The approach of these assignments and discussions is to embrace the use of AI because it\u2019s a powerful tool that is here to stay. In a study of over 750 Boston Consulting Group (BCG) consultants, the results indicated that using OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT-4 for ideation and content creation improved 90% of participants\u2019 performance by an average of 40% compared to those who did not use AI. The degree of improvement with the use of AI was greater for lower performing participants than higher performing ones. In contrast, use of AI for complex problem solving resulted in poorer performance compared to human-only output.<a id=\"return-footnote-1570-1\" class=\"footnote\" title=\"Dell'Acqua, Fabrizio and McFowland, Edward and Mollick, Ethan R. and Lifshitz-Assaf, Hila and Kellogg, Katherine and Rajendran, Saran and Krayer, Lisa and Candelon, Fran\u00e7ois and Lakhani, Karim R., Navigating the Jagged Technological Frontier: Field Experimental Evidence of the Effects of AI on Knowledge Worker Productivity and Quality (September 15, 2023).

For this reason, the essay assignments are listed here and can be moved into the appropriate places within the LMS.\r\n\r\nThe different rhetorical style essays are each split into at least two parts, with one for prewriting and one for the final draft. They could also be combined into one assignment or split into several smaller assignments; for example, you could divide each essay into a prewriting, drafting, and final draft stage (which is how the argument essay is currently organized).\r\n\r\nNote that:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>The optional \u201cEssay Reflection\u201d Assignment can also be paired with any of the rhetorical style essays.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The \u201cWriting Process\u2014Revising and Proofreading\u201d module also includes a discussion assignment that has students peer review whichever essay is assigned during that module (Discussion: CARES Peer Review).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<table style=\"width: 100%;

The approach of these assignments and discussions is to embrace the use of AI because it\u2019s a powerful tool that is here to stay. In a study of over 750 Boston Consulting Group (BCG) consultants, the results indicated that using OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT-4 for ideation and content creation improved 90% of participants\u2019 performance by an average of 40% compared to those who did not use AI. The degree of improvement with the use of AI was greater for lower performing participants than higher performing ones. In contrast, use of AI for complex problem solving resulted in poorer performance compared to human-only output.<a id=\"return-footnote-1570-1\" class=\"footnote\" title=\"Dell'Acqua, Fabrizio and McFowland, Edward and Mollick, Ethan R. and Lifshitz-Assaf, Hila and Kellogg, Katherine and Rajendran, Saran and Krayer, Lisa and Candelon, Fran\u00e7ois and Lakhani, Karim R., Navigating the Jagged Technological Frontier: Field Experimental Evidence of the Effects of AI on Knowledge Worker Productivity and Quality (September 15, 2023).
