With artificial intelligence on the rise, teaching staff at many universities are taking a hard look at how they teach and assess their students. Carleton University Religion Professor Shawna Dolansky talks about why she's banned all technology from her classrooms. McMaster University Physical Engineering Professor Mike Welland discusses how he's integrating AI into his teaching. And Samuel Madden, the co-chair of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Ad Hoc Committee on AI Use in Teaching, Learning and Research Training, talks about their report into AI leading to "cognitive surrender" among students.
