Join faculty colleagues from sister COPLAC schools for discussions on generative AI in the curriculum and classroom!

Collaborating across four COPLAC institutions, we're embarking on a year-long journey to explore generative AI's impact on and potential to enhance student learning. We're launching with monthly summer office hours and transitioning to monthly gatherings in the fall to collaboratively develop AI-informed assignments using a charrette process.
