As generative AI becomes widely available to students, faculty across disciplines face a common challenge: how to use AI to support learning without turning it into an answer engine that replaces student thinking. This interactive session presents a practical instructional framework that positions AI as a cognitive partner to support student planning, monitoring, and reflection during problem solving. Using a hands-on coding workshop as a concrete example, participants will examine structured AI prompting strategies, “explain-first” guardrails, and guided exploration techniques that preserve student ownership of reasoning. Attendees will leave with transferable design patterns they can adapt to their own courses, regardless of discipline or modality.#TeachWithAI #Metacognition #FacultyDevelopment
