The Center for Innovation in Teaching & Learning (CITL) is hosting generative artificial intelligence (AI) events at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Throughout the AI series at CITL faculty and staff will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on workshops, guest talks, and conversations on how GenAI impacts the future of education and beyond.Make sure you subscribe to the AI newsletter to stay informed about all things Generative AI.
In this session, presenters will make an argument for teaching students about the limitations of GenAI tools rather than simply telling them not to use it. They will provide examples of how to integrate critical AI literacy into a variety of classes, including training on AI course policies, reflecting on ethical quandaries, and exercises using large language models.
