Generative AI – Resources from Broadview Press
Broadview offers two exciting new resources on the role of generative AI programs (such as ChatGPT), written by leading expert Sidney I. Dobrin.
Free resource
Instructors and college administrators are grappling with many difficult questions arising from the emergence and public availability of generative AI (GenAI) tools such as ChatGPT:
- What impact will AI have on post-secondary institutions?
- Can AI be integrated into higher education in productive and ethical ways?
- How will teaching and assessment change?
- What are the implications of AI for professional, institutional, and civic communication?
This free resource provides administrators and faculty with fundamental information about GenAI and its bearing on instruction and institutional policies. Eminently practical and informed by the latest (and forthcoming) technical developments, Talking about Generative AI will be a boon to anyone who is suddenly confronted with the problem of how to understand and address GenAI’s impacts.
AI and Writing is an indispensable guide to composing with generative AI. Sidney I. Dobrin prepares students to use GenAI effectively, ethically, and critically—skills now essential for academic and professional success. The book tackles core questions: What tasks do these tools best support? Where do they fall short? How are they used responsibly?
Dobrin focuses on durable, transferable writing practices, as well as the real-world issues raised by AI, including authorship, plagiarism, copyright, bias, and the material consequences of AI. “Provocations” boxes spark critical engagement, and each chapter concludes with a sequence of exercises and activities that move students from analysis to hands-on experimentation and reflection.
