Check out Jeff James and Christa Lee-Chuvala's presentation on AI in the classroom. Note that this presentation was recorded during a power outage at the May 2026 Faculty Development Workshop, so when the presenters hopped off the internet to show some AI examples, they did not make it into the recording. Regardless, they do a wonderful job describing then need to expose students to AI use and explaining the pedagogical principles behind AI integration.
