During the Winter 2025 Reading Week, Innovative Learning is hosting the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Institute for Humber faculty. 

Dates: March 3, 4 & 5, 2025 
Time: 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. 
Location: North Campus 

The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Institute is a collaborative professional learning opportunity for the Humber community, focusing on exploration and understanding of Artificial Intelligence, especially Generative AI (GenAI), in higher education. Participants will engage with each other to highlight the fundamental concepts, capabilities, and limitations of GenAI in teaching and learning, along with its implications for employability, assessment, and ethical considerations. The AI Institute will provide practical strategies for effectively integrating AI tools into teaching practices while fostering cross-disciplinary conversations to share differing perspectives, knowledge and resources. Attendees will also create learning tasks that demonstrate the application of GenAI, translating their knowledge into actionable strategies for their professional practice.  

Participants who complete all three days of the AI Institute will be able to: 

1. Identify and describe the fundamental concepts, capabilities, and limitations of Generative AI, including its underlying technologies, and its potential impact on higher education. 
2. Explore and analyze the employability, assessment, ethical considerations, and practical applications of Generative AI in higher education. 
3. Identify how to integrate AI tools effectively into one's teaching and learning practices. 
4. Engage in cross-disciplinary conversations to share knowledge, resources, and ideas on the advancement of AI use in education. 
5. Critically evaluate ethical issues surrounding AI use across Humber with a focus on ensuring equitable and responsible AI practices. 
6. Utilize AI tools to design inclusive and flexible learning environments, applying Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles to remove barriers and support diverse learners in their academic success. 
7. Create a learning task that incorporates GenAI to demonstrate its application in teaching and learning.
