Develop practical strategies for designing more AI-resistant courses that promote authentic and applied student learning.
How can we design courses that are engaging, meaningful, and not easily completed through generative AI?
This collaborative, hands-on workshop will help faculty explore practical strategies for creating more AI-resistant learning experiences by focusing on the applied skills and disciplinary practices at the heart of their courses. Together, participants will identify the knowledge, abilities, and habits of mind they most want students to develop, examine where AI may be bypassing those learning opportunities, and generate ideas for activities, assignments, and assessments that foreground authentic, applied learning.
Through discussion, sharing, and experimentation, faculty will leave with concrete approaches they can test and adapt in their own courses to better support genuine student learning in an AI-infused world.
Facilitators: Anna Griffith & Dr. David Thomson
