In our six sessions this year, higher education innovators will showcase
how they’re supporting student success by integrating generative AI into
courses across the curriculum. Find out how they’re designing and
assessing assignments, enhancing visual communication skills, connecting
generative AI skills with learning outcomes, and more to help all
students graduate as critical, ethical, and agile users of emerging
technologies.

Designing and Assessing Student Projects that Integrate Generative
AI
Wednesday, September 25, 2024
8am PT | 10am CT | 11am ET | 4pm GMT | 5pm CET
Our students are eager to learn to use generative AI and incorporate
it into their work, and we are, too. But how can we integrate this
technology into our coursework in ways that support our desired
learning outcomes? In this session, faculty from four different
disciplines will lead us in an interactive conversation about what
their students are doing in the classroom with generative AI.
They'll share class activities that have engaged students and helped
build skills like critical thinking, collaboration, and creative
problem-solving. And they'll tell us about the challenges they've
encountered and the successes they've achieved.
How they created assessment strategies and rubrics to support
their teaching goals
Practical insights on achieving the right learning outcomes
Instructional materials and student work samples to inspire
your own innovations with assignments and assessment
Exploring In-class Exercises and Lesson Plans that Integrate
Generative AI
Wednesday, November 6, 2024
8am PT | 10am CT | 11am ET | 4pm GMT | 5pm CET
To ensure that our students become critical, ethical, and agile
users of generative AI, we need to integrate it into courses in
every discipline. In this session, four faculty members will share a
dozen successful classroom exercises and lesson plans that engage
students and help build transferable skills like creativity and
collaboration.

One Year Later: Exploring New Policies and Guidelines for Integrating Generative AI Across the Curriculum
At the start of the 2023-2024 school year, thought leaders from four campuses visited the Adobe Digital Literacy Café to share how they established initial guidelines around the use of generative AI in academics. One year later, three schools have gathered and shared how they have evolved their approaches to responsibly integrating the technology across the curriculum — as well as one EDUCAUSE researcher who recently coauthored a report on AI integration in the education sector.
