Student use of AI tools in everyday university life: continuities and changes

Unfortunately, the student perspective is often neglected in the discussion about the use of AI tools at universities. But do students even want to use ChatGPT? What opportunities and risks do they see in the use of generative AI? Last winter, Timucin Cicek, Prof. Dr. Tobias Seidl and Prof. Cornelia Vonhof from Stuttgart Media University published key findings from a student survey on the use of AI tools in the HFD blog post "Hey ChatGPT, can you help me?".

Social check-in for the implementation of online teaching formats

After Tool 2 of the blog series "Student Wellbeing in Digital Studies" addressed ways and tools for ensuring psychosocial safety in the planning and preparation of courses, this blog post focuses on promoting student wellbeing during the delivery of courses. The focus is on synchronous online teaching using video conferencing systems, which is also playing a role at many universities after the coronavirus pandemic. Based on our interviews with students, we present ways in which a good start to an online seminar can be designed, with a focus on promoting appreciative relationships between lecturers and students as well as between students.
