I added a first attempt at a 2-sided handout on Adapting Your #Teaching to #ChatGPT & Similar #AI Tools: bit.ly/teachchatgpt
based on this longer post: edtechdev.wordpress.com/2023/0
The 2nd page has some potential do's and don'ts for instructors.

Great - this is a very practical synopsis. I have one suggestion though: as I explain in more depth here ... sentientsyllabus.substack.com/ ... there is a risk of starting out with a prompt: you are giving up the precious opportunity of a "first-thought", an unbiased engagement with the topic that prepares the mind. Thus I would ask students to first think for themselves, perhaps write down a few bullet points, and then prompt ChatGPT. The algorithm sounds very authoritative, and it takes quite a bit of effort to see its arguments clearly, to sort them by importance and relevance, and to check their logical connections.

You want to avoid them to get locked-in to the generated text's way of seeing thing.

So: "Do start all engagements with thinking for yourself."
