AI-Aware Teaching

A Workshop for Faculty across Disciplines

Presenter is Dr. Annette Vee
Associate Professor of English and Faculty Liaison for AI at University of Pittsburgh
Co-Author, The Norton Guide to AI-Aware Teaching

AI has arrived in our classrooms, and students bring complex responses to it: curiosity, anxiety, fatigue, and pragmatic calculation about when and whether to use it. How can college instructors make choices about AI that serve their courses and their students’ learning? “AI-aware” teaching means understanding how AI has reshaped the landscape of teaching and learning, then leading students along new paths through it to meet your course’s learning objectives. Whether you want to resist AI or engage with it, being aware of how AI changes learning will help you support your students and meet your own pedagogical goals. This talk will introduce The Norton Guide to AI-Aware Teaching (Vee, Watkins, and Bruff), the Universities of Wisconsin’s common read, and highlight teaching innovations by educators in Wisconsin. The book and the talk aim to help you consider the impact of AI on your curriculum, courses, and assignments, and realign your learning outcomes in light of AI’s problems and possibilities.
