The New Robot Overlords: AI-Generated text in the Classroom
In our latest Instructor-focused episode we discuss the space that AI-Generated text (ChatGPT) occupies in our classroom. Topics include positive uses for the tool, addressing concerns over misuse and abuse (e.g., using AI generated text to write an essay or "conduct research"), classifying misuse of generated text as plagiarism, and many other issues around the capability. While this episode may not necessarily answer questions you may have about ChatGPT and its ethical use in the classroom, we hope that you will find it to be informative. At the very least it may be calming to know that you aren't the only instructor unsure of how new, evolving technologies, may disrupt our classrooms.

Putting Yourself Into It: Using the Subjective ”I” in Academic Writing
Of all the questions we get in the writing classroom each semester, "Can I use 'I' in my paper" has to be the one most asked, and it isn't even close. Many of us have heard, and adhere to, "Don't use 'I' in your paper" but perhaps have forgotten why or never asked. Realistically, unless formally required to not do so, there really is no restriction on using "I" in your writing. That being said, your use of the subjective "I" should be used sparingly and in a way that is appropriate to the context and purpose of the text. This week we breakdown this common "rule" and discuss when it may be appropriate to use "I".
