This book was released on 2024-01-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive study looks at who, how, and how often higher education faculty are using artificial intelligence applications to search for, cite and summarize information. The study provides highly distinct data sets for each of these purposes, and focuses on the precise use of specific applications, with separate data for the use of ChatGPT, Bard, Bing and other applications. The study enables its readers to find out exactly how higher education faculty are using AI and what their experience has been. For librarians focusing on information literacy and search strategy, it provides a highly detailed map of faculty experience with AI as a supplement to, or even a replacement of, traditional search engines and library search interfaces. This detailed report enables its readers to find out exactly how AI is beginning to reshape information and scholarly searching.Data in the report is based on a representative survey of 777 higher education faculty; data is broken out by a range of personal and institutional variables, including but not limited to personal characteristics such as work title, academic field, gender, personal income, and race/ethnicity, and institutional attributes such as Carnegie class, public/private status, and enrollment.Just a few of this 133-page report's many findings are that: ¿Department heads are more likely than other faculty to experiment with developing proper citations from AI searches.¿Untenured faculty who are on a tenure track are also much more likely than others to adjust their prompts to request specific sourcing information from AI applications.¿The majority of respondents (63.19%) expressed little to no confidence in the accuracy of sourcing and citation information from AI applications.¿Males were twice as likely as females to use AI to recommend journals to which to submit research articles.¿ChatGPT use was highest among faculty in architecture, fine and visual arts.

Book The Fall of the Faculty

Download or read book The Fall of the Faculty written by Benjamin Ginsberg and published by OUP USA. This book was released on 2011-08-12 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until very recently, American universities were led mainly by their faculties, which viewed intellectual production and pedagogy as the core missions of higher education. Today, as Benjamin Ginsberg warns in this eye-opening, controversial book, "deanlets"--administrators and staffers often without serious academic backgrounds or experience--are setting the educational agenda.The Fall of the Faculty examines the fallout of rampant administrative blight that now plagues the nation's universities. In the past decade, universities have added layers of administrators and staffers to their payrolls every year even while laying off full-time faculty in increasing numbers--ostensibly because of budget cuts. In a further irony, many of the newly minted--and non-academic--administrators are career managers who downplay the importance of teaching and research, as evidenced by their tireless advocacy for a banal "life skills" curriculum. Consequently, students are denied a more enriching educational experience--one defined by intellectual rigor. Ginsberg also reveals how the legitimate grievances of minority groups and liberal activists, which were traditionally championed by faculty members, have, in the hands of administrators, been reduced to chess pieces in a game of power politics. By embracing initiatives such as affirmative action, the administration gained favor with these groups and legitimized a thinly cloaked gambit to bolster their power over the faculty.As troubling as this trend has become, there are ways to reverse it. The Fall of the Faculty outlines how we can revamp the system so that real educators can regain their voice in curriculum policy.
