AI isn\u2019t just a way for students to generate soulless discussion posts or get out of doing genuine research and writing.\u00a0 It can also be used to deepen learning and actually make students want to engage. This interactive workshop will explore how professors are using AI to think outside the pedagogical box, gamify learning, and help students think more critically (yes, really). Through a lively mix of \u201cshow and tell,\u201d we\u2019ll look at real-world examples of AI boosting\u2014not replacing\u2014human connection in the classroom. Whether you’re AI-curious or AI-skeptical, you’ll leave with practical, ethical, and surprisingly fun ways to make AI work for you (and your students).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
