ENGL 268 Writing with Artificial Intelligence 6 credits
This course will explore techniques writers can use to create a variety of texts in collaboration with artificial intelligence tools like Bard, Claude, and ChatGPT. We'll examine how to craft an initial prompt for an AI, how to evaluate the AI's output, how to iterate the prompt to produce better results, and when it's more effective to simply revise the AI's writing yourself. We'll also discuss the limits of AI technology and a range of practical and ethical subjects connected to AI, including plagiarism, copyright, and cultural bias. Previous experience with AI tools is not necessary for this course.

IDSC 100.01 Games and Gaming Cultures 6 credits
In this seminar, we will use games (both by studying them and by playing them) as a lens through which we can explore all manner of fascinating questions. How do the games we play shape our culture and our communities? What makes a game fun, engaging, addictive, boring, brutal, or banal? How can games encourage certain kinds of behavior, even after we’ve stopped playing them? Could we make Carleton itself a bit better–or at least more fun–if we gamified certain aspects of life here? To aid our exploration, we’ll draw on readings from multiple genres and employ a variety of research methods to analyze games from social, textual, and design perspectives. This course will also include weekly lab sessions on Wednesday evenings (6:15-8:30PM). Students will be required to attend at least eight out of ten lab sessions.
Held for new first year students. Extra time required for evening meetings
