Event Description
This event is part of the TA Institute, taking place from January 15-19, 2024
Online
Eligibility: The TA Institute is open to all undergraduate TAs, graduate students who are interested in teaching, and all graduate student TAs. This session is not open to general staff or faculty.
Note: Participants should bring a laptop or electronic device to use in the session. The utilization of diverse Artificial Intelligence forms, including tools like ChatGPT, has become a prominent topic in recent discussions. As educators, it is essential for us to reflect on our involvement with AI and its potential impact on learning experiences—whether it serves to enhance or diminish them. Throughout this session, we will explore the progress in AI, examining both its potential drawbacks in a classroom setting and the possibilities for integrating it to augment certain lessons.
