Working with AI: Tools & Techniques

Join us.

AI Literacy begins with knowing which AI tool to use but then requires asking better questions and evaluating responses: extensions of the critical writing and thinking skills we already teach and value. AI prompts need human context, but AI also has new capabilities: AI can search for ideas and expand perspectives. Prompting is not engineering; prompting is writing. In this interactive workshop, you will get to practice lots of techniques on a wide variety of rapidly-evolving AI tools. Our goal is to get a realistic understanding of how AI is already changing human work and thinking and how you might begin to use it to improve your research and teaching.

• We will explore how AI is changing work and thinking and how we can ensure all of our students are prepared for the future.
• We will develop skills using various AI tools.
• We will practice with AI tools that might help with faculty tasks.
