Trust and Transparency Are Key Factors When Using AI in Academia - Andrew Lang, Campus Technology

By allowing students to freely utilize ChatGPT during both in-class activities and independent work, Turtova not only taps into the potential of AI to enhance students' writing skills but also encourages creativity and critical thinking. Turtova continued: "Outside of class, students were encouraged to use ChatGPT for brainstorming, generating text, and revising their work without any limitations or penalties. Interestingly, only two of the 15 students relied solely on ChatGPT for text generation, while the rest used it as a writing tool with their own input. Many students enjoyed interacting with the AI and found value in developing skills related to AI usage and their writing abilities.
