Approaching Assignment Design in Light of Artificial Intelligence: Part II

This is the second session of a 2-day training opportunity.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly prevalent in higher education and society at large. When designing assignments involving AI you might fall into one of two camps, those who encourage engagement with AI and those who discourage it. 

Designing Assignments in light of AI comprises a critical analysis that includes reflecting on learning goals, choosing teaching and learning methods that support attaining those goals, and determining what role AI should play in completing assignments as well as the affordances and limitations of specific AI applications.  

During this two-part series, participants will learn and explore evidence-based processes for designing assignments and hear about example assignments from university instructors who have designed assignments that incorporate AI. The first session will focus on designing approaching a single assignment or project while the second session will focus on designing approaching longitudinal assignments. 

Please register for each event in the series you wish to attend. 

Workshop dates are as follows:

• February 22nd:  Approaching Assignment Design in Light of Artificial Intelligence I. Register here.
• February 29th:  Approaching  Assignments Design in Light of Artificial Intelligence II. Register here.

After this workshop participants will be able to:

• for a given assignment/activity, identify the critical points of intersection between the capacities, affordances, and limitations of AI and the learning goals/needs of students.
• craft an assignment/activity study or project in their discipline that they can use with students immediately in a course design, whether current or in the future.
• incorporate transparent and clear directions about approaching and completing the assignment/activity.

If you have registered for this event, or are on the waitlist and require an accommodation such as live captioning or interpretation to participate, please contact drakeinstitute@osu.edu. Requests should be made at least two weeks prior to the event, but the university will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.

All members of the university community are welcome in Drake Institute activities, programs, services, and employment —regardless of age, ancestry, color, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity or expression, genetic information, HIV/AIDS status, military status, national origin, pregnancy, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, protected veteran status, or any other bases under the law.

Institute for Teaching and Learning programming is offered in accordance with university guidelines associated with in-person and remote activities. The Institute will inform registrants of delivery modifications should those guidelines change.
