Dr. P. Anand Rao is a Professor of Communication and Chair of the Department of Communication and Digital Studies at the University of Mary Washington, where he has established himself as a leading expert on the intersection of artificial intelligence and education. His research focuses on the impact of generative AI technologies on higher education, exploring both the challenges and opportunities they present.
In response to the rapid advancement of AI tools like ChatGPT, Dr. Rao developed a special topics course (DGST 301) in the Fall of 2023, introducing students to low- and no-code options for building their own generative AI applications. This innovative approach aims to prepare students for a future where AI literacy is increasingly crucial across various industries.
Rao’s contributions to the field include co-editing and contributing to the 2023 book Chat(GPT): Navigating the Impact of Generative AI Technologies on Educational Theory and Practice and co-authoring the papers “Beyond Algorithmic Solutions: The Significance of Academic Debate for Learning Assessment and Skill Cultivation in the AI World” (doi: 10.2139/ssrn.4567346) and “Augmented Debate-Centered Instruction: A Novel Research Agenda for Responsible AI Integration in Education,” which was presented at the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence international meeting in February 2024.
