Campus Events and Initiatives听

There are countless in-person and virtual events promoting the responsible adoption of AI on campus. Here is a short list of opportunities to get involved so check back here often for events such as AI showcases, workshops and recordings of those events. If you have an upcoming campus AI event, complete our AI contact form to have your event added below!听

There is a great need to think about how generative artificial intelligence (AI) integrates with and impacts teaching and learning in higher education.

The Center for Teaching & Learning (CTL) and Continuing Education (CE) each host their own AI Literacy Ambassador programs to bring together educators from colleges across campus and teaching modalities that represent diverse disciplines and who are moderately experienced to advanced thinkers around teaching, learning and AI. Cohort mentors and participants will:

  • Explore how departments, instructors, and students interact with, respond to, and accept, ignore, or reject uses of generative AI.
  • Create information sharing support structures (e.g. live cohort sessions, listservs, repositories) for participants to gain key skills and support each other's gen AI investigations and innovations.
  • Support one another in developing a discipline specific innovation associated with gen AI, which can focus on pedagogy and/or instigating related unit level dialogue about gen AI.听

Interested in joining a future cohort at either the CTL or CE cohort? Contact Blair Young, the CTL's innovation catalyst, at byoung@colorado.edu.

The Center for Teaching and Learning invites you to the 3rd annual AI Summer Design Studio on May 7 & 8, 2026. At this year's event, we鈥檒l explore the theme: [Re]Shaping Your AI Narrative. We鈥檒l dive into substantive discussions about the future and consider practical strategies to shape your personal and professional narratives around AI, no matter your feelings on this technology.

Throughout the two days, there will also be dedicated time and support for you to design, build, and refine your own materials or strategy for the classroom.

Due to the hands-on nature of the AI Summer Design Studio, this is primarily an in-person event. in the 2-day event by Friday, April 17, 2026.

The event will open with a keynote and workshop with , Director of Digital Learning at the Center for New Design in Learning and Scholarship (CNDLS) at Georgetown University. 听The keynote, Pedagogy & Purpose: Centering Voice, Identity, and Agency in the Age of AI invites us to consider how we can foreground our core values to define our practice while withstanding pressure to rapidly adapt. Following the keynote address, Molly will deliver a workshop on creating shared agreements and open dialogue with students.

We鈥檒l also feature a talk by 蜜桃传媒破解版下载 very own Nathan Schneider, Associate Professor of Media Studies and Director of MEDLab (Media Economies Design Lab) focused on reclaiming the AI narrative in hyperlocal educational spaces.

Additionally, participants will have a chance to hear directly from students and to partner with student designers throughout the event. This is your chance to integrate the student perspective as you shape the future of learning in your courses and assignments.

If you are unable to attend in person, with Molly Chehak (9:30-10:30 am on May 7) and Nathan Schneider (9:15-10:15 am on May 8).
