Strategy · All strategies
Evidence · no claims cited

Description¶

The article offers a seven-step implementation recipe for professional writing courses: incorporate a PAIRR overview and AI guidelines in syllabi; assign short instructor-chosen readings about AI (ethics, bias, linguistic justice, LLM design, privacy, acknowledging AI use); require a reflection and class discussion on those readings; require peer review of drafts using assignment-specific criteria such as a checklist or rubric; choose a chatbot and guide students in protecting data and privacy; guide students to prompt the chatbot for feedback with a supportive peer reviewer role and assignment-specific criteria; and require students to reflect on and compare peer and AI feedback, consider what advice to take, and develop a revision plan, with reminders that "chatbots can make mistakes."

Design Implications¶
