Generated by Copilot. Prompt: Create a cinematic, photorealistic image of a healthcare professional — a nurse or physician — reviewing patient data on a screen while making a thoughtful, human judgment. The screen shows data visualizations or charts. The professional is clearly in charge, engaged, and thinking critically. The setting is a modern clinical environment. Style: professional, warm lighting, realistic. No robots, no AI text overlays, no futuristic gadgets. The human is the center of the image. square format
This is the biggest and most discipline-specific question. No one can answer it for you. But I can give you the provocation.
What do students need to graduate able to do — in a world where AI can do decent, basic work?
Employers won't hire a human if AI can do the work. But they will hire someone who can work with AI to do better than AI. That distinction matters enormously for how we think about what we're preparing students for.
The north star for Q1: How do we equip students to do better than AI — using AI?
Explore the data for your discipline:
One question to sit with: What is one skill in your discipline that AI genuinely cannot replicate?
Generated by Copilot. Prompt: Create a thoughtful, conceptual image that visually represents the tension between interference and support in learning. Show two paths or forces converging on a central point — one that creates friction or obstacle, one that clears the way. The mood should be contemplative and academic, not dramatic. Style: clean, minimalist illustration with warm muted tones. No text, no people, no robots, no technology devices. square composition.

Before setting any AI policy in your course — test the tools yourself first. Educators cannot make informed decisions about AI in their courses until they know what it can and cannot do.
"How does AI interfere with — and support — learning objectives?" — Dr. Christopher Richmann, Assistant Director, Academy for Teaching & Learning
Both. Interfere and support. Not one or the other. That's the question to carry into every assignment and assessment you design.
