Faculty & Researcher Workshops: AI Tools, Teaching Equity, Data Literacy, & More

The Academic Commons (AC) will host workshops to support faculty and researchers throughout the fall semester. From the instructional design team, who help with the classroom experience, to the Office for Professional Writing, Publishing, and Communication (OPWPC), who give manuscript feedback, and the various support services in our libraries, the AC is here to help! 

Themes for the Fall 2024 workshops include AI in the classroom, data and research literacy, the syllabus and first day of classes, manuscript writing and publishing, and classroom activities and teaching styles. Faculty can browse our complete calendar and register for sessions.
