CoTL 2025

Generative AI tools have had an astonishingly quick impact on the ways we learn, work, think, and create. It is now clear that AI competencies and literacies must be embraced as essential learning for most colleges and universities. Drawing from my new book, Teaching with AI: A Practical Guide to a New Era of Human Learning (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2024), I will detail the challenges and opportunities that have emerged for higher education, especially in terms of pedagogical practice and student learning.

We are on the cusp of a technological revolution that will fundamentally reshape how we learn, work, and interact with the world. Increasingly intelligent digital tools are no longer just assisting us—they are augmenting our cognitive and creative abilities in profound ways. In this talk, I will explore the transformative impact of these technologies on education and the evolving workforce. Through personal insights, historical parallels, and examples from the cutting edge of research, this session will challenge educators and researchers to reflect upon their roles and embrace new opportunities to shape the future.
