Educators at USC have exciting opportunities to explore the transformative potential of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in teaching. The upcoming AI Teaching Fellowship Showcase will take place on Friday, February 21, 2025, from 9am-1pm, and will highlight innovative projects by faculty who have integrated GenAI to enrich learning experiences. This event will feature discussions around how AI-driven tools can foster creativity, personalize learning, and streamline educational processes. You can interact with Provost AI Teaching Fellowship recipients to gain insights into their projects.
In addition to the showcase, you are invited to join the Generative AI Community of Practice (CoP) this spring. The GenAI CoP is a collaborative initiative designed to connect educators interested in the strategic use of AI in teaching. Through regular meetings and interactive discussions, CoP members will explore the latest advancements in AI technology, discuss best practices for incorporating GenAI into course design, and examine the ethical dimensions of AI in educational contexts. This ongoing space for professional growth encourages you to engage in active knowledge-sharing while staying informed about emerging AI applications in education. Fill out the GenAI CoP Interest Form to be notified of future meetings.
For those looking to build foundational skills in AI implementation, the Teaching and Learning with Generative Artificial Intelligence Webinar Series offers a structured, practical approach. Covering essential topics such as content generation, adaptive feedback, and strategies for enhancing student engagement, the series provides clear, actionable guidance on responsible and effective GenAI integration. Participants who complete all six sessions and a reflective activity at the end will receive a digital badge.
These upcoming opportunities reflect the CTE’s commitment to supporting you as you navigate the dynamic AI landscape and explore its potential for enhancing education. We encourage faculty, staff, and graduate students to engage with these resources, connect with peers, and join us in advancing the possibilities of GenAI in teaching.
