Helping Faculty to Embrace the Potential of Generative AI (Vendor Webinar)

Upon the release of novel generative AI (GAI) systems in November 2022, the team at RUSH University responded by developing interactive skills labs for faculty. To date, they have hosted four skills labs, each focused on a different facet of generative AI capabilities and applications. These labs imparted foundational knowledge while emphasizing skill-building for implementation. Layering in hands-on activities dispelled fear-driven biases, cultivated technical proficiencies, and highlighted ethical integrations. 

In addition to skills labs, they also hosted Open Forums for faculty to express concerns, ask questions, and learn from each other’s expertise and experiences with AI systems, as well as several standalone labs focused on singular tools, how to choose a tool and how to incorporate those tools into the classroom effectively. The labs and forums equipped faculty to evaluate impacts, adapt practices, and realize strategic opportunities with each new advance in generative AI. They left the workshops with increased confidence, prepared to integrate rapidly evolving tools critically and creatively into their teaching.
