Here's a new video from the the guys at New Ed Tech Classroom with information on five highly useful apps, one of which is ChatGPT, and possible ways to use them in our teaching. Granted, they are thinking along K-12 lines, but there is much that is applicable to working with our college students in various modalities. Here's the link:

Massive changes have occurred recently with regard to artificial intelligence (AI) and the ability of the public to generate novel text and images using AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT). Many in education are concerned with what this means for assessing student understanding: if a student can generate a novel, accurate essay on almost any topic, how will you assess learning from short-answer and essay assignments?

On 02/01/2023, a campus collaboration of the APUE STEM+ Ed@State, Enhanced Digital Learning Initiative (EDLI), Center for Teaching and Learning Innovation (CTLI), MSU Libraries, and MSU IT EdTech, hosted the "Symposium on AI in Education and Academic Writing". During the symposium, the basics of how AI works were shared and attendees had opportunities to play with some AI tools. The event provided opportunities to hear how faculty are addressing these challenges, discuss concerns and opportunities with colleagues, and reflect on individual teaching philosophies in the time of artificial intelligence (AI).

Ahead of our first meeting next week on September 30, I've been doing a bit of digging around and came upon two interesting resources from Dr. Monica Burns that combine EdTech with collaborative learning:

1) EdTech Fundementals: Tech-Friendly Models of Collaboration
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lB1dGk3BTO8

and

2) Class Tech Tips: All Things EdTech
https://classtechtips.com/

Interesting, perhaps useful, and certainly will help start our conversation when we meet next week.

Here's a fascinating (and very useful) tutorial from Sam Kary of New EdTech for creating student choice boards in Google Docs to empower students by giving them offer a choice in how they are assessed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2u_TXmQhIwU

Thank you everyone for an interesting year of discussion in and around the ongoing challenge of how we might better motivate and engage our students in the physical and digital classroom here at MSU.

Thank you everyone for an interesting year of discussion in and around the ongoing challenge of how we might better motivate and engage our students in the physical and digital classroom here at MSU. With that in mind, I've complied a working bibliography, of sorts, containing (mostly) recent titles that provide practical information on motivating and engaging students, teaching critical/deeper thinking, the application universal design for learning, collaborative learning, reflective learning, culturally responsive and inclusive teaching practices, Ed Tech and digital learning among other approaches. All titles are readily available through Amazon. I hope you might find a few of the titles useful as we steam through the coming summer months and toward Fall 2022. Maybe there are a couple of titles here that might provide some lighter "beach reading" as we look forward to some downtime after a couple of difficult years.

Thank you again everyone!

Kind Regards,

Stokes and Garth
