When AI reshapes how we teach and learn, institutions don't just face technical transitions, they face human ones. Drawing on grief theory, change management research, and real-world implementation experience from the University of Florida, this session offers faculty, instructional designers, and administrators a practical framework for navigating the human side of technological evolution. Presenters will explore acknowledgment, community, and agency as antidotes to resistance and uncertainty, leaving attendees with actionable strategies to lead their institutions through technological evolution with empathy and purpose.
