Fall Symposium: AI in Instruction

The AI Hub and the Center for Teaching and Learning invites you to the Fall Symposium on AI in Instruction, where we will rise to the challenge set by Provost David for RIT to lead in the integration of AI into education!

This symposium will showcase the innovative ways AI is already enhancing student learning, from 24/7 tutoring and office hours to personalized problem-solving experiences that resonate with students' own learning interests. We’ll provide practical demonstrations of how AI tools can empower instructors and faculty, helping them become more effective in their educational responsibilities while maintaining the quality of teacher-student interactions. We also invite you to engage in an open dialogue about where AI could provide the most value in your own teaching practice—especially in tasks where outsourcing to AI might lighten your workload while preserving the human connection with students.

This symposium is not just about sharing cutting-edge tools, but about working together as a community to shape how AI can meet your needs. We are actively seeking participants interested in collaborating on research to assess and publish findings on the effectiveness of AI tools. Additionally, we hope to form complementary partnerships with faculty who bring diverse skills that can help us align with the provost’s vision for AI in instruction. This will be a collaborative, inclusive event, where every voice matters as we work toward a shared future in AI-enhanced education.

This session is intended for RIT faculty, including adjuncts and teaching assistants. Interpreting Services will be provided.

Note: A second session will be held on Friday, November 1, 2024. Details will be forthcoming!
