FLC Overview
The Center for Instructional Technology and Training and the Center for Teaching Excellence are sponsoring a faculty learning community tilted “Harnessing AI for Teaching & Learning.” This Faculty Learning Community, or FLC, collectively explores the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) for teaching and learning. In the fall, members of this FLC will hear from many guest speakers and participate in a series of active learning workshops to apply AI within a diverse range of educational contexts. In the spring, members will develop or revise course content with AI in mind, leveraging the new opportunities created by AI tools. The FLC will collaborate on Research in Teaching & Learning (RiTL) projects that will be shared with the wider UF community at the semi-annual symposiums.
