How exactly does someone teach with Generative AI? How do we incorporate these powerful tools into our teaching and learning strategies?

Use tools like ChatGPT,  CoPilot and Elicit to increase student engage with your course content. Examples include: 

• Critical analysis, research skills, and content literacy are challenged by verifying AI-generated responses
• Presentations of student projects identify accurate AI-generated information while discounting and correcting inaccuracies or oversimplifications
• Responding to AI-generated real-world scenarios build creative thinking and problem-solving skills  
• Learn academic argumentation by producing counterarguments to AI-generated positions and anticipating opposing viewpoints

Save time and expand your creative portfolio by using AI to:

• Create rubric and syllabi creation
• Develop learning outcomes
• Conduct extensive research
• Develop multiple choice and free response questions
• Perform literature reviews and images
• Brainstorm new assessments, and
• Write programs without knowing how to code

The strategies and resources below provide faculty with a solid foundation to further understand, apply and leverage AI for their own pedagogical and professional endeavors.
