Description

In our University Seminar at the University of Virginia, we leverage generative AI to enhance media and information literacy. As an active participant in the learning process during in-class exercises, AI tools provide experiential insights into the complex role of AI in spreading misinformation. Our hands-on, project-based approach empowers students to critically evaluate and creatively utilize these technologies, thereby preparing students for an increasingly AI-driven world. Attendees will gain insights into this pedagogical method, take away tangible strategies, and receive adaptable lesson plans and assignments for integrating AI tools to cultivate critical thinking in many teaching contexts.
