Teaching and Learning with AI Conference

Students thrive when they encounter faculty with varied perspectives on AI—some who integrate it deeply, others who design AI-resilient assignments. Drawing on Connecticut College's AI@Conn Initiative, this session explores how navigating these differences cultivates metacognitive flexibility, adaptive expertise, and intellectual agency. Rather than seeking institutional uniformity, we argue that pedagogical diversity prepares students to work across professional contexts where AI adoption varies widely. Participants will gain strategies for supporting faculty across the AI spectrum and tools for helping students understand the reasoning behind different approaches.
