This book is a veritable lifeline to those of us navigating the turbulent waters of AI in the postsecondary classroom, provided we are willing to take seriously the need to revisit our assumptions about both what constitutes learning as well as the value and purpose of college teaching.

This book is fantastic! Bowen and Watson deftly combine explanations of complex issues surrounding student use of AI, suggestions for integrating AI effectively into a wide range of teaching and learning situations, and examples of actual prompts to enhance the effectiveness of AI. This is so good I kept telling myself just a few more pages, until I had read nearly the entire book in one sitting.
