It is unquestionable that AI is a dynamically rising trend in education. The need for faculty and staff to be AI literate is vital, not only to use AI effectively but also to guide students in its responsible and meaningful application. The library role is fundamental in supporting and educating the communities within an educational institution. The Anatolia Libraries in an effort to succeed in this goal has curated a LibGuide on AI.
In this LibGuide, other than the basic information about AI and its generative tools, how they are applicable in education, prompt design and how to cite AI generated outcomes (using different styles) are presented. The AC and ACT AI policies are also included in this guide, as well as guidelines from the IBO. Some ethical concerns about the use of AI in education are also discussed. Additionally, this guide presents some tools and Apps that can be used in everyday life.
The research, preparation and implementation of the guide was a collaborative effort of the academic and high school Anatolia Libraries. Each librarian offered their expertise in every step. The learning benefits of this presentation will be guidance via a structured environment where instructors and librarians can learn about AI. The content is presented in the form of educational material in order for one to identify their learning needs. This guide aims to start an institutional discussion and become an institutional platform to share content on AI.
This presentation aims to reflect in the process, the difficulties encountered, the reasoning behind selecting these categories and material. It will also showcase the guide, welcoming participant feedback, and discussing its potential use on campus and beyond.
