Breakout Session
Delivery Format:
Presentation/Panel Session
As generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) becomes more integrated into academic life, a gap persists between widespread student use and cautious faculty adoption. This session, led by the instructional design team at Indiana University School of Public Health-Bloomington (SPH-B), explores faculty readiness through empirical evidence, applied pedagogy, and inclusive instructional design strategies. Expressing and experiencing AI usage and research and institutional data, the SPH-B team maps a continuum of faculty attitudes—from skepticism powered by academic integrity concerns to emerging enthusiasm for GenAI as a tool for feedback, adaptive learning, and curriculum design. Using SPH-developed faculty training modules, student surveys, and classroom interventions, the presentation shares how ethical transparency, pedagogical redesign, and GenAI literacy training can bridge the readiness gap. The session includes practical applications from an SPH-B course where students complete GenAI statements, learn to differentiate between AI-generated and original content, and are assessed on reflective writing grounded in course materials and GenAI literacy. The presentation concludes by examining the challenges of “disembodied voice,” AI hallucinations, and privacy risks—issues that SPH-B addresses through instructional frameworks and AI citation practices.
