Connect with our guest: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mkassorla/ Takeaways Teaching AI literacy is crucial in higher education to help students understand the limitations and biases of AI models. AI can be used to support the writing process by providing feedback on grammar and punctuation, generating topic ideas, and assisting with research. Assessment should focus on voice, tone, audience, transparency, and accuracy rather than traditional grammar and punctuation. AI can free up time for teachers to focus on higher-order thinking skills and creative aspects of writing. Developing AI literacy standards for higher education can help guide educators in teaching AI effectively. Thank you to our amazing show sponsor! Lebra https://www.lebrahq.com/
