Editing AI-Generated Text for Accuracy and Completeness

Jen Talbot

Abstract

This assignment, developed for a fall 2023 section of an upper-division undergraduate editing course, asks students to perform a comprehensive edit of a ChatGPT-generated text. The highest stated priorities for the assigned edit were factual accuracy, rhetorical appropriateness, and completeness in relation to user need. Overall, the project successfully developed and assessed the desired learning outcomes, and served as an introduction to generative AI for students whose experience with it was limited.
