Co-teaching with ChatGPT

Summary

I will integrate ChatGPT as a co-teacher in my course on information technology history. We'll collaboratively develop the syllabus and class lectures and encourage students to use ChatGPT for course material analysis, creative outputs, and exploring the contexts of technological developments. My Ignite talk will discuss three successful and three less effective strategies for co-teaching with ChatGPT.

Full Abstract

During the Spring 2024 semester, I will integrate ChatGPT as a co-teacher in my graduate course on the history of information technology. Together, we will craft the syllabus, develop the class lectures, and facilitate discussions. I will encourage students to actively engage with ChatGPT, emphasizing the opportunity to explore and understand the course material in ways that best suit their learning styles and interests. The course will use a variety of interactive learning activities with ChatGPT. Students are expected to use the tool to read and analyze the weekly course materials and to create diverse outputs, such as written texts, slide presentations, and visual illustrations. Students will engage with ChatGPT in discussions about the social, political, economic, and philosophical contexts surrounding the emergence of information technologies. They may also opt to construct bibliographic overviews or historiographies, employing ChatGPT to deepen their understanding of these technological developments. Furthermore, students will generate archives of their interactions with ChatGPT, reviewing and possibly annotating these conversations. This process not only aids in consolidating their learning but also serves as a reflective practice, allowing them to critically assess the role of ChatGPT in constructing their learning environment. In this Ignite talk, I will dedicate one minute each to discussing three successful strategies and three that were less effective, providing a balanced view of my experience with ChatGPT as a co-teacher.
