[ISL-FY24-OERGrant] [Ext] Using AI in OER Creation

[Stephanie Fletcher]

Dear Larissa,

I'm so glad you brought this up. Our accessibility expert is interested in
writing alt text/captions using ChatGPT. The library does not necessarily
support or recommend using AI, although the university does have a policy
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.iit.edu/sites/default/files/2023-08/Faculty*20Guide*20on*20Teaching*20and*20Generative*20AI.pdf__;JSUlJSUl!!DZ3fjg!-IpUra890hnJR7G2h17qF5KviS_q8BkrL5FS-eutgHYNA6xhKdG4hr8MuHIbwHwNrda6mNQ1l2mgQCR30m6VMOTb-dfmf8sb6f6a$ >
that gives faculty some guidance on how to integrate AI into coursework
(linked from a faculty resources page
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.iit.edu/cli/faculty-resources__;!!DZ3fjg!-IpUra890hnJR7G2h17qF5KviS_q8BkrL5FS-eutgHYNA6xhKdG4hr8MuHIbwHwNrda6mNQ1l2mgQCR30m6VMOTb-dfmf0uXRUSJ$ > published by our Center for
Learning Innovation). That is to say, I will also be spending some time
talking to my dean, the Center for Learning Innovation, and our authors
about whether we want to use ChatGPT or do the alt text ourselves. I can
keep the listserv updated - those conversations will start in January. I'll
look forward to hearing what you do at NIU, too.

Best,
Stephanie
