Engagement and Assessment in the Age of AI

Who: All FASS faculty and instructors are invited. This interactive discussion is for those of us teaching a course for the first time, as well as those of us redesigning a well-seasoned course.
What: The rise of AI has presented opportunities but has also challenged us to determine new ways of promoting student engagement as well as meaningfully assess student learning. Across FASS we are facing many similar challenges, particularly in terms of teaching reading, writing, and argumentation. This workshop is an opportunity for FASS instructors to come together to share best practices and gain a more collective sense of things we can do to teach effectively in the age of AI. FASS Teaching Mentors will lead discussion in two groups: one focused on teaching large classes, and the other on smaller classes. We hope to see you there!
