Hello, Humber teachers.

There is an online module that is now available for your use. This educational module, Introduction to Generative Artificial Intelligence (genAI) for Instructors, was made possible through the collaborative work of faculty, staff, and leaders from the Faculty of Health Sciences and Wellness, Faculty of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Student Success and Engagement, Educational Support and Digital Innovations, and Innovative Learning. 

Throughout this module, you will learn about some of the basics and foundations of generative artificial intelligence text-generating applications and how all of this plays a part in your role as an instructor.

To access the module go to visit the webpage and enter the password: genai_humber

Please consider completing the research survey (REB-0351) that is found at the start of the module. This survey will take about 10 minutes to complete.

If you have questions about the module or research you may contact Jennie Miron at jennie.miron@humber.ca.

The Digital Student Experience (DSX) Program emerged from the 2023-2026 Digital Campus and Academic Plans and focuses on enhancing the digital student experience.  

The DSX Program is comprised of three initiatives that will integrate and support each other in delivering on the promise of simplifying and personalizing the Humber student journey from prospect to alumni.  

Digital Identity (DI) 

Digital Identity (DI) is a single online Humber identity where you are known, have a sense of being welcomed, valued and secure in every seamless interaction. 

Digital Identity builds a profile that retains the user’s identity preferences, delivers a unique personalized experience and makes them feel valued at each step. DI includes: 

• One single identity through your entire Humber journey 
• Access automatically evolves with roles 
• Single, universal and evolving profile that is consistently available across all your applications you use 

Learn more about Digital Identity at the DSX Program Showcase on March 4, 2024.

Humber College receives many packages every day and our Mailroom teams at both North and Lakeshore campuses work hard to deliver them as soon as they can. However, over time, we do end up with several packages that remain unclaimed. As such, our teams will now adhere to the below procedure:

1. For any packages for students addressed to the College or student residence, every effort will be exhausted to deliver them to the correct addressee. Should the student move out and/or no longer be a Humber/GH student, any packages (mostly from Amazon.ca) will be discarded after six months of delivery/receiving. Amazon packages return cannot be initiated by Humber Mailroom staff, but rather by a person who made the purchase.
2. For any packages addressed to Humber/GH staff, admin, or faculty member that have not been picked up, the Mailroom staff will advise the Associate Director of their department via email informing them that a package from someone in their department has not been picked up. If the respective staff, admin, and/or faculty have not picked up their package in six months, they will be disposed of.
3. Any unclaimed packages that arrived for Humber contractors will be flagged to contactor's contact person, if known. Unclaimed packages for project contractors will be flagged to Humber Project Manager, if known. Any packages still unclaimed after six months, will be discarded.
4. Any other packages that have no names and have not been picked up in six months, will be disposed of.

Should you have any questions regarding this policy, please do not hesitate to reach out to Roman Fuzak, Manager, Custodial & Maintenance Services at roman.fuzak@humber.ca.

Thank you.
