Workshop: “AI-Proof or AI-Ready: Crafting Resilient Assignments”

Dr. Doug Young, one of the 2025-2026 Meredith Professor Faculty Fellows, and Teaching Professor of Medical and Chemical Engineering, will facilitate a hands-on studio for faculty to redesign one of their own assignments to better align with course learning outcomes. Using evidence-based frameworks and best practices, participants will explore how AI may be used or misused by students and develop strategies that preserve both rigor and creativity. Through guided activities such as role play, redesign challenges, and collaborative feedback, faculty will identify vulnerabilities and reimagine tasks that emphasize authentic learning. Each participant will leave with an AI-ready assessment draft and contribute to a shared library of models for the CTLE community. We will be offering two sessions of this workshop: one in-person and one via Zoom.
