This fall, the FCTL is excited to promote a series of faculty-led webinars discussing different aspects of and perspectives on one of the most hot-button issues facing the academic world today: artificial intelligence.

These one-hour long virtual sessions are being hosted by a variety of faculty members from a wide variety of disciplines, and deal with the questions that most impact instructors as they take on the educational landscape in the age of AI. What is AI literacy, and how do we employ it in the classroom? How do we design effective courses and assessments in this new technological age? What can we learn from the student perspective on AI? And what does university leadership have to say about it all? The answers to these questions and more can be found in the sessions being offered this semester. Find the full session schedule and facilitators below to pick which webinars you would like to be a part of this fall. Sign-up to attend using the link below the schedule.
