This curated compilation, titled “Teaching and Generative AI: Pedagogical Possibilities and Productive Tensions,” offers a valuable and practical resource for interdisciplinary educators, librarians, and instructional designers who are navigating the opportunities and challenges of teaching in an AI-driven era. It consists of six chapters such as Framing Concepts, Research Studies, Race and Indigenous Studies, Humanizing Technology, Teaching Resources and Disciplinary Approaches.
The primary objective of this edited collection is to foster nuanced discussions about AI technologies across different academic fields. The chapters collectively address and explore the range of possibilities and tensions associated with teaching in an AI era, encompassing strengths, limitations, ethical considerations, and the potential and challenges specific to various disciplines. The intention is not to offer simplistic praise or criticism of AI but to engage in thoughtful examinations of its complexities within educational contexts.
Throughout the collection, the authors also delve into critical digital pedagogy, drawing inspiration from influential scholars such as Paulo Freire and bell hooks (1994). By incorporating these perspectives, the authors shed light on various forms of critical digital pedagogy, which aims to empower learners and challenge oppressive structures through education.
