AI for Educators: Frontiers

Monday, June 10 – Thursday, June 13, 2024

What can we do today that we couldn’t do last year? Advances in generative AI are unlocking new and unexplored possibilities for teaching and learning. This workshop is an invitation to map the frontiers, leveraging AI to create transformational experiences, including personalized tutoring systems; multimodal projects that blend text, visuals and sound; immersive role-playing simulations; and curiosity-driven, student-generated projects.

In this one-week intensive, we will engage in hands-on exploration. As participants we will collectively experiment, critique and refine our approaches as we develop cutting-edge, AI-inflected tools and pedagogies to share with our students and colleagues this fall. Join us for an exciting and forward-looking dive into the future.

Format

AI for Educators: Frontiers includes four 90-minute synchronous workshops, scheduled daily, Monday – Thursday. Participants may attend either the daytime or evening sessions, or a combination of both.
