Teaching with GenAI 

Using GenAI for one’s own teaching practices 

 If, how, and where these tools figure in your design of courses and learning activities, and whether students use them in course work and assessments is for you, and your Department, unit, or academic program to decide.

Guidelines

Use cases to support you in applying GenAI in your course design, learning activities, student course work, and assessments.

See additional information and examples on CTLT’s website

  1. Building course materials and assessments
    Faculty may use GenAI for developing practice questions and rubrics, as well as discovery and curation of additional learning resources for students.
  2. Providing feedback to students, either individual or summarized*
  3. Grading against a rubric*
  4. Summarizing feedback from students* (eg textual from an in-class survey)

Considerations

  1. Inputting student work
    Due to considerations of privacy, data security, and intellectual property, educators should not submit student
    original work, without their permission, to GenAI tools that have not undergone a PIA review and been approved for that use, including AI detector tools.
  2. Human review of content
    Any content produced by GenAI used in teaching must be reviewed for accuracy, appropriateness, bias, and
    other possible harms by an instructor or TA, to the best of their abilities, before sharing with students.
  3. Transparency of usage
    Educators should clarify for students which materials are wholly or partly generated by GenAI and clearly cite the source of those materials.

*GenAI tools may be used for both formative feedback and summative assessment (grading) of student work only if they have been through a PIA review and been approved for this use.
