Episode 44: What AI can do for us academics (and what it can’t do for us without sucking the joy from life)
Manage episode 468185906 series 3488653
We’re speaking with writing teacher, John Warner, author most recently of More Than Words: How to Think about Writing in the Age of AI, about where AI can be an ally (it’s great a alphabetizing, as a tool for jogging our memory, generating lists and first drafts of abstracts and summaries), and where to steer clear of it. We talk about teaching and learning in the age of AI, and how to remind students of the pleasures of writing and reaching those “can’t be better” writing moments. John talks about developing a writers practice (the subject of one of his books), how to create compelling “learning outcomes/objectives” for our courses, and the tricks and pleasure of moving between different kinds of writing, effectively.
