Redesigning Writing Assignments for AI 

Generative AI services such as Chat GPT have disrupted writing across the landscape of Higher Education. This session is an opportunity for faculty members to work in small groups with facilitators to pull apart one of their existing writing assignments to redevelop it in one of two ways: to make it more resistant to students unauthorized use of AI, or to incorporate students’ critical use of AI into their writing process. We will give a brief overview of some of the common generative AI services in use, as well as some do’s and don’ts with identifying AI-written content, but will focus most of the time on direct consultations on individual assignments. Participants should bring a writing assignment that they intend to revise or reformulate. This experience is tailored to faculty, staff, and graduate assistants, with teaching responsibilities. Registration is required.
