Bots, Not Slop: How a Custom Bot Helps Students Revise, Reflect, and Improve
Thursday June 11, 2026 3:40pm - 4:10pm EDT
Suwannee 3
This session offers a fast, practical look at building custom student-facing bots that support real learning instead of producing “slop.” Using CapBot (a bot for my Capstone course that provides more general feedback and help with assignments) and CapBot PA (a bot that provides research paper assistance using my rubrics and APA guidelines), I’ll demo how rubric-aligned coaching, structured prompts, and strategic refusals guide students through revision, self-checking, and reflection while keeping the work theirs. I’ll also share how I designed the bots to support competence, autonomy, and relatedness, so students feel more capable, more in control, and more engaged with the course.#rubric-aligned feedback #custom bot #self-determination theory

Beyond “Is It Right?”: Teaching Students to Evaluate AI Output with Purpose
Friday June 12, 2026 9:40am - 10:10am EDT
Suwannee 3
Generative AI produces fluent and persuasive output that can obscure factual errors, bias, and misalignment with academic expectations. This session introduces two complementary, classroom-tested strategies for teaching students how to evaluate AI-generated content with purpose rather than relying on surface-level correctness checks. Drawing on an AI Output Evaluation Worksheet and the Triple-R strategy (Read, Relevance, Represent), participants will explore practical methods for embedding accuracy, relevance, ethical reflection, and accountability into assignments so students critically assess AI output before incorporating it into their academic work.

AI Use, Ethical Decision-Making, and the Open-Ended Case Method: Promises and Perils
Friday June 12, 2026 10:20am - 10:50am EDT
Suwannee 3
If the principal learning objective of a business ethics class is to enhance student ethical decision-making capabilities, how do AI platforms (e.g. ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok) both aid and hinder the achievement of this goal?   This session examines the promises and pitfalls around using AI software in a case discussion where the open-ended inquiry method is utilized. Using an example, while AI software greatly aids the information gathering and distillation process necessary for decision-making, it lacks any tangible sensitivity for what information matters, as well as a sensibility for the “right decision.”  Solutions are proposed to address this issue.KEYWORDS:  open ended case analysis, ethical decision-making

AI Hallucinations, Academic Integrity, and Learning-Centered Design
Friday June 12, 2026 2:20pm - 2:50pm EDT
Suwannee 3
As generative AI becomes embedded in higher education, AI hallucinations—plausible but unsupported outputs—pose a growing threat to academic integrity and student learning. This session examines how hallucinations manifest in academic work and why higher education is uniquely vulnerable to fluent but inaccurate AI-generated content. Emphasizing prevention over surveillance, the presentation explores strategies for grounding AI use in verified sources, requiring transparent uncertainty and citation practices, and maintaining human oversight in academic workflows. The session concludes by reframing academic integrity for AI-rich environments, arguing that the goal is not an AI-free classroom but a learning-centered one grounded in accuracy, verification, and intellectual responsibility.

Beyond Knowledge Transmission: Centering the Learner with Fink's Taxonomy
Friday June 12, 2026 3:00pm - 3:30pm EDT
Suwannee 3
GenAI makes knowledge freely accessible, rendering knowledge transmission-focused education obsolete. To remain relevant, higher education must orient toward whole-person development where students "actively engage in creating an experience unique and worthwhile" (Watkins, 2025). But how do we design for this? This session presents a replicable process using Fink’s (2013) Taxonomy of Significant Learning—a framework for designing learning objectives that relate knowledge to the learner and includes learning domains such as application, human connection, and self-discovery. Participants will gain actionable steps for curriculum adaptation that center learner agency, ensuring programs remain relevant for college students in the age of genAI.

The Adventure Option: Transforming STEM Activities with AI, Creativity, and a Dash of Chaos
Friday June 12, 2026 3:40pm - 4:10pm EDT
Suwannee 3
What if STEM assessments felt less like chores and more like adventures? In this session, we share the playful, challenging, and deeply authentic activities we’ve built by blending engaging project-based learning with AI-embracing creativity. Students navigate escape-room lab practicals, co-author scientific storyworlds, participate in peer-reviewed demonstrations, and design artifacts that connect experiments across the semester. Faculty, meanwhile, use AI to prototype rubrics, brainstorm twists, and refine prompts. The result: assessments that students actually want to complete and that reveal what they truly understand. Do you accept this challenge? Embrace the chaos with us!

Leaning In Carefully: Designing Experiential Assignments That Use AI Without Undermining Learning
Saturday June 13, 2026 9:00am - 9:30am EDT
Suwannee 3
As AI tools become increasingly accessible to students, many instructors struggle to integrate them without weakening learning, assessment, or professional judgment. This session introduces a practice-based framework for leaning in carefully to AI use in experiential college courses. Drawing on implemented assignments from Organizational Behavior and Human Resources courses, the session presents five design principles: purpose alignment, cognitive engagement, professional judgment, ethical visibility, and assessment transparency. Together, these principles help instructors embed AI into coursework while preserving learning integrity. Participants will leave with transferable assignment design strategies applicable across disciplines.Keywords: AI Pedagogy, Assessment Design, Faculty Development

Plagiarism and Academic Integrity 101 in the Age of AI
Saturday June 13, 2026 9:40am - 10:10am EDT
Suwannee 3
Students are using ChatGPT and other AI writers to brainstorm, outline, draft, paraphrase, and polish, often without knowing where academic integrity lines are. In this 30-minute session, we will walk through an AI-assisted writing workflow and flag which uses are low-risk, which should be disclosed or cited, and which cross into plagiarism or misconduct. Participants will leave with an “Is this OK?” checklist, sample disclosure language, and quick assignment strategies that reduce confusion. #AcademicIntegrity #Plagiarism #GenerativeAI

Generative AI Prompt Engineering as a Tool for Multilingual Learner Writing and Teacher Planning in the K-12 Classroom
Saturday June 13, 2026 10:20am - 10:50am EDT
Suwannee 3
This presentation explores the use of generative technologies such as Claude.AI and Chat GPT 5 to enhance writing planning and drafting as a tool for highschoolers, focusing on 10th grade pre-IB English. Given the writing demands the IB-HL English courses require, students struggle with structure, critical analysis, and citation formats. Through prompt engineering, students learned to craft targeted inputs while developing awareness of plagiarism boundaries. Teachers can upload rubrics to create graphic organizers, structure websites with multimodal components, reducing workload and learner diversity. Participants will receive a prompt engineering framework, academic integrity guidelines, and ELA scaffolds adaptable for varied levels. Keywords: Generative AI, prompt engineering, academic integrity
