AI Learning Community: Exploring, if, or how, AI Fits with Your Teaching

This AI Learning Community is designed for everyone in any stage of the process of contemplation of generative AI use. Its purpose is to provide a structured and supportive community in which you can experiment with different uses of the technology, and make informed decisions if, or how, its use might benefit you and/or your students.

This learning community will combine and short assignment tasks with community meet-ups to discuss observations and issues. Given the university's investment, we ask that you commit to completion of all the elements of the program. If you are unable to attend one of the meet-ups, please email Nicola Corbin at nicolacorbin@weber.edu. 

Complete registration form by September 6. Limited seating is available. You will be emailed with enrollment details by September 13.
