Exploring In-class Exercises and Lesson Plans that Integrate Generative AI

Wednesday, February 5, 2025

8am PT | 10am CT | 11am ET | 4pm GMT | 5pm CET

In higher education, most of the conversation about the impact of generative AI has focused on text output for research and writing projects. But what about image generation with AI? Join us to hear three faculty members share their diverse approaches to helping their students build essential visual communication skills, increasingly leveraging the power of Adobe Firefly and other generative AI tools.

You'll discover:

  • How image-based AI tools can facilitate both general AI literacy and practical visual communication for academic work and beyond

  • Cross-curricular strategies to engage and empower learners through images, graphics, and creative thinking

  • Ways to equip students to become critical, ethical, agile users of visual generative AI, especially in their future careers

Connecting AI Literacy, Learning Outcomes, and Career Readiness

Wednesday, March 5, 2025

8am PT | 10am CT | 11am ET | 4pm GMT | 5pm CET

To integrate generative AI across the curriculum, higher education institutions must find meaningful connections between students’ day-to-day academic work, their learning outcomes, and the growing demand for AI literacy everywhere.

This session explores ways to do that work from the perspectives of both education and industry. Our featured panelists will reflect on what measurable skills and learning experiences students need in order to face the future classroom and an uncertain future of work.

They’ll also offer insights into what employers and academic institutions are looking for in terms of integrated approaches to generative AI across the curriculum.

You'll discover:

  • How innovative institutions in North America approach curricular transformation and career readiness in the age of generative AI

  • Strategies to thoughtfully and equitably invite all students to develop AI literacy through learning outcomes shared by all disciplines

  • The growing expectations industry stakeholders have for college graduates transitioning to or upskilling in the workforce

Designing and Assessing Student Projects that Integrate Generative AI

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.

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.
