Friday SLO Talk, May 5, 2023 SLOs for Deep, Lasting Learning and Navigating the Implications of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Teaching and Learning

ByJarek Janio

Generative artificial intelligence is a rapidly growing technology with the potential to revolutionize the way we teach and learn. However, as with any new technology, it is important to consider the implications it may have on education. We explore the impact of generative AI on education, specifically in the fields of computer science, information technology, and the humanities. The session will begin with an overview of generative AI and how it works, followed by a discussion on the potential implications it may have on the way we teach and learn. Attendees will have the opportunity to share their own experiences with the technology and brainstorm ways it can be used in their own educational contexts.
