For Faculty

We’re also thrilled to announce the launch of our new Faculty Toolkit GenAI Module—a dedicated space designed to support educators in harnessing the power of generative AI in their teaching. This module offers a wealth of tools and resources to help faculty integrate GenAI into the classroom.

Beyond practical applications, the module also addresses critical considerations, including security and misinformation, copyright compliance, and academic integrity. By exploring these topics, educators can confidently navigate the complexities of using AI tools in their own work while determining the extent to which they are comfortable allowing students to use AI. Whether you’re new to GenAI or looking to refine your approach, this module has everything you need to build confidence in using AI in the classroom—for both yourself and your students.
