The AI for Teaching and Learning Working Group invites the entire UD community to join the AI Seminar Series. This series—hosted collaboratively with the Library, Museums and Press— aims to help UD faculty and staff grapple with how AI is changing the nature of teaching and learning in higher education. It will provide opportunities to dive more deeply into the central questions and concerns that arise as faculty have experimented with these tools in their teaching. Seminars are fully virtual, require registration and will feature lively panel discussions allowing attendees to consider numerous experiences and perspectives.

Multiple virtual panel presentations will provide insight into the broad themes of:

Does AI enhance or subvert learning?

This theme will explore how faculty have investigated the capabilities of AI tools in discipline-specific contexts, to better understand how it can be effectively deployed and when its use should be limited. We will also explore how generative AI complicates information evaluation and impacts trust in online information.

Centering students

This theme will focus on what we know about student use of generative AI tools, what we now know about student attitudes and expectations surrounding AI during their time at UD, and how the world of work students are entering is changing as different fields are exposed to the impacts of AI.

The first session, “Does AI Enhance or Subvert Learning?,” will be held from 3-4 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 8, and will feature faculty who have experimented with the use of these tools in teaching writing, education content and computer science.
