Please join us for a live panel discussion! In this session, panelists will discuss some of the opportunities and challenges associated with the use of AI in higher education. From teaching, writing, and research to critical AI literacy and ethical considerations, there are many issues to explore. After panelists present their opening remarks, we will invite our audience members to share their questions, comments, and ideas.
