UC Davis GenAI Student Survey
During the 2024 Winter Quarter, the Center for Educational Effectiveness surveyed all undergraduate students (N= ~31,000) about their perceptions, uses, and future value of Generative AI (GenAI). Key takeaways include the majority of students: a) deeply consider the ethics of using GenAI for academic work; b) believe GenAI is important to work after college; c) cautious in trusting the accuracy of GenAI; d) do not use GenAI frequently. Read the executive summary and full report.
GenAI Library Guide
The GenAI Library Guide is a collaboration between the Center for Educational Effectiveness and the Library. It aims to provide guidance on using AI by linking to key frameworks, best practices, and current research to help users deepen their understanding of this emerging issue. The Teaching and Learning section contains advice for students learning with AI and tools for instructors to develop policies and practices for teaching with AI. The teaching and learning experts in CEE are available to help instructors explore teaching strategies and construct course policies pertaining to Generative AI. Request a consultation to get started.
Suggested Readings
Book-length resources with practical strategies on GenAI can be accessed via the Library (UCD Login required). Titles include: Teaching with AI by José Antonio Bowen and C. Edward Watson and Rethinking Writing Instruction in the Age of AI by Randy Laist.
