Join us on Thursday, February 26th, for our next Webinar!
Event Description:
This webinar shares a classroom-tested approach to teaching writing in relationship with artificial intelligence in a community college context. Drawing on an AI literacy project used in first-year composition, this talk demonstrates how AI is introduced and framed for students, with sample experiments and activities that help them identify AI’s strengths and limitations. The session also discusses course policies designed to be transparent, supportive, and enforceable, along with strategies for identifying and responding to unauthorized AI use without defaulting to surveillance or suspicion. Attendees will leave with concrete examples, policy language, and activity ideas they can use immediately.
