Basic prompting for educators: 12-min YouTube video for faculty. “If you’re an educator experimenting with tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude but not getting great results, the problem isn’t the tool-or whether you’re using the free version or the paid version —it’s your prompts. In this video, you’ll learn how to create robust prompts using a simple but powerful framework. You will also see real examples for teaching, assignment design and more. Plus I will share practical tips to avoid common mistakes and show you how to iterate your way to better AI responses. No coding or tech background required – just your educator mindset.”

Taking a mosaic approach to AI in the writing classroom: 40-min YouTube video. “In the last few years many tools have quickly emerged that can successfully complete many traditional assessments and a number of AI detection tools quickly followed in an attempt to solve this problem. Unfortunately these tools are imperfect, at best, but they still have a use. In this talk, Assistant Teaching Professor and Learning/AI Strategist Chris Ostro will detail the ways he has leveraged these tools, along with others, in a “mosaic approach” to help safeguard integrity in his course, but more importantly to get us all past the “cops and robbers” phase and back to the student/teacher dynamic.” [Additional documents on the mosaic approach]
