Recently, a powerful large language model has been developed called ChatGPT. In response to a large variety of prompts, it can produce a?range of human-like texts, thereby opening up opportunities for students to use it when completing assignments. The purpose of this workshop is to?consider both the positive opportunities ChatGPT presents for students and staff, as well as?the threats it might pose to academic integrity.?聽

This workshop considers what ChatGPT can do and the kinds of issues you need to be?thinking about when you are designing your tutorials or lectures in the future. Together, we鈥檒l examine what ChatGPT is and how it works; we鈥檒l talk about the opportunities and problems it presents for how we teach our classes and how we assess student learning. We will consider some strategies 鈥� both proactive and reactive 鈥� that might mitigate some of the problems it presents. Finally, we will finish with considering the hidden labour involved in making A.I. tools like Chat-GPT work and the ethical questions this poses even to students wanting to use it for their assessments with constructive, legitimate, and creative purposes in mind.?聽
