Reflecting and Improving Critical Thinking with Gen AI
On Wed March 20, from 10-11am, join the OFE and Patricia Virella on zoom to discuss the March theme of the FIEAL series.
Posted in: Opportunities, Special Projects
Join OFE and Patricia Virella for the March session of our Fostering Intellectual Engagement through Active Learning (FIEAL) series. The series focuses on developing strategies for guiding students in active learning toward intellectual engagement.
In the March workshop, Reflecting and Improving Critical Thinking with Gen AI, participants will design learning opportunities for students that encourage critical thinking. They will identify how to create assignments that improve upon a GenAI response by prompting revisions and additions to GenAI output.
When: Wed, March 20, 10-11am
Where: online/Zoom
NOTE: everyone is welcome to attend this event — including those who are completely new to FIEAL series and/or communities of practice!
