The AI-Assisted Educator: A Course Design Sprint
9-12 Friday, January 16, 2026 at UMBC in ILSB room 116a
Need a nudge to refresh your spring courses? Curious about how Generative AI tools might help spark new ideas in the classroom? UMBC's Faculty Development Center is holding a hands-on, in-person workshop to revisit basic course design principles while exploring practical ways to use Gen AI to sharpen your course objectives, brainstorm assessments, reexamine learning materials/activities, and streamline class prep—while grounding in your own academic voice and creativity.
Bring your laptop and course materials to walk away with fresh inspiration and actionable strategies for the spring semester. Join John Schumacher (USM GenAI Pedagogy Fellow & SAPH) and Kerrie Kephart (FDC) for this three-hour session on Friday, January 16 from 9am to 12pm in ILSB room 116a.
