Ithaka S+R Spearheads Research Project on AI in Higher Education
Danielle Miriam Cooper, Dylan Ruediger, and Roger C. Schonfeld write the following in “Making AI Generative for Higher Education” for Ithaka S+R:The ability of computers to create original content is advancing rapidly, spurring an investment arms race within the technology sector. As these advancements touch every area of higher education, universities face decisions about how and when AI can support student learning and faculty research. This fall, Ithaka S+R is convening a two-year research project in collaboration with a select group of universities committed to making AI generative for their campus community. Together we will assess the immediate and emerging AI applications most likely to impact teaching, learning, and research activities and explore the needs of institutions, instructors, and scholars as they navigate this environment. We will use our findings to create new strategies, policies, and programs to ensure on-campus readiness to harness the technology in the longer term. … Making AI Generative for Higher Education will launch in Fall 2023. If your institution is interested in participating, please send an immediate expression of interest to Danielle Cooper (danielle.cooper@ithaka.org). For more information, read the blog post.
