S3 E3: The role of generative AI in student writing - An instructor panel discussion

This special episode of AI Dialogues features a recently recorded Instructor Panel at McMaster University. The panel was moderated by Ben Lee Taylor, the Academic Skills Program Coordinator with the Student Success Centre, and brings together the following panelists who engages in writing instruction and support for students:

• Dr. Jonathan Cannon, Assistant Professor, Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour.
• Dr. Ayesha Khan, Associate Professor, Psychology, Neuroscience & Behavior.
• Dr. Mayu Nishimura. Assistant Professor, Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour.
• Siddharth Raman, PhD candidate, Department of Philosophy; Writing Advisor, Student Success Centre.

Towards the end of the recording, I pose a question to the panel that challenges the commonly held assumption that using GenAI involves outsourcing your thinking to talk about whether these tools could potentially support the writing and thinking process.
