In this podcast, Gea Dreschler, assistant professor of English linguistics and academic director of the Academic Language Programme of the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam talks to guests about Artificial Intelligence and writing skills. Can we still assess students by using written assignments? What skills does a student actually need to write a text? And can we use AI tools to make students better writers? We’ll explore the topic from a range of perspectives.
