Spring 2026 Series on Writing & Generative AI: Reflecting in Community: Learning & Next Steps

Audience: All

“…reflection in the context of learning is a generic term for those intellectual and affective activities in which individuals engage to explore their experiences in order to lead to new understandings and appreciation. It may take place in isolation or in association with others…” (Boud, Keogh, Walker, 1985, p. 19). 

After a series of workshops focused on generative AI and writing, this final session is intended to be a space for reflection, meaning-making, and identification of future actions. Participants will engage in individual and collective reflection activities designed to surface new knowledge, insights, and questions. Participants should leave with a greater sense of clarity about their own next steps, ranging from further professional development on generative AI to pedagogical techniques for better addressing generative AI in future writing assignments.
