Call for Proposals – Text Gen Ed

CFP: Continuing Experiments in Teaching with Text Generation Technologies

From the start of the CFP:
In August 2023, WAC Clearinghouse published our co-edited collection TextGenEd: Teaching with Text Generation Technologies (Eds. Vee, Laquintano, Schnitzler),a collection of early experiments in pedagogy with generative text technology, including but not limited to AI. The fully open access and peer-reviewed collection features 34 undergraduate-level assignments to support students’ AI literacy, rhetorical and ethical engagements, creative exploration, and professional writing text generation technology, along with an Introduction to guide instructors’ understanding and their selection of what to emphasize in their courses. TextGenEd enables teachers to integrate text generation technologies into their courses and respond to this crucial moment.

In the spirit of those pedagogical experimentations with text gen tech, we invite submissions for writing assignments using a range of text generation technologies (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude.ai, Markov chains, various Python libraries, etc.) to be included in a new, “Continuing Experiments” section of TextGenEd: Teaching with Text Generation Technologies, our way of expanding and updating the original collectionThe work of teaching writing is a constant process of experimentation, revision, and collaboration, particularly when teaching with technologies that shift and evolve quickly . . .
