Project Overview and Scope

Home>Academics>Academic Resources>AI@AUP: A Campus-Level Initiative>

What should AUP鈥檚 response be to the advent of ChatGPT and other generative AI tools? These tools are powerful and widely available, and are increasingly embedded invisibly in other tools. AI@国产三级片aims to facilitate the development of campus-level guidance for faculty, staff, and students, so that they can consider the impact of AI on teaching, learning, scholarship and work at the university, and understand the wider context and implications of the development and use of these tools.听听

As a community, we need to address together the AUP-specific implications of AI for听

  • the world our graduates will enter听
  • the administrative infrastructure of our institution听
  • faculty teaching and student learning听
  • the fields of study for academic disciplines听

Running initially from Spring 2024 through Spring 2025, the AI@国产三级片initiative aims to help the 国产三级片community to do just that. We are coordinating the development of AUP鈥檚 campus-level guidance on AI, but we see this as part of a broader campus-level response that begins with consultations and produces not only policies and guidance, but also training, resources and possibly proposals for curricular modifications.听听

These are the preliminary goals of the initiative, which may be revised according to community consultations:听

  • Articulate shared recognition of challenges & needs听
  • Develop guidance for practice and provisioning of resources听
  • Develop capacities and support for engaging with AI听
  • Explore integration of AI literacy into the core curriculum听
  • Facilitate exploration of AI-related intellectual questions across the disciplines听

Initially proposed by Jeff Gima and Geoff Gilbert, this project was formally launched in Spring 2024 at the request of AUP鈥檚 President, Sonya Stephens, and Provost, Hannah Westley. The primary focus of the initiative is on implications of generative AI for teaching and learning. Recognizing that similar issues are arising with other types of AI, and in other areas of university activity besides teaching and learning, the project will in some cases broaden its scope when this feels useful and appropriate.听听

This initiative draws inspiration from others鈥� work, some of which is gathered under Developing higher ed AI initiatives, and in particular from the following:听

  • Esther Brandon, Lance Eaton, Dana Gavin and Allison Papini鈥檚 article 鈥溾�� (EDUCAUSE Review)听
  • Cecilia Ka Yuk Chan鈥檚 article 鈥溾�� (arXiv preprint)听
  • the 谤别辫辞谤迟听
  • work done at the American University in Cairo and other AMICAL Consortium universities, as captured by various AMICAL events on generative AI such as (panel recording and links to resources mentioned)听

Previous open discussions on AI organized by AUP鈥檚 Teaching & Learning Center, as well as conversations with Claudia Roda (as Computer Science faculty member and UNESCO Chair for AI and Human Rights, with Susan Perry), have also influenced these plans.听听

Goals and expected outcomes听

The table below expands upon the goals mentioned above and lists some of the outcomes that we hope will mark progress on the project. As this project is grounded in a process of consultation with stakeholder groups, we expect that the targeted outcomes, but also to some extent the goals and the way these goals are pursued, will be revised over the coming year.听

GOALS听 EXPECTED OUTCOMES听
Articulate shared recognition of challenges & needs听

Engage faculty, staff and students in conversations to articulate together a shared recognition of challenges & opportunities represented by AI, as a campus community and as specific stakeholder groups (e.g. students, teachers of writing, etc.) and interested partners (e.g. alumni with relevant experience/expertise)

Clarify with specific stakeholder groups the existing resources they have (e.g. internal expertise) and the actions they feel are needed most in light of the above challenges, as well as the appropriate scope of those actions (campus, department, classroom, etc.)

For campus units/groups not working directly on teaching/learning/scholarship but with a general interest in these working environments (e.g. HR, CSE): encourage their development of workplace policies drawing on work from the project proposed here, and offer them suggestions/feedback if desired.
