FCLI
Teaching Innovation Sandbox
New Fall Sandbox Sessions 

The Faculty Center for Learning Innovation (FCLI) invites you to join your colleagues to investigate ways you can implement Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) into your curriculum. This Teaching with AI Sandbox Series will provide an interactive space where you can participate in hands-on activities with your colleagues, guided by a knowledgeable facilitator.

Sandbox Goals: 

1. Facilitate an open-ended, open-format dialogue based on your ideas, questions, and concerns about implementing AI in your courses.

2. Explore a variety of AI tools to help you accomplish your course objectives through faculty-designed exploratory activities.

3. Reinvent your teaching for maximum student engagement, learning, and future career success.

4. Collaboratively brainstorm and design new assignments and authentic assessments to prepare your students for an AI-driven workforce. 

5. Receive feedback and instructional design consultation from your colleagues.

Benefits: A community of practice with dynamic discussions and collaborative brainstorming to encourage deeper connections with your faculty colleagues.

AI Exploratory Activities: 

These activities were designed by Austin Community College (ACC) faculty to complement the book ‘Teaching with AI’ by José Antonio Bowen and C. Edward Watson. While the book is available for all ACC faculty, you don't need to read the book to participate. The activities linked below can be completed independently, or the series facilitators can provide step-by-step assistance and discussion in our AI Sandbox.
