Lecture components: active learning methodology in lecturesthat leverages GAI
  1. synthesis of student-provided questions, in real time
  2. open-response quizzes rather than multiple choice
  3. peer-instruction including GAI
  4. Sequential interaction on course prompts







short-cycle adaptive problem sets with real-time feedback





analysis and insights from lab data





interactive student self-assessments. 

For each participating course







capturing and submitting work for evaluation by course staff





automated evaluation of understanding of material, by evaluating answers to questions we provide. 





cooperative learning in a group of 3-4 students plus GPT





try out a non-analytic problem and assess the results.

Course-based viewpoint

  1. Assess our assessments: run midterm and final exams of science courses through GPT-4 and grade the results. Compare to overall student performance. 
  2. Enhance our assessments. Solicit constructive feedback on the exam questions we submit. 
  3. Assess our homework: run homework assignments through GPT-4 and grade the results. Compare to overall student performance. 
  4. Enhance our assignments. Solicit constructive feedback on the homework we submit. 
  5. Ask (require?) students to use GPT-4 on selected assignments to get feedback and examples of how it can be used. 
  6. Course-specific chat-bots- what training data? 
  7. For large lecture classes- merge active learning with GPT
  8. For sections- aggregation of questions, 
  9. For labs- try out data analysis methods and inference
  10. Customized training assembly of material - what do we need to start to capture?
  11. Advising and course selection
  12. Khan academy
