Register to attend the AI DEI in the Classroom Workshop
Generative AI affords faculty new pedagogies as well as new ways to employ traditional ones to address diversity efforts in teaching and learning. AI initiatives enjoy an increasingly significant role in teaching and learning. The digital tools associated with AI can support teaching and learning ways that increase efficiency, engagement, and student success. This session is designed to demonstrate how a unique diversity framework guides faculty in the integration of AI tools to support representation, inclusion, social justice and cultural identity initiatives in the classroom. Accompanying AI tools provide exciting opportunities for faculty and students to participate in a learning environment whereby everyone is included and represented. Further, faculty can employ digital tools that support students’ social justice efforts related to the discipline and course content. Learn how to easily create images that reflect the diversity of your students, quickly develop scripts representative of diverse points of view that can be used in videos, case studies, and role plays. Emphasis will be placed on how to use the tools to achieve diversity, equity and inclusion goals for teaching and learning. All are welcome from AI novices to experts.
