This practical session will start with the implications of how AI is changing average. We will examine how we can design assignments (including writing) that will motivate students to do the hard work only they can do: AI can now customize every assignment to increase the motivation and effort of every individual student. We will discover how AI can create materials and will create design activities, simulations and a tutor bot that can support student learning without providing answers. Our most important goal, however, is to create assignments that foster and protect critical thinking and human agency while also raising standards.
- We will explore the implications of AI customization.
- We will consider how AI helps or hurts equity and inclusion on our campus.
- We will create new assignments and student support bots with AI.
- We will understand the implications of agents and vibe-coding.
