Teaching and Learning Community

The field of generative AI continues to evolve and provide both opportunities and challenges for teaching and learning.

Upcoming session: Communicating with students about AI

November 4, 1 - 2:30pm (online)

As generative AI continues to shape the teaching and learning landscape, clear communication with students is an increasingly important consideration. Recent large-scale surveys, like the DEC Global Survey, suggest that students are looking to their instructors for guidance and clarity about expectations for AI use in their courses.

Join us for a conversation with instructors who will share how they address AI at the start of term, develop course outline statements, and facilitate productive discussions with students. Hear what colleagues are trying, what they’ve learned along the way, and ideas you can adapt for your own courses.

Take part to: 

  • Get ideas for designing gen AI tools into your assessment tasks.
  • Learn how other McGill instructors are managing gen AI in their classrooms.
  • Find inspiration for using gen AI as part of your teaching practice.
  • Explore the latest research on gen AI and pedagogy.
  • Share ideas with colleagues. 

Membership

Available to all McGill instructors on a continuous basis. While we aim to foster community and continuity, participants can join at any time, and it is not necessary to attend all meetings throughout the academic year.  

Meetings

  • One hour approximately twice per term (held online).
  • Each meeting will include a presentation component and a group discussion component.

Find more opportunities to learn and share about teaching and learning topics with colleagues from across the University.

Note: There are no McGill policies or guidelines that require or recommend that instructors use generative AI. TAP provides resources and support to instructors seeking to integrate generative AI into their teaching practices, but we recommend that any use or non-use of these tools align with course learning outcomes.
