Conference at a Glance

Students are already using AI, often in ways we don't detect. Faculty report uncertainty about how to respond. Rather than approaching this challenge through policing and detection, Human Connections in a Digital World will explore how different disciplines are redesigning learning to make human thinking visible and valued.  

Human Connections in a Digital World is a new peer-led symposium that brings together speakers from across the university’s disciplines to discuss how humans remain central to our academic work and beyond as generative AI increasingly transforms the world. Sessions will focus on pedagogy, student learning and faculty development instead of promoting specific AI tools.

This event is a partnership between the Delphi Center and the Learning Commons, including REACH, the University Writing Center, University Libraries and the Digital Media Suite.
