Leveraging Generative AI for Teaching Programming Courses

Viraj Kumar, Visiting Professor, KIAC

September–October 2023

Current and prospective Computer Science faculty registered for this workshop. Among these participants, 63 participated actively enough to earn certificates. At a high level, this workshop was similar to the training session for the Delhi Public School Society school teachers. However, since this was targeted at college faculty, it was substantially more in-depth. Further, it provided faculty with hands-on exposure to a new style of code-writing problems that cannot be solved by merely copy-pasting solutions produced by Generative AI tools. The workshop provided faculty with both the student perspective (solving these problems) and the faculty perspective (evaluating student solutions).
