SUMMARY:Introduction to AI Inspired Pedagogies
DESCRIPTION:Register here| Facilitator: Laina Lockett\nThis section is full; therefore\, registration is closed. We created an additional section in July due to high demand. \nBy now you’ve probably heard of ChatGPT or one of the other various new large language models (LLMs) that have taken the world by storm. But do you know how to deal with the ever-evolving artificial intelligence technology as it relates to your teaching? In this mini course you will be exposed to the basics of redesigning your course as it relates to learning outcomes and instructional activities. We will also explore how to get feedback from students regarding the changes that you make. \n*Adding to your calendar will not register you for the event; please register using the link above.

SUMMARY:Info Session: AI in Teaching & Learning Project
DESCRIPTION:Register here. | Facilitator: Breana Bayraktar\nDiscover the Next Phase of the AI in Teaching and Learning Project \nOver the past two years\, the AI in Teaching and Learning project has brought together faculty\, staff\, and students from across the state to explore how AI is reshaping higher education. Our first phase focused on research into faculty and student experiences with AI\, and our second phase developed evidence-based educational resources—covering student onboarding\, assignment design\, assessment\, accessibility\, OER\, and more—to help instructors integrate AI ethically and effectively. \nFor the next phase (AY 2025–2026) we are recruiting faculty\, staff\, and students to join existing project teams or propose new ones. Project leads will guide you through planning\, research design\, IRB processes\, and building cross-disciplinary and cross-institutional collaborations. \nJoin us for this informational session to learn how you can get involved\, share your ideas\, and help shape the future of AI in higher education.
