About

A Community Collection of Teaching Reflections

As AI evolves, educators are experimenting with ways to teach about it and use it in the classroom. This crowdsourced space allows for timely reflections on our experiments in a spirit of open, collaborative inquiry. 

Have you tried something in your classroom related to AI that excited or disappointed you? Is there a classroom activity that has made you hopeful about the future of AI in higher ed? Maybe you tried out a pedagogical practice that you heard about from a colleague and have some reflections to offer? On this site, you can share your pedagogical experiences with colleagues and reflect on successes, failures, and results that leave us perplexed.

Statement of Editorial Policy

Given the pace of AI development, we want to encourage teachers to consider putting ideas out there quickly. You don’t need to wait until you are sure you have a model for the world to follow or until all your questions and doubts are resolved. We offer this space in the spirit of the informal discussions between teachers in break rooms where we share an earnestness and goodwill, a desire to share practical, frank reflections to help each other better reach students and continuously improve our pedagogy.

Resources on the site are not peer reviewed by the task force before posting. In some cases, they may reflect on and link to peer-reviewed materials published elsewhere. We are thus joining a rich, collaborative ecosystem of spaces for sharing ideas for teaching about and with AI like TextGenEd, AIPedagogy.org, and LearnwithAI.org. Here, we encourage you to use the site’s commenting function to give supportive feedback to each other after publication in order to continue the conversation about this evolving issue.

When submitting a resource, you will grant the MLA, on behalf of the MLA-CCCC AI Task Force, the right to post it for you in compliance with the Humanities Commons terms of use. You retain copyright and all rights inherent therein, including the ability to publish it elsewhere. The MLA’s posting of resources does not mean that the MLA endorses or adopts it, and it has no obligation to  prescreen, monitor, modify, supplement, or delete posts or comments, but may do so at any time without notice.

About the Task Force

The MLA-CCCC Joint Task Force on Writing and AI was established to address pedagogical needs related to generative AI. Since being formed, the task force has sent out a survey to its constituents, published a resource guide, released a working paper on the risks and benefits of generative AI, and hosted a number of public information forums for educators in the disciplines of English, composition, modern languages, and digital humanities. The goal of our work is to help educators, administrators, and policymakers support the development of critical AI literacy.

We are happy to answer any questions you have, and we welcome submissions and feedback on the project.
