Faculty may only participate in ONE track. Seats in each track are limited and may be subject to dean/supervisor approval.

 

Exploring Generative AI as a Catalyst for Learning

This Destination track is designed to empower faculty with practical strategies for enhancing their teaching and learning approaches while they or their students use AI as a tool. The track places a strong emphasis on the practical application of AI principles in real-world contexts, providing actionable learning strategies and concrete examples for immediate implementation. Through a hands-on approach, participants will master theoretical concepts and achieve immediate, tangible results with AI in their teaching practices, while developing ethical approaches for responsible innovation.

Outcomes:

• Evaluate the capabilities and limitations of AI tools to enrich teaching and learning experiences.
• Develop a personal philosophy for using AI ethically and responsibly to achieve learning goals.
• Explore interactive learning activities that leverage AI to enhance critical thinking, creativity, and student voice.
• Create teaching and learning artifacts for assistive and generative uses of AI that align with pedagogical values and educational philosophy.
• Foster capacity for continual reflection and balanced perspective on AI innovation in higher education.
