AI for academic writing
I’ve been invited to teach a course on using AI for academic writing at Heidelberg University.
Fundamentally it’s a writing course, and the students will expect to learn to read academic writing as well as write it. They be assessed on their English writing. The course runs From April to August 2026.
It’s the first time I’ve taught anything like this, and may be one of the first times such a thing has been offered. It’s important to me that the students leave not just equiped to use the current generation of LLM tools, but also prepared to learn as the technology develops.
