UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Teaching and Learning with Technology at Penn State is enrolling faculty and staff until Sept. 30 in the Provost Endorsement Program: AI-Enhanced Pedagogy, which will be held during the fall 2025 semester. Participants will explore and integrate generative AI technologies into their teaching practices.
To complete the endorsement program, participants must attend seven internal Penn State events related to generative AI in instruction during the fall 2025 semester. Events will vary between in person and online options. Events will be offered by experts from Teaching and Learning with Technology, Commonwealth Campus instructional designers, the University Libraries, and the Schreyer Institute for Teaching Excellence.
Additionally, participants will use Canvas to submit a revised assignment, an insights post, and a philosophy video to receive individualized feedback from the endorsement program leads.
The goals of this endorsement program are to support the discovery of generative AI teaching and learning opportunities as a University-wide community and to support the tailoring of GenAI uses to enhance student skills development.
By completing this endorsement program, participants will:
- Identify teaching and/or learning opportunities for equity, ethical practices or disciplinary skills afforded by generative AI technologies.
- Explore and use at least three generative AI tools.
- Review and revise a course or teaching approach with generative AI to support student success.
- Create a video of an instructional philosophy with generative AI that could be given to students.
Faculty and staff can find more information and enroll on the AI-Enhanced Pedagogy webpage.
