Facilitators: 
Jordan Holmes, Senior Manager, Teaching, Learning and Technology, CTSI 
Victoria Sheldon, Faculty Liaison Coordinator, Generative AI Pedagogies, CTSI 

This session introduces participants to the key findings and recommendations of the University of Toronto AI Task Force Report’s Teaching and Learning Working Group, highlighting the structural changes emerging across teaching and learning due to generative AI. This report provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how AI is reshaping educational practices and offers evidence-based guidance for U of T’s institutional response.  

Participants will explore current student practices with GenAI, examining both the opportunities it presents for personalized learning and the challenges it raises regarding academic integrity, effortful learning, and course competency development. The session will help instructors reflect on how these changes affect their teaching and will provide practical guidance for aligning course goals and classroom practices with GenAI's evolving role. Participants will also explore how to build AI literacy into their curriculum so that students can use AI tools thoughtfully and responsibly. 

This webinar is Part 1 of the CTSI GenAI Workshop Series: Adapting Teaching and Assessment with Generative AI in Mind.
