Follow-up session to the Workshop “Implications of AI for Teaching Academic Writing”

The initial workshop, which took place in May and June, provided a comprehensive overview of the role of AI in the context of writing development and writing instruction. The interest expressed by many of its participants have led us to arrange a follow-up session specifically designed to address the practical aspects of integrating AI-related tools and methodologies into your classes for the upcoming winter term. Participants should bring their syllabus as well as some ideas on how they want to incorporate AI in their class. We will discuss possible teaching scenarios as well as transparent communication of what is expected to students.
