ChatGPT, Bard, and other conversational AI tools can be used in countless ways in your online course. Here are a few suggestions you can incorporate to promote a quality student experience:

“Peer” Review for Feedback:
- Students can use ChatGPT as a sounding board and mechanism for feedback by asking the tool to pose as a peer in the course to provide feedback on an assessment draft.
Workforce Relevance:
- Students can utilize ChatGPT to research job descriptions, industry trends, and resume feedback on workforce-relevant assessments.
