AI in the Classroom

The emergence of generative AI in late 2022 sparked a firestorm of reactions that have shifted somewhat, but not subsided.

The debates have been particularly intense around the use of these tools in the classroom, where concerns over cheating – and fears about the impact on education itself – co-exist with pressures to innovate.

This collection of articles, opinion pieces, and advice from The Chronicle’s archives provide insights and guidance for campus leaders and faculty members who are wrestling with unprecedented and profound pedagogical questions.
