Posted on

UFIT is continuing its online Tech Byte cooking shows this summer! Instructional designer Leslie Mojeiko and educational technologist Chris Sharp are back in the test kitchen. Or shall we say…tech kitchen!

Wednesday, July 26
2:30-3:30pm

Join UFIT’s Center for Instructional Technology & Training (CITT) for a fun, free event to learn generative AI “recipes” to enhance course design and teaching. Leslie and Chris will share tips for writing effective prompts for ChatGPT and AI image generators, and suggest ways how generative AI can help make class prep and assignment design more efficient. This one-hour cooking show includes demonstrations of AI in action. Register today and prepare to gather recipes for course preparation. You’ll leave this Tech Byte with your very own ‘cookbook’ to get started with “prompt engineering!”

ChatGPT: Guidelines for Campus Usage

Posted on

Responses provided by the ChatGPT application can save time, but beware: the data you input or ask the app to develop may be retained and provided as responses to other users. ChatGPT users have very limited control over its use of the data provided to the app, and its parent company–OpenAI–does not currently offer a process to amend or delete entries submitted. UF’s Privacy Office and the UF Information Security Office want everyone in the Gator community to understand that putting data into ChatGPT or a similar service is equivalent to disclosing the data to the public.

ChatGPT is currently being assessed for regulatory concerns related to privacy and confidentiality of data. University of Florida data classified as sensitive or restricted is not approved for use with ChatGPT. Sensitive and restricted data includes:

• Social Security Numbers
• Education Records
• Employee Data
• Credit Card Numbers
• Protected Health Information
• Human Subject Research Data
• Unpublished Research Data
• Personally Identifiable Information

An assessment of ChatGPT has been added to the university’s technology solutions website: https://irm.ufl.edu/fast-path-solutions/items/chatgpt.html. Remember that all faculty, staff, and students share the responsibility of keeping UF information secure. Visit the Office of Privacy website for additional information on using ChatGPT.
