"AI can do this. Why am I asking them to do this?” "We've lost these opportunities where students fail and then learn through failure" In this 34th episode of The Opposite of Cheating Podcast, Tricia sits down with Torrey Trust, professor of learning technology at UMass Amherst, to explore how Generative AI is reshaping how students learn and how educators teach.
Torrey shares insights from her popular courses on edtech and digital tools, her pioneering seminar “AI for College Success,” and her research-based “TRUST Model” for teaching and learning. She reflects on academic integrity from her own student days, expresses concern about AI’s emotional manipulation, and champions new assignment designs that prioritize transparency, real-world relevance, and process over product.
