AI in Teaching Symposium

​We're excited to invite you to a transformative event exclusively for DePaul University's educators, looking to integrate artificial intelligence strategically and pragmatically into academic activities that promote student learning and enhance critical thinking skills.

​The AI in Teaching Symposiums are opportunities for DePaul faculty and staff to share and see how their colleagues have successfully utilized an AI activity or assignment into their teaching. Quick, simple, direct demonstrations that can be easily adopted in other courses at the university.
