Instructor Series: One Educator's (reluctant) AI Adventures
Presenter: Dr. Janna Rosales, Associate Professor (Teaching), Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science
I didn't want to buy a ticket for this roller coaster but I guess I'm in for the ride!
If the proliferation of generative AI has left you feeling curious, skeptical, overwhelmed, fascinated, exhausted—or all of the above—you're not alone. Join Dr. Rosales for a candid look at one educator's ongoing attempt to make sense of generative AI without becoming either an evangelist or a doomsayer. We'll talk about what it's like to teach amidst uncertainty, why educators belong in conversations about AI policy and practice, and what happens when technologies challenge our assumptions about what education is for in the first place.
Through stories, questions, resources, and shared reflection, participants will be invited to move beyond reacting to AI and toward making more intentional choices about what we want education—and educational technology—to be.
This is an online session and it will be recorded.
