In Spring 2025, theÌýEducational Technology Research Assistants (ETRA) conducted a mixed-methods research study to gain insight into the perspectives of Âé¶¹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØundergraduate students on generative AI. The researchers asked the following questions:
- How and why are Âé¶¹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder undergraduates actually using AI?
- What do they think about this technology?
- And what policies and practices do students want their instructors and the broader institution to implement going forward?
°Õ³ó±ðÌýETRA’s report of findings presents survey results from a final dataset of 2,992 respondents. This final version, updated Spring 2026, includes response comparisons by demographic category (e.g. by college, gender, international status) as well as a new qualitative analysis detailing respondents’ concerns about generative AI in education.ÌýÌý
Ultimately, our goal is to inform future initiatives and interventions related to generative AI on the Âé¶¹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ campus. If you’d like to request a presentation or discuss this research, please contactÌýJacie Moriyama.Ìý ÌýÌý
