more in-depth understanding of their grasp on subjects.
• Admin & Content Creation: AI can assist in administrative tasks, content creation, and making information accessible for all students.
• Ethical Considerations: While AI offers numerous advantages, it’s essential to be aware of the ethical implications, especially in human-AI interactions.
• Stay Updated: The AI field is rapidly evolving. Continuous learning and staying updated with the latest developments is vital.
