- 5:30 PM1hDeveloping Student AI Fluencies in your class: prompt engineeringHow should we engage students on the matter of generative AI and learning in our courses? Examples from Yee, Uttich, Main & Giltner's AI Hacks for Educators will be shared, with an opportunity to practice with different generative AI tools. Session One will go over teaching the CAPTURE method for prompt engineering, with opportunities for hands-on practice. This session is suitable for participants with minimal experience using generative AI but will be most useful if you know how to access either Microsoft CoPilot through your UConn Microsoft 365 login, or ChatGPT (both the free "mini" and paid versions will be demonstrated). Detection of AI use will not be the focus of these sessions, but we may discuss AI-resistant activities and assignments.  You are encouraged to contribute your questions, ideas, and experiences.   If you are interested in continuing to explore "AI fluencies," consider registering for these upcoming sessions:February 4: Teaching critical assessment and analysis of GenAI output February 11: Creating personas for in-class role play activities & prompting AI to play the role of a tutor February 18: Creating visual representations of data February 25: Overview, recap, review, and sharing by participants ('open mic') Register - https://fins.uconn.edu/secure_inst/workshops/workshop_view.php?ser=3342 (https://fins.uconn.edu/secure_inst/workshops/workshop_view.php?ser=3342)
