I'm testing AI tools that my interface design students might use to generate app prototypes. Here are some takeaways that could be helpful for instructors in any discipline who are concerned about incorporating AI into assignments. danielstanford.substack.com/… #AI #AIinEducation
One of my AI assignment ideas is included in the AI Pedagogy Project by metaLAB (at) Harvard & FU Berlin. If I had an Oprah-style list of favorite things to give faculty and students for the holidays, this site would be on it. Here's why: open.substack.com/pub/daniel… #teaching
Looking forward to connecting with colleagues at the POD conference in Pittsburgh later this week. You can find me at the "Power and Potential of AI" Birds of a Feather session at 8 am on Friday.

I did a thing this term where I told my students they were allowed to use ChatGPT. The catch was, they had to tell me about it in a reflection when they handed in their paper. This is a thread about how it all went.
Need short, practical examples of how you might use AI in your teaching this fall? Here are 19 ideas that could work in a variety of disciplines. open.substack.com/pub/daniel… #ChatGPT #AcademicChatter #AI
The use of AI in the opening credits for Marvel's Secret Invasion has a lot of folks up in arms. But is this really that different from past tech innovations in art and design? Here's my take. #ai #highered #teaching

Why do we let 22 year olds go directly from undergrad to grad school? Shouldn’t there be a one-year cooling off period? #AcademicTwitter
Here's the email I just sent to my students encouraging them to use AI in their final projects. #chatgpt #ai #highered

Sunday read.
This is hilarious. Engineers are competing who creates the worst UI on Reddit.
I think the winners are:

These AI-generated storyboards are gorgeous. Is this the revenge of the art history/film criticism nerds? A future where the kids with the wildest imaginations + total mastery of the language of their favorite art form become the most in-demand artists? #AIArtwork #midjourney51

Teachers: "AI is a disaster, how am I going to know who is cheating?!"
Students:
Working on a visual guide to AI challenges and opportunities in education. Which of these resonates with you? What should I add/clarify/modify? #ai #highered #AcademicTwitter
Looking forward to my workshop at the SUNY Online Summit on Wednesday. Getting on the plane in shorts and getting off in a parka? Not so much. online.suny.edu/summit/chatg…
Lately, when I read a lovingly hand-crafted sentence that expresses the unique wit and voice of its *human* author, I feel reassured that everything will be ok. Here’s today’s nugget, courtesy of @itsurboyevan. #ai #ChatGPT #writing every.to/napkin-math/should-…
Every time I see potato salad, I just see wasted potential. I see the hash browns and tater tots that could've been, but weren't. Is that wrong? People keep telling me I haven't met the right potato salad, but I'm 42 years old. Loving potato salad shouldn't be this hard.
I hope #chatgpt creates a new appreciation for small-batch, “artisanal” writing. The fingerprints of an author should be seen as a value-add, not an imperfection to be buffed out. Case in point: these paragraphs from @ibogost’s article about LaGuardia’s redesign in @TheAtlantic.
When #ChatGPT tries to mimic academic writing, it likes to use conjunctive adverbs (furthermore, additionally, etc.). This article explains why that's bad and lists ways students can revise AI-generated writing as part of the learning process. #OpenAI

The best part of prepping for a presentation on #AI in education at @universityofga? Using AI to incorporate bulldogs into my slides. See y'all Friday! #highereducation #teachingandlearning #dalle2
