April 19th Faculty Forum on Generative AI and Writing
Dear Faculty Colleagues,
Please join us this coming Friday, April 19th via Zoom for a noon Faculty Forum on Generative AI and Writing hosted by Academic Technology Services.
We will be joined by four faculty members from the University Writing Program: Brendan Johnston, Marit MacArthur, Lisa Sperber, and Carl Whithaus; Erik Fausak, a veteran campus librarian and expert in the health sciences and veterinary medicine will also offer his perspective on AI and conducting research.
MacArthur, Sperber, and Whithaus will discuss a human-centered approach to generative AI in the context of AI feedback and peer review, while Johnston and Fausak will discuss potential uses and drawbacks of using AI for finding relevant literature, testing clinical questions, and extracting data from sources.
All of us continue to be curious about the ways that artificial intelligence affects teaching and learning at UC Davis. I’m grateful that these campus writing experts will share what their own research has revealed. I hope you can plan to join us for the conversation.
Please register now so you can join us Friday April 19th at noon for the conversation. If you are unable to join us live on Zoom, please visit The Wheel in the subsequent week to watch the recording.
See you on April 19th!
Dr. Andy Jones
