Relevance

The panel focuses on collaborating with teaching faculty in the Arts and Humanities about how to use AI in their classes or how to protect their class projects and assignments from AI use.

Proposal

Monitoring Artificial Intelligence (AI) use by university students is a growing concern for Higher Education instructors. The technology represents a growing obstacle for educators who are concerned with plagiarism and are worried about the implications that using AI can have on college students’ development of important skill sets related to writing and research. At the same time, students and instructors alike are fascinated with the teaching and creative potential AI can bring to their disciplines. In this panel presentation, the presenters will explore this teaching and creative potential. As instruction librarians and archivists who work with students and faculty in creative disciplines – including visual art, design, creative writing, and music – the panelists share an interest in exploring AI for teaching, learning, and research in these fields. Panelists will discuss how they have collaborated with teaching faculty to develop AI-proof projects for students and the opportunities AI can have if used as a learning and creative tool for students.
