Sinopse:
Educators facing the ChatGPT shift need more than slogans, and this book answers that need with a clear arc that begins with an introduction to AI in higher education, then moves into AI literacy, curriculum design, assessment redesign, and policy. The table of contents shows a deliberate progression from understanding the technology to changing how teaching and learning are actually organized, which makes the book especially useful for readers who need practical direction, not just commentary. The chapters cover the strengths and weaknesses of ChatGPT in curriculum design, the evolution of assessment in the GenAI era, AI assessment integration frameworks, and the design of institutional AI policy. Later sections turn to the technology behind GenAI itself, including the history of neural networks, model training, fine-tuning, deployment, and the surrounding ecosystem of interfaces, APIs, plugins, and agents. That mix of pedagogy, governance, and technical grounding gives the book a wide and unusual reach. Written by Cecilia Ka Yuk Chan and Tom Colloton, the book brings an interdisciplinary voice to a fast-moving topic, combining educational research, policy thinking, and hands-on examples. Readers get a guide that is accessible enough for practitioners yet substantial enough for scholars and leaders who need to shape responsible AI use across classrooms, institutions, and assessment systems.
