Making Teaching Materials More Accessible
A 75-minute hands-on clinic for Columbia faculty, postdocs, and graduate students
This session will consider approaches to using AI to help create accessible, engaging, and relatable materials for students who may not have much experience with a course's subject area. Participants in this clinic will get hands-on experience interacting with AI agents designed for this, and consider modifications that would be desirable for teaching in their own discipline. This is one of six Teaching with AI Clinics being offered this week.
No preparation or experience with AI necessary. Registrants are encouraged to bring a laptop or tablet, if possible, so they can try out and play with this model for using AI with students.
About Teaching with AI Clinics
Teaching with AI Clinics are an opportunity for Columbia instructors to learn about, experiment with, and discuss applications of AI to drive learning and engagement. The clinics feature models developed by 2024-25 Teaching with AI Fellows at CTL, in consultation with faculty and CTL learning designers.
Clinics are not sequential, and we invite interested instructors to register for any and all clinics that interest them. To facilitate access, six clinics are being run in 212 Butler Library across two weeks. Browse and access registration links for other Teaching with AI Clinics on CTL's website.
