Welcome to Think series // Ai
Back for 2026—following the success of the 2025 Think Series and Ignite Resilience.
Think Series // AI is Just a space to experiment, rethink, and maybe surprise yourself. This isn’t about having answers; it’s about testing tools, sparking ideas, and reimagining resilience in work, teaching, and business.
The future isn’t waiting—and neither are we.
Join our hands-on workshop for Appalachian State faculty and staff, culminating in an Ignite Talk—five minutes, twenty auto-advancing slides. Participants share bold ideas at the intersection of AI and human creativity.

Why this series matters
Why this series matters
AI isn’t just about faster emails or quicker slides. The real value comes from second- and third-order thinking: What happens when everyone has this tool? What breaks—or gets reinvented?
That’s why systems thinking matters. Higher ed is an ecosystem, not silos—shift one part and the ripples spread. This series helps you connect those dots and shape how AI lands in your work: not just faster tasks, but smarter systems, resilient practices, and a future-ready vision.
