Workshop: Implications of Artificial Intelligence for Teaching Academic Writing

Part 1

In this workshop, we will explore how AI is changing and challenging academic writing development with a special focus on how teaching practices can be adapted to meet these new challenges. The aims of this workshop are

1) to gain insight in the development of academic writers and the changes that are brought through LLM and AI;

2) to discuss how artificial intelligence is changing the process of writing, researching, reading and revising; and

3) to provide a space to discuss scenarios of teaching AI-supported academic writing.

Disclaimer: This workshop does not provide an introduction to AI-powered tools but rather discusses their use in specific scenarios.

Instructors:

Frano Petar Rismondo & Erika Unterpertinger (University of Vienna)

This is a 2-day workshop. Part 1 will take place on May 17th, part 2 on June 7th.
