A space for conversation, curiosity, and critical engagement
A Community of Practice (CoP) on Monday, April 13 brings together faculty and staff from across the institution who are thinking about artificial intelligence in their teaching, learning, research, and professional practice.
Whether you are actively using AI tools, cautiously exploring their possibilities, or choosing not to use them for principled reasons, there is a place for your perspective here.
The CoP takes place from 1-2 pm on the UFV Abbotsford campus (Building G, room G124) and online, creating space for ongoing dialogue about the complexities, tensions, and evolving landscape of AI. It offers a non-judgmental environment to share experiences, questions, concerns, and practices, and to learn from the diverse ways colleagues are engaging with or deliberately stepping back from these technologies.
Each gathering is lightly structured around an anchoring theme or guiding question (for example, ethical framing conversations with students, disciplinary perspectives on AI, or emergent issues arising in our classes), while leaving room for conversation to evolve in response to participants’ interests and needs.
The AI Community of Practice is open to anyone interested in joining the conversation. No prior experience with AI tools is required. We meet monthly in a hybrid format, both in person and online.
If you would like to join, please email TLCevents@ufv.ca.
