AI in the Classroom: A Virtual Summit - 2025
AI Across the Disciplines: Bridging Perspectives in STEM and the Humanities
Zoom Recording
Description
The presentation examines and identifies ways in which faculty members can use AI as a tool for teaching that reflects the ethos and standards of their respective disciplines. The arts and humanities tend to focus on interpretation and the expression of a unique vision across changing contexts. STEM disciplines, in contrast, seek objectivity and rely on the scientific method to verify knowledge. Four panel members, a student from engineering and a second from art and two faculty members from the College of Education with degrees in math, English and education, will share their use of AI in the classroom. The take-away will be a set of strategies for using AI set within the larger discussion of the ways in which it shapes and is shaped by our own academic traditions.
