Developing AI-Literacy Activities for Meaningful Learning

November 20, 2025 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Facilitators:
Victoria Sheldon, Faculty Liaison Coordinator, Generative AI Pedagogies, CTSI
Derek Hunt, Faculty Liaison, Teaching, Learning & Technology, CTSI  

The final session focuses on equipping students with the AI literacy skills needed to engage with AI technologies critically, ethically, and effectively. Participants will discuss actionable, incremental ways to develop and integrate discipline-specific AI literacy activities into courses, while ensuring effective connections to assessments and broader course goals.

The workshop will address how to help students become both informed evaluators and responsible users of these technologies, guiding them to critically evaluate AI-generated content and understand the ethical and social implications of AI systems. By integrating AI literacy activities throughout the curriculum – whether students are actively using AI tools, analyzing AI outputs, or examining AI’s broader societal impact – instructors can create meaningful and equitable learning experiences that foster students’ future readiness in both professional and personal lives.

This webinar is Part 3 of the CTSI GenAI Workshop Series: Adapting Teaching and Assessment with Generative AI in Mind.
