Artificial Intelligence (AI) Resources

With the rapid advance of Artificial Intelligence (AI), higher education institutions must engage in thoughtful discussion about AI’s impact on teaching, learning, curriculum, research, careers, and the broader societal implications. We have developed this page of resources, organized by themes, to keep our faculty and staff informed about AI. Because AI tools and news about AI are rapidly evolving, this site will be reviewed and updated regularly. (last updated 10/04/23)

Artificial Intelligence 101: Self-Paced Workshop

Designed with higher education faculty in mind, this self-paced workshop introduces the fundamental concepts of Artificial Intelligence (AI), making it a straightforward yet enriching journey into the world of modern technology.

The three interactive modules of this self-paced workshop will prepare users for further conversation and exploration of AI by simplifying terminology, getting acquainted with popular tools through hands-on activities, exploring common characteristics of generative AI, and providing a glimpse into the current trends and developments. Participants will reflect on how to successfully utilize AI by fostering an environment where they can visualize the potential implications and benefits of AI integration in higher education.  To enroll in this workshop, email tlpro@cmich.edu for access.
