Quick references for teaching with AI

There is a wealth of information available on generative AI within higher education, but we have purposefully kept this list short to be an effective quick guide for faculty. As research and practice-based use of generative AI continues to evolve, we will curate this short list on a regular basis to reflect significant changes.
