Teaching with AI

Generative AI is reshaping teaching, learning, assessment, research, and creativity. At Texas Tech University, faculty are engaging with this technology in diverse and evolving ways. The TLPDC’s Division of AI Pedagogy and Policy is constantly developing new resources and support for faculty, including workshops.

You can find more resources related to AI and pedagogy on the TLPDC’s Teaching with AI webpage.

If you’d like one-on-one support, please feel free to reach out to Lisa Low, Director of the Division of AI Pedagogy and Policy.

    Generative AI is changing how students approach coursework and challenging traditional approaches to teaching and assessment. This 90 minute workshop will explore practical strategies for designing AI resistant assignments, developing rubrics that encourage authentic student work, and rethinking how faculty measure achievement of learning outcomes when traditional assignments and assessments can be completed using AI. Participants will also consider how clear expectations, ongoing conversations and a culture of trust can encourage responsible AI use while supporting meaningful student learning.
