The Center for Teaching & Learning Innovation is organizing a faculty learning community (FLC) for the upcoming 2026-2027 academic year, which will focus on generative AI.
An FLC is an interdisciplinary group of faculty members who collaborate with their peers to explore a topic of interest related to teaching and learning. It is structured as a year–long program in which the group shares ideas, provides encouragement and support, and develop impactful innovations.
In addition to learning from one another and relevant articles/podcasts, the FLC colleagues will be working together on one of the projects below, as selected by the members of the group:
- Developing Updated AI Literacy Modules for Students
- Developing AI Literacy & AI Resources for Fellow Faculty
- Co-Authoring OER Content with AI for Teaching
- Developing Custom Chatbots to Support Student Learning
- Creating Assignments in the Age of Generative AI
We encourage faculty to explore professional development funds through their union contract as a possibility for compensation. Faculty should expect to spend 1-2 hours per week for the duration of the academic year when making this commitment.
