It is SUCH a weird time to be a #writing professor whose background is actually in #ComputationalLinguistics and #CognitiveScience.

SO much being written about LLMs and what they mean for first-year composition and I end up doing a lot of explaining/debunking with colleagues, but they’re not wrong to worry. The collision of these LLMs and students whose pandemic high school years left them underprepared for college is…creating a really complicated environment for these #pedagogy conversations.
