Background

GenAI includes a range of technologies that produce text, images, video, or other content, given an example or a textual prompt. Well-known tools include chatbots such as ChatGPT and image generators like DALL-E. Faculty and students are already discovering new opportunities for the use of these increasingly powerful tools in teaching, learning, and research. The rapid evolution of this technology requires that we provide faculty with regularly-updated guidance about the impact of these tools on classroom instruction and student coursework, such as that posted on the DCAL website. In addition, recognizing the potential of GenAI to encourage experimentation in the classroom, we are also keen to support faculty who want to make innovative use of these tools in their pedagogy.
