Themed Workshop Request: Generative AI

The University of Toronto recognizes the transformative potential of generative AI in higher education and is committed to supporting its responsible integration into teaching and learning practices. To support this strategic priority, the Centre for Teaching Support & Innovation (CTSI) is offering a series of workshops designed to equip educators with the knowledge and skills needed to address generative AI capabilities and to responsibly incorporate their use into teaching practices. Together, these sessions will guide participants to explore practical applications of AI in education, reimagine learning outcomes and assessments, and gain hands-on experience with Microsoft Copilot, all while fostering a critical examination of the role of AI literacy across teaching contexts. 

This introductory workshop will explore how educators can leverage generative AI thoughtfully in teaching and learning contexts. Participants will gain hands-on experience with Microsoft Copilot, learn effective prompting strategies, and explore ways to redesign assessments in light of AI availability.This introductory workshop will explore how educators can leverage generative AI thoughtfully in teaching and learning contexts. Participants will gain hands-on experience with Microsoft Copilot, learn effective prompting strategies, and explore ways to redesign assessments in light of AI availability.

This interactive workshop will invite participants to collectively reimagine course-level learning outcomes, so that they measure distinctive human skills and emphasize the knowledge and skills that will support students to thrive in an AI-connected world.

This hands-on workshop will focus on translating reimagined learning outcomes into practical, AI-aware assessments. Educators will work explore how to revise and develop assessments that not only acknowledge the presence of AI tools but may also leverage them to support student learning.

This workshop will explore how educators can leverage Microsoft Copilot for teaching and learning, covering its basic functionalities and features. Participants will gain hands-on experience with the tool, learn effective prompting strategies, and discover ways to integrate Copilot into active learning experiences.This workshop will explore how educators can leverage Microsoft Copilot for teaching and learning, covering its basic functionalities and features.
