Join UWP in celebrating the book launch of Carly Schnitzler, and co-editors Annette Vee and Tim Laquintano’s edited collection on AI and other text generation technologies.

A little about the collection: Generative AI is the most influential technology in writing in decades—nothing since the word processor has promised as much impact. Publicly-accessible Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT have enabled students, teachers, and professional writers to generate writing indirectly, via prompts, and this writing can be calibrated for different audiences, contexts and genres. 

TextGenEd: Teaching With Text Generation Technologies features 34 undergraduate-level assignments to support students’ AI literacy, rhetorical and ethical engagements, creative exploration, and professional writing, along with an Introduction to guide instructors’ understanding and their selection of what to emphasize in their courses.

TextGenEd is now published and is an open-access digital publication on WAC Clearinghouse.

Virtual launch event on Friday, September 29 @ 1PM Eastern. Please RSVP at the link here and share with anyone you think might be interested!

At the event, authors will briefly share their innovative experiments in teaching and, after, will discuss the current state of teaching with text generation technologies, its potential future(s), and our continuing pedagogical experiments. Hear from Bhushan Aryal, Antonio Byrd, Jentery Sayers, Gabriel Egan, Doug Eyman, Jason Crider, Daniel Hutchinson and Erin Jensen, Heidi McKee, Huiling Ding, Mark Marino, and Marc Watkins, and editors Annette Vee, Tim Laquintano, and UWP lecturer Carly Schnitzler.
