Gen AI in LTA

Since the launch of ChatGPT and the subsequent surge in Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) technology, the higher education sector has been impacted significantly, with efforts to develop policies, strategies, and guidelines to support staff and students in navigating the changing landscape. While these technologies offer great potential for enhancing learning experiences, they also pose significant challenges to academic integrity. Traditional assessment methods, such as essays, unsupervised open-book or remote exams, and online quizzes, are increasingly vulnerable, as students can access AI tools to produce content that appears to be original but is not their own work.  

The TLC offers support through interactive workshops designed to provide participants with a collaborative platform to explore the capabilities and limitations of GenAI. These workshops are available upon request across all ATU campuses. They attract significant participation, fostering an environment for collaboration and the exchange of ideas and knowledge regarding GenAI tools. The workshops particularly focus on advancing AI literacy, emphasising its importance as a critical skill in the evolving educational landscape. To request a workshop, please contact TLC@atu.ie.
