AI Pop-Up Clinics: Straight talk about AI in the classroom
Join the Center for Teaching and Learning and the Presidential AI Taskforce for a new series of AI Pop-Up Clinics—practical, focused sessions led by Marshall faculty who are experimenting with AI tools in their teaching. These sessions will be practical, candid deep dives into real examples of what’s actually working (or not) from those on the front lines of AI integration. Expect concrete takeaways, adaptable assignments, and classroom-tested methods you can revise for your own courses.

The Impacts of Generative AI on Course Materials, Pedagogy, and Assessment
When: Wednesday, November 12 | 9:00-10:30
Where: Online via Teams
Registration: Encouraged to receive the link directly
Generative AI creates powerful pedagogical possibilities – but also requires us to rethink our approach to assessment of learning. Come join a demo and lively discussion of (1) concrete ways to leverage AI to improve student learning and (2) emerging approaches to measuring student learning even when students have access to AI tools.

The Pros and Cons of Grading with AI
When: Tuesday, November 18 | 2:00-3:00
Where: Online via Teams
Registration: Encouraged to receive the link directly
Much of the conversation around AI and higher ed has revolved around student use of AI and how instructors can either encourage or discourage it. This AI pop-up clinic, however, will focus instead on several practical AI tools and strategies instructors can leverage to transparently and ethically evaluate student work, specifically by giving more and more detailed individual feedback to students.

A Case Study Evaluating AI Multi-Tool Engagement for Deeper Learning
When: Wednesday, December 3 | 2:00-3:30
Where: Online via Teams
Registration: Encouraged to receive the link directly
This pop-up session showcases a practical case study of how generative AI tools were intentionally integrated into a graduate-level counseling course to support active, personalized, and process-oriented learning. Participants will explore how NotebookLM, a Custom GPT Tutor, and a Custom GPT Simulation were woven into the course design to scaffold critical thinking, simulate real-world practice, and enhance student reflection. The session will include implementation strategies, student feedback, and lessons learned, offering a springboard for instructors considering thoughtful use of AI in their own teaching.
