Teaching with AI Workshops from AAC&U

December 01, 2024 1:42 PM | DCSS Admin (Administrator)

The American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) is offering "Teaching with AI," a series of workshops designed to prepare faculty for a new era of human learning. January 27 – February 17, 2025, Mondays from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. ET (Virtual).

"The emergence of powerful generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools is having a significant and disruptive impact on higher education today. Almost immediately after the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, students began leveraging AI to help with a variety of course-related tasks, often including the completion of writing and other types of assignments. Meanwhile, nearly all business sectors now anticipate using generative AI in the workplace, and many are already reporting challenges in filling roles that require AI skills.

"While the initial inclination may have been to limit AI’s influence in the classroom, higher education now faces the challenge of preparing students for a world where working with AI is increasingly likely to be a job expectation and a sought-after competency."

See complete information about the workshops on the AAC&U website. Note that many colleges and universities have institutional memberships that may allow faculty members to participate for a reduced price.
