An interesting lens for thinking about AI integration. How do we support educators with crossing into “The Dual Expertise Challenge,” where deep domain knowledge and AI literacy combine to unlock truly innovative, ethical, and impactful uses of AI?

So many are still dragging their feet on updating academic integrity for
#AIedu
integration. Stop creating unclear and unrealistic blanket
#academicintegrity
statements that don’t address the nuances of AI use in education.

We have to rethink academic integrity in a ‘post-plagiarism era’
What is the future of plagiarism as a concept in the AI age and what are the implications for assessment? This resource seeks to answer these questions, among others

We are back to the start on prompting. Reasoners break the value of chain-of-thought as a prompting technique and lower the value of giving AI a persona No new approaches to prompting reasoners have been tested in any sort of rigorous way (though folks share their best practices, they may not work)

In a recent discussion with students, many raised concerns about teacher's use of

detectors. One asked how detectors work. Using NapkinAI, I made this doc that dives into how they work, the challenges they present, and what else can be done.

One of the many skills learners need now is how to engage in meaningful use of AI. To support this, I made this Prompt-a-thon space in

that guides learners through prompt engineering and how to use it for problem-based -learning

Space practicing reading strategies. Remix for your specific needs & change the menu. Students pick a skill & share a topic of interest. AI creates a passage & asks students questions based on the skill they chose. We've used it with success!

I like to test different AI humanizers and detectors to see how they work. Today, I got this email from one of them. Honestly, I think it is hitting on a good point. Are students cheating, or are teachers assigning meaningless work?
