Description
As AI tools become increasingly accessible, students are already incorporating them into their academic work. Instead of resisting this shift, educators can adapt by integrating AI into assignments to enhance learning, foster creativity, and stimulate critical thinking. This session explores innovative methods for embedding AI into coursework while maintaining academic rigor and integrity. Participants will leave with practical strategies for AI-enhanced assignments that engage students in meaningful, ethical, and discipline-specific ways.
