The Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning, the Division of Digital Learning, and the UCF Libraries at the University of Central Florida have partnered to present the 3rd annual Teaching and Learning with AI conference.
This event is open to educational practitioners in colleges and universities from around the U.S. and world.
The Teaching & Learning with AI conference aims to discuss how to use AI tools effectively in instruction and support. By joining this conversation, you can help shape the impact of artificial intelligence in both teaching and learning.
The 3rd annual Teaching and Learning with AI conference will be held May 28-30, 2025.
who is the teaching & learning with AI conference for?
Teaching & Learning with AI is designed for instructors, higher education professionals, librarians, researchers, and policymakers who are interested in exploring the potential of AI in higher ed across the higher education landscape. If you want to learn more about how you can leverage AI to improve learning outcomes, research, services, and operations, then this is a must-attend event.
This conference is for faculty, staff who support faculty, librarians, and administrators who are on the front lines of teaching. Your voices are needed to shape the future of using AI in teaching and learning.
There are different ways to leverage the power of AI through generated text, images, and products.
And if you work with students, it’s important to understand and discuss how to use these tools to shape the future of teaching and learning across college campuses.
This conference will have a diverse group of experts and thought leaders who will share their insights, ideas, and experiences with using AI in their courses and beyond.
How is this ai conference different from others?
There are plenty of other conferences surrounding the discussion of AI in higher education. But those conferences spotlight the technical development of artificial intelligence or the use of AI on the back end to improve student outcomes.
This conference specifically focuses on the use of AI in the classroom as experienced by faculty members.
You’ll be able to hear ideas, and contribute your own, to topics like instructional strategies, faculty support, academic integrity, policy, and ethical considerations.
ai is disrupting higher education: what can/should you do about it?
Whether you’re a teaching faculty member, educational developer, instructional designer, instructional technologist, librarian, or administrator, the role that AI will play in the future of higher education is sure to affect you.
You know that students and faculty across the country are embracing its power to both embolden and disrupt the status quo. How you handle it as an educator can prove difficult. That’s why it’s imperative to connect with one another and have frank conversations about harnessing the power of AI to improve faculty and student success.
The main conference centers discussion around the myriad of ways AI impacts teaching and learning methods in the following themes:
- Pedagogical Approaches to Incorporate AI in Teaching and Learning
- Digital Learning and Online Instruction
- Supporting Faculty
- Academic Integrity
- Instructional Design
- Assessment and Evaluation Methods
- Teaching Models
- AI Applications in the Classroom Besides ChatGPT
- Student Success and Retention
- Administrative Tasks, e.g., scheduling, enrollment management
- Student Conduct and Behavior Management
- Ethical Considerations of AI Usage
- Institutional Policies and Regulations
- Global Perspectives on AI in Education
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
Participants from all sectors of higher education are encouraged to submit proposals for short presentations and posters related to the practice of Artificial Intelligence (AI) use in college teaching across all modalities (face-to-face, blended, and fully online). At this conference, we can consider AI-generated text, AI-generated images, and other AI-generated digital products. While other conferences may focus on the research of AI development and programming, this conference is intended to serve the community of frontline faculty members across all disciplines, librarians, administrators, instructional designers, and faculty developers in the practice of AI use in higher education settings.
Topics may include:
- Teaching models that embrace AI tools
- Academic integrity and grading
- Faculty using AI to create course content
- Faculty development and support
- Copyright, ownership, and provenance
- Ethical considerations
- Building AI applications for education
- Institutional policies
- Discipline-specific implementations of AI
Note: Because this is primarily a SHARING conference, sessions are short. Also, priority will be given to proposals that have clear ideas for take-aways that participants can use in their own teaching. Keep in mind that AI will continue to develop and evolve.
The event, which is face-to-face only, has two formats:
- 25-minute interactive sessions for short presentations that challenge participants to discuss deeper, not-easily-answered questions about AI in the college classroom or library.
- Poster sessions will feature visual presentations on both research and sharing topics. Posters can include sharing teaching practices (tips, strategies, and policies) or findings (pilots, preliminary findings, SoTL, meta-studies, theoretical studies, or IRB-type human research) on topics related to AI in higher education. Posters may be digital or print.
Participants are limited to only being part of two presentations (and can only once be the main presenter). Companies that are not sponsors may only present a 25-minute interactive session if they are joined by a frontline faculty member or librarian; otherwise, they may present a poster.
For any questions regarding proposals, please contact us at teachwithai@ucf.edu.
The Call for Proposals opened October 21, 2024 and the deadline to submit a proposal is 11:59 p.m. ET on January 17, 2025. Acceptance decisions will be sent by February 14, 2025.
