More than two decades ago, I advocated enabling students to follow the evolving developments and topics in the classes I taught through news blogs. I called the concept “semester without end.” Now, OpenAI is suggesting that custom GPTs be created to accompany classes, facilitating learning during the semester, extending learning on the topic “and let[ting] people engage with the content in a lifelong manner.” Particularly in rapidly changing fields such as technology, it is important to provide updates after the class term is over. It is for that reason that I have blogged news updates on topics related to educational technologies for the past quarter century, and that more recently, I developed my own GPT, Ray’s eduAI Advisor. I remain hopeful that this will become a standard practice for higher learning in the future. Just imagine each class that is offered continues to provide insights and new updates in an open format into the future.
