Want to get ideas? Each tile below opens a page with concrete suggestions for using AI in teaching and learning.

Why do many tips say “Prompting” and “Working With”? As the instructor you bring your knowledge, expertise, experience, personality, and creativity to your teaching. Working with AI involves a prompting process that usually includes multiple interactions. It can be helpful in generating preliminary ideas with a starter prompt, then iterating with follow-up prompts until you are satisfied with the results. You can also copy the output into a document and revise it outside of the system.

Did you use AI to brainstorm these tips? Yes, we did. We did not use everything AI suggested, we added some of our own, and we made significant edits to ensure that the final tips were substantive and accurate. Then we held focus groups with the AI in Teaching and Learning Faculty Fellows to get their feedback, which informed further revisions into the final versions you see below. In short, we learned some things and we discarded a great deal.
