AI as Fad or AI as Lasting? Priorities for College Faculty Instructional Development for Generative Artificial Intelligence
Main Article Content
Abstract
As generative artificial intelligence (AI) continues to transform the landscape of education, college faculty must be equipped with the necessary skills to navigate this digital frontier effectively. This position paper argues that instructional development programs for college faculty related to generative AI should focus on three key aspects: enhancing fundamental teaching skills, making AI more familiar to educators, and preventing burnout. These three areas are interconnected and can collectively contribute to the success of AI integration in higher education. In this paper, I present and critique the ChatGPT output. I found the output to be cogent and potentially useful, but limited by inconsistencies, lack of details, and hallucinations. Although AI output may be useful for guiding practice at a surface level, it could not capture the human voice and attention to detail necessary for scholarship.
