Social Annotation in the Age of AI

Cohort 5: March 5-19, 2024

Hypothesis Academy: Social Annotation in the Age of AI is a two-week course designed to teach you how to use Hypothesis social annotation to navigate the challenges and opportunities presented by AI writing tools such as ChatGPT.

By the end of the course, you’ll design the instructions and grading plan for a Hypothesis social annotation activity specifically with AI in mind (this may or may not even use AI outputs).

Learning Goals

1. Reflect on the impact and potential of AI in education, including digital literacy.
2. Analyze how Hypothesis social annotation can be used in teaching and learning as a response to artificial intelligence’s emerging role in education.
3. Evaluate two categories of Hypothesis annotation assignments: assignments which use social annotation alongside AI-produced text, and assignments that encourage engagement with course materials to discourage student use of AI.
4. Set up a Hypothesis-enabled assignment in the appropriate LMS and grade the assignment.
5. Design an activity that uses social annotation with Hypothesis.

Online Course Developers Workshop

The Online Course Developers Workshop is open to all faculty and instructional staff at UW-Parkside. The 2023 OCDW will be fully online, asynchronous, and self-paced.

The goal of the workshop is for each participant to produce a fully online course that will be taught at some point during the next academic year.

There are two stipends associated with the workshop. The first $1,500 stipend is earned for successful completion of the workshop components and the creation of an online course for Parkside. The second $1,500 is earned when the course passes an in-house, modified Quality Matters review and is deemed ready to be taught online.

New faculty and/or interested academic staff are encouraged to apply as they see fit.

To apply for the workshop, please submit the following to lawlerm@uwp.edu:

1. a one-page summary of the course you plan to develop in the workshop and any experience you have with teaching online already
2. a letter of support from your department chair
