LUNCH & WORKSHOP
TEACHING JAPAN IN THE AGE OF AI
OCTOBER 7, 2023  |  12:40 PM - 1:40 PM PDT

Are you an IUC alum currently grappling with the sudden changes wrought on the teaching profession by the advent of generative AI? Together we will discuss the challenges presented by ChatGPT for student learning and assessments; discuss best practices for talking to students about the use of AI; and brainstorm course assignments that effectively hone critical thinking skills in an age when take-home essays and online discussion posts can be undetectably produced by AI.
