Workshop: Co-Authoring Course Materials with GenAI

Instructors are introduced to Microsoft Copilot Chat, a Generative AI tool within WVU's Office 365 suite. When you sign in using your WVU credentials, information entered into Copilot is protected under our university's Enterprise Data Protection agreement with Microsoft. (Your data will not be used to train Copilot's foundation model.)

We will interact with Copilot by using a series of prompts to coauthor materials that instructors often find to be the most time-consuming to create from scratch, such as grading rubrics containing descriptions at multiple levels of performance and narrative case studies with a background story and characters. Instructors will engage in a back-and-forth conversation with Copilot, requesting changes to be made to the AI’s output. The final step is downloading the course material as a Word file and the instructor puts their finishing touches on their document.
