University of Iowa
The University of Iowa has developed many resources that continue the conversation surrounding artificial intelligence, generative AI chat tools and higher education. These lists have been adapted by multiple departments across campus, including the Office of Teaching, Learning & Technology, IT Security, Information Technology Services (ITS), the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost, IOWA Magazine, etc.
This is certainly not an exhaustive list, where further resources and services are compiled and changed regularly.
A great starting point is this collection of resources gathered by OTLT's Instructional Services that includes University of Iowa specific articles and services.
