Learning Objectives
- Part 1: As part of your required coursework, you will be using AI to augment your own writing. We will also be learning AI prompting with LLMs such as ChatGPT. As you receive the output from the prompts, you will be completing rhetorical analyses to see if you can identify any patterns in the language being used by the LLMs to return output. It is this rhetorical analysis information that I am interested in using to see if we are able to identify any patterns in the LLM output on a larger scale.
- Part 2: Use post-reflections to reflect on what you learned from working with LLMs and output, as well as what they what you learned about having LLMs help with your writing tasks.
Strategy Description
Students are asked to work in teams to look at the output from an LLM and to identify patterns in how language is used and information is being presented.
