Berdanier, Michael Alley","doi":"10.1002/jee.20541","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/jee.20541","url":null,"abstract":"ChatGPT has revolutionized conversations around writing since its release in November 2022. Faculty wonder how artificial intelligence (AI) such as ChatGPT will revolutionize higher education, where writing is a key competency and where our careers are built on our ability to productively publish. Perhaps you are intrigued, distressed, or horrified by AI; perhaps you are worried about how engineering writing should now be taught; or perhaps you want to arm yourself with messaging for your students when they ask why they even have to learn to write. We have no idea how AI will replace or modify the ecosystem of higher education and knowledge creation, or how ChatGPT will be embedded in the disciplinary norms of the future; some of those ideas are described in the guest editorials by Johri et al. and Menekse et al. in this issue. Many faculty may wonder whether the ability to self-generate text will go the way of the slide rule—becoming a quaint relic of the past. In this guest editorial, we conceptualize the “teaching of engineering writing” as the activities that happen both in undergraduate and graduate classrooms and informally in research relationships—wherever students learn to write authentically for disciplinary audiences. Historically, a reason for teaching engineering writing is to prepare our future engineering workforce to communicate their ideas with each other, to users, and to the public. Most faculty hope that our students would pursue meaningful and high-impact positions in industries that are at the forefront of technology. If our undergraduate and graduate students are to work in transformative areas, we need to arm them with the ability to communicate the value of novel ideas in the face of dominant narratives and pre-existing knowledge. Further, we find it difficult to believe that industries with high profit potential, technological advancement, or secure information will encourage the upload of queries or protected information into online AI tools.

For example, Google Bard and OpenAI ChatGPT are LLMs that can generate natural language texts for various purposes, such as summaries of research papers (e.g., OpenAI, 2023). At the same time, Midjourney and DeepBrain AI are diffusion models that can create diagrams (e.g., concept maps), images, and videos from textual or visual inputs. Engineering education, in particular, can benefit from integrating and utilizing generative AI technologies to improve instructional resources, develop new technology-enhanced learning environments, reduce instructors' workloads, and provide students with opportunities to design and develop their learning experiences. These technologies can help educators to create more personalized, effective, and engaging learning experiences for engineering students. Most engineering students struggle to acquire a deep understanding of complex engineering concepts because of the nature of the highly mathematical concepts, lack of prior knowledge, limitations of the large lectures, limited resources that prevent the use of commercially available lab equipment, and the lack of innovative teaching tools that could be utilized to enhance learning experiences (e.g., Menekse et al., 2018, 2022; Miller et al., 2011; Reeves & Crippen, 2021; Streveler & Menekse, 2017).
