How Can I Leverage ChatGPT to Support Students with Disabilities?
Up to 35%, or one-third of the students in your classroom might have a disability. If we include mental health disorders, this number is closer to 60%. Sometimes these disabilities may be visible, but more often they are invisible. These students also have a two times more likely chance of not finishing their degree, and a three times more likely chance of not being employed later in life.
In this Magna 20-Minute Mentor, Jacqueline Towson, PhD discusses the importance of inclusivity in higher education and the challenges faced by students with disabilities. She explores the use of AI, specifically ChatGPT, to enhance accessibility and support for these students. Finally, she discusses the potential benefits and ethical considerations of integrating AI into teaching practices.
