Putting AI to Work for Policies and Assignments
RegisterSee how students in Dr. Jeff MIlls' Quantitative Analysis class are teaming up with AI to crunch numbers, build code, and make sense of data! In this session Dr. Mills will spotlight creative ways his students use Gemini and Google Colab for Python projects—where the bots help, but the brains still lead. Come for the demos, stay for the “wait, AI can do that?” moments.
Beyond the Roll Call: Creative Attendance Strategies
RegisterThink attendance is just about ticking boxes? Think again! In this lively session, we’ll explore creative and effective ways to track student engagement—whether it’s through Google Forms, exit tickets, myCourses quizzes, or good old-fashioned participation.

Refresh Your Lecture Delivery Style
RegisterThis 50-minute, discussion-based workshop invites faculty to reflect on their current lecture approach and share ways to foster stronger clarity, presence, and student connection. Together, we will explore simple techniques that can make lecture delivery more engaging and impactful in the classroom.
Are They Getting It? Check Understanding with In-Video Quizzing using Panopto
RegisterDo you ever wonder if students are really engaging with your video lectures? Panopto's in-video quizzing feature is a useful tool to turn passive viewing into active learning and find out what your students know in real time.
In this focused session, you will learn the complete workflow to check for understanding:
- Build: Add multiple question types (like True/False, Multiple Choice, Multiple Select, and Fill In the Blank) directly into your Panopto video timeline.
- Configure: Set quiz options to provide immediate feedback, allow retakes, or prevent students from skipping ahead.
- Assess: Access and analyze student responses to quickly identify common points of confusion and inform your teaching.
You'll leave this session ready to build your first quiz and gain valuable insights into your students' learning.
Redesign Your Course with AI in Mind
RegisterThis three-part, discussion-based workshop series will help you redesign parts of your course with AI in mind. Together, we will explore when and how to incorporate AI, when to limit it, and how to help students use it responsibly. Across the sessions, you will begin to shape a revised course outline that reflects intentional, thoughtful integration of AI in teaching and learning.
