U449·SUNDAY WORKSHOP: Next‑Gen Teaching: Harnessing AI in Course Design
Workshop Technological and Engineering Literacy/Philosophy of Engineering Division (TELPhE)
Sun. June 21, 2026 1:00 PM to 3:30 PM
W-209DE, Charlotte Convention Center
Session Description

Free ticketed event
This hands-on workshop shows how to integrate generative AI into course design, assessment,
and feedback—without surrendering pedagogy to tooling. Using an “Intro to AI tools” example
chosen via live poll, participants will co‑create a module that foregrounds AI literacy and
responsibility. We’ll generate draft labs, build large, refreshable item banks, and design
process‑oriented assessments that emphasize reasoning, sourcing, and reflection. We’ll focus
on platform‑agnostic methods—prompt templates for evidence tracing, structured rubrics, and
audit trails—and demonstrate the same patterns in an integrated environment for speed,
consistency and scale. Finally, we’ll configure AI assistants that provide scaffolded hints and
critiques with guardrails (e.g., disclose sources, limit code autocompletion, require reasoning
steps). All attendees receive a reproducible checklist and a starter pack they can integrate with
their own LMS or adapt to their own platform. Free Instructor Codio accounts are
pre‑provisioned to minimize setup time. (No platform purchase is required.)
