As the “guest” throughout the episode, Whisper provides insights and perspectives on incorporating AI into teaching.Jared and Rob ask Whisper for practical strategies that teachers can integrate into their teaching practices. Whisper suggests starting with a small, manageable application and familiarizing yourself with Chat GPT's capabilities and limitations. Instructors can experiment with having Chat GPT perform various tasks such as generating quiz questions, explaining complex concepts, or providing supplementary explanations. Whisper also highlights the learning curve involved in integrating new technologies. If instructors encounter struggles or hesitations in their experience with using generative AI in their teaching, Whisper suggests reflecting on what didn't work and making small tweaks or seeking advice from peers.ResourcesWhisper
