How AI May Change Student Engagement

Zoom_VF_ChroniclePage_NEW_How_AI_May_Change_VF.png

Generative AI tools are used widely across campuses. Nonetheless, 71 percent of faculty members said their institutions have not issued guidelines for using generative AI or virtual teaching assistants to communicate with students, and many report dissatisfaction with virtual TAs, according to a recent survey by The Chronicle.

The fast-changing nature of these technologies presents challenges for faculty and staff. Ethics remains an issue, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to AI adoption, as different institutions have different needs and aptitudes for these technologies.

Watch the on-demand Virtual Forum from November 13 at 2 p.m. ET. During this event, panelists shared their experiences and insights on the intersection of AI and student engagement, as well as discuss the findings from our latest survey on the topic.

Learn more about:

  • How faculty and staff use AI to streamline communications
  • What ways generative AI tools can support student engagement
  • What roles chatbots play in the classroom and at the institutional level
  • How colleges are deploying AI to tackle core functions

With Support From Zoom.
