Preview the book to see the Table of Contents, information about our authors, and the Editors’ Introduction. The volume includes:

Section 1: Understanding Generative AI. This section includes essays on what GAI tools like ChatGPT do, how they work (Stefan Bauschard & Priten Shah), and how to prompt them (Justin Germuyish).

Section 2: The Value of Generative AI in Education. This section covers GAI in society and schools (Dwayne Matthews), GAI & DEI (Dr. Laura Dumin, Laura Gumiyush), GAI & critical thinking (Dr. Alan Coverstone), making students career-ready (Atty. David Coale), and how GAI can support college access opportunities (Coverstone).

Section 3: Use Cases in K-16. 9 chapters include how GAI will impact and could be used in elementary school (Amy Bauschard), grades 6-12 science classrooms (Bonnie Nieves), special education (Dr. Susan Johnson), and higher education (Dr. Anand Rao). This section also includes chapters on in-service teacher training (Char Shryock, Dr. Mara Haslam, Dr. Paula MacDowell, Johnson, A. Bauschard, Coverstone), assessment (Stefan Doyle), use of GAI as a student assistant (Shryock), GAI in the college writing class (Dumin), and a case study of speech and debate (S. Bauschard and Sebastian Rao) that showcases how these technologies can be used to support student research, advocacy, and presentation, not only in academic speech & debate but across the humanities.

Section 4: Policies and Regulations. 3 chapters on acceptable use policies for K-12 (Leon Fruze), higher education (Dumin), and legal scholars (Atty. Ellen Kimatian Eagen & Nick Dugas) tackle an analysis of legal compliance, terms of service, and age-appropriate use.

Section 5: Education Around the World. 8 international educators (Dr. Catriona Moran, Dr. Ratnish Dwivedi, Keith Yi, John Kelly, Tia Paschal, Fruze, and L. Germishuys) discuss how GAI has impacted their educational systems. We also include an anonymous interview with a US public school teacher.

Section 6: The Future of Generative AI, Learning, and Human Cognition. Here educators explore the collaborative opportunities for students and teachers as they use advanced GAI applications, what the development of GAI might mean for the future of reasoning (J. Germishuys), and the role design thinking will play in how we should integrate these new technologies (Dr. Sabba Quidwai).

Section 7: Reflections. 9 essays explore the role of GAI detection tools (Dr. Whitney Gegg-Harrison), the social implications of AI art (Lori Mazor), what AI and civics education mean for each other (Nina Bamberg & Shah), why digital literacy standards should include AI literacy (Gillian Diebold), extending GAI use in critical thinking to work (Dr. Katie Kirby), the role GAI can play in teaching mathematics Coverstone), why we should allow ChatGPT into the classroom, and the challenges of GAI (S.Bauschard),

A call to action for all educators concludes the book (S. Bauschard).
