Description:

There has been a lot of discussion about how generative AI has impacted higher education’s teaching and learning, research, and professional practices. There are many ways faculty can apply generative AI to support their daily work activities such as writing and research, course design, and personal learning. In this session, we will identify some commonly used generative AI tools, explore how they can be used to support professional practice, and discuss issues related to responsible and ethical use.

Upon completion of this workshop, learners will be able to:

• Define key terms including artificial intelligence (AI), generative AI, large language models, and prompt engineering.
• Identify the four primary categories where educators dedicate most of their time.
• Explore how educators can leverage generative AI technologies to enhance their professional practice.
• Discuss a structured approach to ensure the responsible and ethical use of generative AI tools in educational settings.
