Friday May 24th from 9:00 am – 10:00 am
iTeach, iLearn, iRobot: Teaching and Using AI
iTeach, iLearn, iRobot: Teaching and Using AI with Integrity
Course Description: Times, they are a-changing. And it appears that we either must get on board or get out of the way. In the case of artificial intelligence (AI), it seems it is here to stay. Workplaces, organizations, and companies are utilizing AI in their everyday practices, and we must ensure our students are well informed on the effective use of AI, enhancing their job readiness skills. In this session, we will discuss the need to educate our students on how to use AI effectively, appropriately, and most importantly with integrity. We will also discuss various ways to incorporate this into your already existing classrooms and courses. Plan to attend this session for a fun and informative professional development on AI in the classroom!

Friday May 24th from 10:00 am – 11:00 am
Near the Finish Line: A Closer Look at the English
Near the Finish Line: A Closer Look at the English Redesign Project
Course Description: A growing body of research shows that co-requisite learning is much more effective than the traditional prerequisite approach. The English Redesign Project aims to significantly reduce the number of remedial (or prerequisite) courses needed to start college-level coursework. With fewer or no remedial courses, students get near the finish line faster and with far less debt.
