AI for Student Success: A Practical Approach and Lessons Learned from a Smaller Institution

Tuesday, October 28, 2025 | 9:45AM–10:30AM CT | EDUCAUSE Commons, Enterprise Central, Poster Area
Session Type: Poster Session
Delivery Format: Poster
AI—and especially Agentic AI, which can plan, reason, and act independently—is opening new possibilities for how we engage and support students. This session explores how a smaller institution is using readily available AI tools to create services that engage, empower, and meet students where they are. By building on existing data environments and staff expertise, we’re developing AI-driven solutions that are practical, scalable, and aligned with real student needs. Whether you're just beginning to explore generative AI or actively expanding your institution’s capabilities, you'll leave with concrete examples, lessons learned, and a framework for thoughtful, student-centered innovation—no matter the size of your institution.
