SUMMARY:Spring 2026 Series on Writing & Generative AI: An Emphasis on Learning while Writing with AI: Transparency\, Accountability\, & Innovation
DESCRIPTION:Audience: AI Experimenters  \nIt can be easy to get caught up in concerns about students abusing generative AI to the point that the purpose of assignments – learning – can start to get lost. At the same time\, helping students understand boundaries\, expectations\, and guardrails around generative AI is realistic and important in order for students to be able to demonstrate their learning. Clearly defined policies and processes regarding generative AI usage can help alleviate student and faculty anxiety and create an environment in which to teach students how and when to use generative AI in responsible\, ethical\, and effective ways. During this session\, we’ll explore\, together\, ideas for engaging students in written assignments that uphold academic integrity\, appropriately/innovatively use generative AI\, and emphasize the assignment’s learning objectives.  \nPresented By: Jen Garrett-Ostermiller\, CTLI Director and Elise Wallace\, Castleton Writing Coordinator \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease register for this event and any others of interest in the series of spring 2026 Writing & Generative AI workshops. When you do\, you will receive an automatic email from the CTLI confirming your registration. This email will include the Zoom link and the option to “add to calendar” using an embedded hyperlink – this will work for Outlook\, Google Calendar\, and Yahoo Calendar.

SUMMARY:Motivating Online Students: Practical Strategies for a One-Hour Course Tune-Up
DESCRIPTION:Studies of online learning show that timely\, authentic instructor feedback and visible participation in discussions are associated with higher engagement\, stronger sense of belonging\, and improved academic performance for online students. In addition\, evidence related to “authentic” or real‑world tasks also indicates that students are more motivated when they can see how course concepts apply to their professional\, personal\, or community contexts. \nDrawing on these findings\, participants will work with concrete examples and leave the session with ready-to-use elements they can integrate into an upcoming course. \nFollowing this session\, participants will be able to: \n*Evaluate student motivation techniques and determine methods that could work well in their online courses. \n*Implement strategies for addressing student wellness in online classes\, such as brief check-ins and normalizing help seeking\, in ways that reduce anxiety and foster a greater sense of safety\, belonging and motivation. \n*Create a simple\, sustainable plan for responding to students that outlines how often you will reply\, the tone you will use\, and the length of your communications. \n*Explain how aligning assignments with a clear real world\, workplace\, or community application can significantly increase students’ motivation by helping them see the relevance and value of what they are learning. \nFacilitated By: Lisa Hayward\, AVP for Online Program Administration and Jeff Tunney\, Associate Director\, Center for Teaching & Learning Innovation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease register for this event. When you do\, you will receive an automatic email from the CTLI confirming your registration.
