Using ChatGPT for Conferencing and Feedback
I've used conferencing for years as my main form of feedback and assessment. I stopped collecting piles of books, stopped writing margin notes that no-one ever read, and stopped correcting work like a human spell-checker. Aside from the hours of time saved by not "correcting" work, I also built stronger relationships with students as a result of regularly sitting with them 1:1 to go through their work. At the moment, ChatGPT has been banned by the Department of Education in most states […]https://leonfurze.com/2023/02/08/using-chatgpt-for-conferencing-and-feedback/

Teaching Writing in the Age of AI: Talking About Academic Integrity
This is the second post in a series about Teaching Writing in the Age of AI. In the first post, I wrote broadly about academic integrity and how to create assignments which can work with and in opposition to AI like ChatGPT. In this video post, I discuss how to talk about academic integrity with your students. https://videopress.com/v/vzbU1IIo?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true I've turned my previous post - Practical Strategies for ChatGPT in […]https://leonfurze.com/2023/02/07/teaching-writing-in-the-age-of-ai-talking-about-academic-integrity/

Teaching Writing in the Age of AI
With Victoria the latest state to ban ChatGPT, teachers everywhere are grappling with the implications of the large language model and the impact it will have on the classroom. We know that banning and blocking technology is - at best - a temporary solution. Students will find ways around the blocks, and teachers will be faced with policing the technology and its use. Aside from the "cheating narrative", many teachers are also very hopeful of how the technology could be integrated into their […]https://leonfurze.com/2023/02/06/teaching-writing-in-the-age-of-ai/

Creative but critical: How educators can learn to live with AI
December 2022 represented a step-change in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies. With the release of OpenAI’s ChatGPT, suddenly the whole world (or at least the millions of users who logged in within a week of its launch) were talking about Large Language Models. LLMs represent just a portion of AI technologies, but ChatGPT shifted the public narrative in ways we hadn’t seen before, even with impressive image generation applications like DALL-E 2 and Midjourney. LLMs are a form of […]https://leonfurze.com/2023/01/29/creative-but-critical-how-educators-can-learn-to-live-with-ai/

Practical Strategies for ChatGPT in education
ChatGPT isn't the first AI language model, but it's definitely the one that has taken AI mainstream. Beyond the media hype about cheating, there are some very practical uses for these new technologies for teachers. This post covers six areas where teachers could use ChatGPT with examples of the kinds of prompt you can use to get the best results: Planning Refreshing Improvising Personalising Collaborating Communicating If you're looking for a post on the basics of AI, language models, […]https://leonfurze.com/2023/01/23/practical-strategies-for-chatgpt-in-education/

Beyond Cheating: Why the ban and block narrative hides the real threats of ChatGPT in education
If you’re not familiar with this technology and you’d like to understand the basics about AI, large language models, and ChatGPT, then check out this post first. This post is part of a series exploring ways we could (and ways we shouldn't) bring large language models like ChatGPT into education.

Ondertussen heeft iedereen en zijn moeder een mening over ChatGPT.
Ook Nick Cave. Die blijkbaar geregeld songteksten opgestuurd krijgt ‘in de stijl van Nick Cave’.
Wat me behoorlijk vervelend lijkt als je Nick Cave heet.
Nou, is Nick Cave goed benaderbaar want hij heeft een populaire vraag-en-antwoord blog ❤ The Red Hand Files. Er daar werd hem om commentaar gevraagd naar zo’n door […]

Beyond Efficiency: AI can be more than just “Edtech 2.0”
Since OpenAI's ChatGPT launched in December, there has been plenty of speculation about the implications for education. Articles ranging from The End of High School English to ChatGPT as a saviour for time-poor teachers have filled people's feeds for the past month. We've seen ChatGPT labelled everything from"mind-blowing", to a threat to the future of writing, and just a "glorified cut and paste". So what's the truth about ChatGPT and the future of AI in education? We don't really know. But […]https://leonfurze.com/2023/01/12/beyond-efficiency-ai-can-be-more-than-just-edtech-2-0/

Met het risico dat dit een soort GPT blog gaat worden, toch wéér een post over GPT. Het is ten slotte de belangrijkste technologische ontwikkeling van de laatste jaren.
Ten minste dat zou je denken, tot dat deze week bekend werd gemaakt dat fusion mogelijk is. We leven in een bijzondere tijd!
Maar terug naar GPT: veel blogs en techsites gaan er over.
Zo kwam ik ook deze blog tegen van […]
https://janvandenberg.blog/feynman-over-de-atoombom/ #AI #ChatGPT #OpenAIIk heb er afgelopen week al meerdere keren over geschreven en het laat me maar niet los.
Ik kan geen techniek bedenken die zo snel onderdeel is geworden van mijn dagelijkse routine. En ik maak me nu al een beetje druk hoe het straks ook al weer zonder moet (het is tenslotte slechts een beta).
Ik gebruik ChatGPT elke dag. Opvallend genoeg niet eens voor alle hippe en opmerkelijke dingen die […]
