AI Fundamentals Course

NLU is partnering with Auburn University to offer an expansive introduction to Artificial Intelligence and its impact on higher education. The course has an online, self-paced, asynchronous format. The asynchronous discussions built into the course will connect you with faculty from across the nation. NLU's Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence (CTLE) will also host synchronous meetings over the span of three months for NLU faculty to discuss course topics and their implications on NLU's students and faculty.

NLU's student focus groups highlighted students' desire for their faculty to understand and guide students regarding responsible AI use. Engagement with this course will empower NLU faculty to stay abreast of developments in AI and its potential impact on their courses.
