Date: Friday, September 19, 2025

Time: 9:30 AM – 12:00 PM

Location: ZSR Library, Faculty Commons Classroom 665 (6th floor, Wilson Wing, inside the Faculty Commons Suite)

Workshop Description:

Throughout 2025, media outlets such as the New York Times and the New Yorker have published tell-all accounts of college students who outsource reading and writing assignments to AI, as well as professors who use AI tools to create course materials and grade student work. These provocative articles, while informative, stoke distrust between students and instructors. It is time to have a different kind of conversation about AI, one that centers our reality at Wake Forest and is driven by curiosity and a desire to understand our students’ experiences as pioneers in an educational landscape being remade by generative AI. 

In this workshop, participants will: 

  • Interact with a panel of students as they reflect on the pressures, dilemmas, temptations, frustrations, and opportunities of being a student in the age of AI
  • Engage in small-group consultations with students, colleagues, and the staff of the Center for the Advancement of Teaching, addressing difficulties related to AI that they are navigating in their teaching
  • Leave with a more nuanced understanding of what students need and want from their instructors in order to thrive in this new environment
