AT: Deliverables – ShannonWeb

You are responsible for completing the following deliverables this semester.

Engagement

Success in this course will require you to do more than appear in class twice weekly and answer an occasional question. All of my students will be prepared to actively participate in our in-class discussions since that is a crucial way to take as much away from the course as possible. Please review the Engagement Rubric in the Engagement section of this site. Our conversations are ongoing, so you must engage your classmates with commentary, reaction, and/or analysis in class and online. Remember, conversation ” … is a form of interactive, spontaneous communication between two or more people …” generally, ” … written exchanges are usually not referred to as conversations.” The good news is that Teams will allow us to engage in synchronous or asynchronous written exchanges to stand in for conversations.

Prompt Engineering Exercise

Complete this deliverable by posting prompt results to the Prompt Engineering module in Canvas.

We will actively integrate generative GenAI platforms into the course’s creative process. The objectives of this deliverable include understanding the principles of GenAI and its applications, developing content creation skills, enhancing creativity and innovation through AI tools, and reflecting on the impact of AI on the creative process. This deliverable will help you understand how to communicate with AI effectively, recognize the importance of clear and structured prompts, and reflect on the interaction between human input and AI output. The deliverable aims to develop skills in prompt engineering for AI interactions, specifically with ChatGPT. Students will craft the prompts below, engage with GenAI, and reflect on the process and outcomes. All prompts must be related to the course material. This deliverable will enhance your understanding of AI communication and develop your critical thinking and analytical skills. You will prepare the following prompts:

Each student will submit their prompts, ChatGPT responses, and reflections in the Prompt Engineering module in Canvas, following the submission schedule. I will evaluate the clarity and creativity of the prompts, the relevance and depth of the ChatGPT responses, the insightfulness and thoughtfulness of the reflections, and the overall presentation and organization of each prompt submission.

Case Simulation

You will complete this deliverable by posting your memo to the appropriate channel in Teams.

We will complete two case simulations this semester. Links to the materials related to each case simulation are in the Schedule. Each case simulation requires two phases.

The first phase will require you to review certain materials. You will also study a case that examines issues related to the simulation topic, focusing on facts, perhaps a statutory excerpt, and case law. Based on your knowledge of the particular area of law, you can compose a neutral memorandum (not to exceed 750 words) that outlines each legal issue with a short explanation of the applicable legal rules or doctrine. The sources of law for this memorandum are the area of law and any relevant statutory and case law. Your perspective is not that of an advocate. Instead, your analysis is as objective as possible in spotting any potential issues that could arise in the case and opine the likelihood of success on each point. You will complete this phase of the assignment individually. Be sure to carefully review the materials included in Writing on a Digital Platform and Writing and Research. Include a statement that meets the requirements for the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and GenAI policy. Never post a Word, Google Doc, or PDF.

During the second phase, you will prepare for an in-class Q&A discussion of the issues presented by the materials included in the first phase. You will be assigned to a team that will advocate for one side or the other during the discussion.

I will evaluate the following factors when I assess your contributions to the simulations:

Phase 1: Assessment will be based on the clarity of your writing, spelling, and grammar, document appearance and satisfaction of form requirements, articulation of all potential issues presented, and the quality and depth of analysis. You will complete Phase 1 individually. Your issues memorandum should reflect a thoughtful, substantive, and well-reasoned summary and
Phase 2: Assessment will be based on your mastery of the issues under consideration, your contribution to the preparatory work of your team, and your participation in the give-and-take of the in-class discussion.

AT Project

You will complete this deliverable by developing your AT Project (ATP) using Adobe Express, WordPress, and the Teams ATP channel.

The project aims to develop an in-depth understanding of the history of the US Supreme Court and Constitutional Law by creating a collaborative multimedia project focusing on legal, ethical, and various interdisciplinary perspectives.

Much of your work in this course will be as part of a small project team. Teams will be formed based on a mix of interests and skills. Your work on that project team will focus on developing an analysis that examines the implications of an area related to the course’s subject matter. Of course, I expect you will address the ethical issues that arise. Each team will develop its ATP using Adobe Express to create digital artifacts that will be incorporated into your ATP. You will use WordPress to build your ATP site over the semester. Each team must use its Teams ATP channel for all brainstorming, communication, file sharing, etc., related to the ATP. Each team will be responsible for preparing and posting progress and content updates to their project channel in Teams as described in the schedule. Teams will provide full transparency as the project development process progresses. In other words, everyone involved in the course with access to our Teams workspace will have the opportunity to review and comment on the progress of each team’s project.

You will join a project team that will be responsible for the management of all aspects of the development of your ATP:

Your ATP will feature a multimedia production documentary in which a storyteller (your team) combines photos, videos, and audio with interviews, narration, text, and graphics to deliver a message, invoke an emotional response, and suggest action. I would encourage you to include diverse perspectives, especially from those impacted by the area of law that is the focus of your ATP.
Your ATP will examine not just the legal aspects of the area of law but also the cultural, economic, ethical, personal, political, social, and regulatory perspectives, as well as the present and future, of the area you have chosen. You will develop these sections as the semester progresses. The calendar and course schedule will guide submission dates and deadlines.
Prepare and share your analysis using Adobe Express to develop project-specific artifacts and WordPress to build your ATP. This allows your classmates to prepare thoroughly for our ATP discussions.
Active participation in the scheduled discussion of all ATPs.

You will use your ATP Teams channel to collaborate with your team and memorialize your discussions and supporting materials, including, for example, web sources, documents, and multimedia content for each case. Be sure to carefully review the materials included in Writing on a Digital Platform and Writing and Research.

Your ATP will include, but not be limited to, the following sections (submission deadlines in the Schedule):

Phase 1 | Preliminary Evaluation (post to ATP channel and WordPress Project site)

Outline key issues and adjacent domains related to your ATP area of focus and
Submit a report (500 words maximum) to your ATP channel
Assessment will be based on clarity, relevance, and depth of preliminary analysis

Phase 2 | Status Report and Updates (post to ATP channel and WordPress Project site)

Provide a progress assessment of your ATP and
Include challenges faced and how they were addressed

Phase 3 | Status Report and Updates (post to ATP channel and WordPress Project site)

Provide a progress assessment of your ATP and
Include challenges faced and how they were addressed

Phase 4 | Final AT Project (post to WordPress ATP site)

The ATP must incorporate, but not be limited to:

All of the sections identified in the WordPress ATP template
A multimedia documentary that incorporates a diverse range of perspectives and disciplines related to the ATP focus area
A source list with hyperlinks to all references and

Phase 5 | ATP Discussions

All teams will facilitate and participate in an integrated discussion of the ATPs during our Week 16 class meetings. Each AT Project Team will select a Team Lead for each Monday and Wednesday session; the Team Leads will facilitate an integrated discussion of the ATPs in their respective sessions. The assessment will be based on the requirements described in Writing and Research and Writing on a Digital Platform. I will also evaluate the depth of content, interdisciplinary approach, ethical considerations, and multimedia integration, as well as your contributions to your team, level of engagement, clarity of writing, spelling and grammar, appearance and satisfaction of form requirements, articulation of all potential issues presented, and quality and depth of analysis.

Grading

The following weights will be assigned to each component of your final grade:
