This poster demonstrates how generative AI can support both learners and educators through accessible, practice-driven design. Using Playlab and Chat GPT as platforms, several apps were created to provide students with interactive feedback and scaffolded learning in large courses. Faculty tools were also created to enance reflection, productivity and innovation in professional development. Together, these tools reveal a practical, adaptable pathway for integrating AI ethically and creatively into teaching, learning, and faculty growth, and its applicability to diverse disciplines and institutional settings.

This project evaluated a proprietary vision and voice AI math tutor, built on Google's Gemini model and Polya's heuristic framework, for effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction. The iPad app provides real-time tutoring as students write and speak. The study involved an expert analysis and interviews with 13 high school algebra students. Findings showed the AI was effective at guiding self-correction and highly efficient. However, students reported mixed satisfaction, praising its "cool" factor but finding the Socratic style too slow when simple procedural hints were preferred.#visionAI #voiceAI #mathTutoring

Graduate students often struggle to sustain momentum during thesis and dissertation writing. This session shares findings from an IRB-approved study of master’s and doctoral students using Grammarly for Education, examining how and why they used AI tools and how their perceptions evolved over time. In addition to study results, the session highlights a three-day graduate writing workshop that intentionally integrated AI into thesis and dissertation support, offering a practical model for using AI-assisted tools to promote progress, confidence, and degree completion. #GraduateWritingSupport #AIWritingTools #DegreeCompletion

This project strengthened existing STEM programs at Lincoln University by providing training in cutting-edge technologies, development of new courses and labs, novel research internship opportunities, and a minor program in bioinformatics. The AI tools leveraged and topics examined expanded over the years, from genomics, adding Python programing and robotics, then to metabolomics database screening. 39 students have declared a minor in bioinformatics, all of whom have now had research experiences in the field and taken these new classes. The program maintains growth as it has become institutionalized and research collaborations with other universities continue every summer.
