Real Talk About AI on Campus

Description:

Throughout 2025, media outlets such as the New York Times and the New Yorker have published tell-all accounts of college students who outsource reading and writing assignments to AI, as well as professors who use AI tools to create course materials and grade student work. These provocative articles, while eye-opening, stoke distrust between students and instructors. This workshop generated a different kind of conversation about AI, one that centered our reality at Wake Forest and was driven by curiosity and a desire to understand our students’ experiences as pioneers in an educational landscape being remade by generative AI.
