CWP Faculty Workshop: A Practical Introduction to ChatGPT through Prompt Engineering

Unless regulators step in (ha!), we are soon likely to see large language models embedded into search, word processing, spreadsheets, presentation software, and even course management systems. This workshop will provide an opportunity for faculty to come together and learn how to coax various kinds of functionality from language models by interacting with them through text (aka prompt engineering). We will also be collectively testing them for accuracy. Materials needed: We strongly recommend that faculty register for a premium ChatGPT account that will provide fast access to the latest models. It will cost $20 for a month of testing (CWP should be able to reimburse a limited number of faculty for this cost). Faculty might also bring: 1) writing assignments from their courses; 2) sample exam questions from introductory courses they have taught; 3) a PDF of a scholarly article that the faculty member is intimately familiar with. We will run the workshop face to face in Pardee Hall room 319, and the same workshop will be offered on consecutive days to accommodate people's schedule.
