Emerging research is showing the complex effect chatbots are having on learning, showing the need for good design and student awareness. From The Conversation, posted in full here Excerpt: When OpenAI released “study mode” in July 2025, the company touted ChatGPT’s educational benefits. “When ChatGPT is prompted to teach or tutor, it can significantly improve academic performance,” the company’s vice president of education told reporters at the product’s launch. But any dedicated teacher would be right to wonder: Is this just marketing, or does scholarly research really support such claims? While generative AI tools are moving into classrooms at lightning…

An alternative to the vision of AI as a potential superintelligence By Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor (of “AI Snake Oil”), Apr 15, 2025 LINK: https://kfai-documents.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/c3cac5a2a7/AI-as-Normal-Technology—Narayanan—Kapoor.pdf Excerpt: We articulate a vision of artificial intelligence (AI) as normal technology. To view AI as normal is not to understate its impact—even transformative, general-purpose technologies such as electricity and the internet are “normal” in our conception. But it is in contrast to both utopian and dystopian visions of the future of AI which have a common tendency to treat it akin to a separate species, a highly autonomous, potentially superintelligent entity.1 The statement…

LINK: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10791-025-09563-9 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10791-025-09563-9 Abstract As generative AI becomes ubiquitous, writers must decide if, when, and how to incorporate generative AI into their writing process. Educators must sort through their role in preparing students to make these decisions in a quickly evolving technological landscape. We created an AI-enabled writing tool that provides scaffolded use of a large language model as part of a research study on integrating generative AI into an upper division STEM writing-intensive course. Drawing on decades of research on integrating digital tools into instruction and writing research, we discuss the framework that drove our initial design considerations and…

Those of you who work with libraries or digital collections might be interested in a webinar this Thursday at 10 AM EDT I’m leading for the Association for Information Science and Technology. Libraries have faced numerous threats in the last 30 years, including the migration of knowledge from paper publications to the Internet, decreased access to shared physical spaces during the pandemic, and budget gaps due to the potential shuttering of the IMLS and other public funding. This next transition could be the biggest yet, if the very ontology of knowledge changes from ground truth found in archives to a…

Andy Clark, Nature Communications, 2025 Extending Minds with Generative AI https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-025-59906-9 As human-AI collaborations become the norm, we should remind ourselves that it is our basic nature to build hybrid thinking systems – ones that fluidly incorporate non-biological resources. Recognizing this invites us to change the way we think about both the threats and promises of the coming age. [continue at https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-59906-9]

I wanted to share a project I’ve been working on that might be useful to folks thinking about the role of AI in higher ed—especially in the Humanities. I run a YouTube channel called AI for the Humanities, where I explore how generative AI is changing the way we teach, research, and create—and how humanistic thinking can help us better understand and shape this technology. The channel includes practical demos of AI tools (LLMs, image/video/song generators, etc.) and how I use them in my own classes for writing support, creative assignments, and classroom activities. I also post regular news roundups…

Educators experimenting with AI often find that looking at others’ prompts helps us learn prompting strategies and get ideas for ways we may want to invite students to use AI. This workshop examines examples of educational prompt development, focusing on two cases: Mike Caulfield’s SIFT Toolbox, which incorporates critical thinking principles into AI prompts, and the PAIRR feedback prompt developed by California educators to support linguistic justice and student agency in writing. These examples illustrate how strategies like role assignments, step-by-step reasoning, examples, and conditional statements can help us nudge AI to respond in ways consistent with our pedagogical goals…

Glad to share this collection of Open Educational Resources (OERs) from the City University of New York’s Building Bridges of Knowledge 2024-2025 Initiative. The OERs were all developed by faculty, piloted in the classroom, and refined based on student and peer feedback. As in our AI in Education community, there are many academic disciplines represented. They are grouped into: Education, Health, Humanities, Social Sciences, and STEM. The OERs themselves vary quite a bit (e.g. lesson plans, assignments, coding tutorials), which speaks to how much they are based on each discipline’s specific needs, challenges, and pedagogical methods.
