Generative AI at the University
Welcome to this week’s Tel US podcast, brought to you by the TEL team at the University of Sunderland. In this episode, host Mel Foster from the TEL team is joined by co-host Dan Henton, guest Vanessa Parson (an academic development partner working in AI and assessment across the institution), and guest James Gott (a learning designer in the TEL team).
They discuss AI, specifically generative AI, and its impact at the university. The conversation covers a wide range of topics including:
* Defining what AI is, its history, and differentiating it from search engines.
* How AI can assist staff and academics in areas like preparing teaching materials, generating ideas, and saving time.
* Student use of AI, its prevalence, how they are using it (often for brainstorming and support), and the ethical considerations around it.
* The idea of AI as a fundamental tool and skill for the future, essential for graduates.
* Examples of how AI is being integrated into existing university systems like Panopto, Canvas, and the Adobe suite.
* The limitations and issues surrounding the use of AI detection for plagiarism, including accuracy and data protection concerns.
* The potential and limitations of using AI to support academics in creating feedback, emphasising AI as an assistant rather than a replacement for marking.
* The dangers of putting sensitive data into external AI tools.
* Information on where staff can find resources and training on AI at the university.
Get ready to explore how AI is changing everything and how the university community can navigate its use.
