AI & Higher Education
The CETL hosts conversations with the MGA community to explore the emergence of AI and LLMs, as well as other emergent technologies, and their impact on our institution and higher education in support of MGA's Strategic Plan. Resources related to AI are available below and in the Faculty Toolbox.
Generative AI & Your Coursework
Provide clear directions to your students about how they can use generative AI in your course, if at all. Without specificity and clarity from you, some students might assume incorrectly about your requirements for the course. You might consider the traffic light model:
Students can use generative AI in whatever ways they want for your course, and they must cite any AI-generated information/work that they submit and/or upload.
Example of a language reflecting a green-light approach:
“Feel free to discuss your ideas and collaborate with others, including using generative AI tools. Ensure that any work not originally created by you is properly cited with appropriate sources.”
Please note the wording above is mere guidance at this stage. MGA's newly established AI Task Force will be working on official wording this semester.
