Most Houston-area colleges are leaving it up to faculty members to decide how they handle Chat GPT in their classrooms.
Rice University faculty and students recede from the Academic Quadrangle at the conclusion of the investiture ceremony of the university’s eighth president, Reginald DesRoches, on Saturday, October 22, 2022 in Houston, Texas.Several Houston-area higher education institutions are cautiously embracing ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence, despite concerns that the technology will facilitate plagiarism and thwart student learning.
While AI has existed in various forms for decades, the advent of ChatGPT seemed to arrive quickly and without a manual for higher education institutions. Online think-pieces proliferated – one December article in The Atlantic boldly declared “The College Essay is Dead” – and administrators and professors convened to start tackling the issue.
“New technologies don’t make honest students into cheaters,” Messmer said. “What we need to be doing is what we should have always been doing. If we believe writing is important, we need to have assignments that illustrate to them why writing is important.” Universities and colleges are having ongoing conversations about the classroom response to AI, which officials said they expect will evolve. At UH, the “ChatGPT User Group” is a working group open to any faculty member at the university. Rice has held several panels on the issue.
Lone Star College Chancellor Stephen Head said his institutions are prepared to use plagiarism checkers as they’re put in use for ChatGPT. The community college enrolls a large number of students online, meaning cheating while test-taking might be more of an issue than it would be on a campus.Former Prairie View president Ruth Simmons blasts Texas A&M system over its handling of the HBCU
“Writing is, in itself, a form of instruction,” Messmer said. “If you’re not going through the process, you’re going to miss out on a good learning opportunity.”
