One thing many of us struggle with is how to talk to our students about A.I. These tools are useful and fast becoming ubiquitous, but can short-circuit student learning and undermine the development of critical thinking skills. Faculty member Graham Dobereimer made a video for his general chemistry students explaining how they might benefit from A.I. tools and what pitfalls to avoid.
There are multiple approaches to AI in the classroom and Dr. Dobereimer’s take won’t fit every learning environment. But we wholeheartedly agree with his laser-like focus on how these tools impact student learning. Whatever your A.I. policy, that should be your primary concern.
