Collaborating with AI: Practical Approaches for Engineering Instructors (Seminar for Faculty and TAs)

Conference/Seminar

This workshop frames AI as a collaborative partner. It focuses on how faculty can leverage AI to augment their existing skills in teaching, research, and administration, rather than viewing it as a replacement for their professional judgment. This interactive session will provide faculty with insights into the utilization of AI for various purposes, including debates on its ethical application and associated limitations. Given the extensive landscape of AI tools, the workshop will also recommend strategies to narrow down these options to meet your specific requirements. The session will highlight some of AI's limitations and introduce methods to address them. Applications of AI in teaching and learning will be discussed, with some insights shared into the use of AI for research and grant writing.
Requirements for the workshop: Laptop. Please have a research purpose and related research questions for a specific area you would like to explore, preferably a new area of inquiry. If you have a transcript from a Zoom call about a technical discussion, that is optional to bring along.

Enhancing Engineering Students' Problem-Solving through Metacognition and Self-Regulation

Conference/Seminar

Problem-solving in engineering is widely recognized as one of the most challenging skills to teach and learn. Success relies heavily on students’ understanding of the problem-solving task (metacognitive knowledge about tasks) and their ability to self-regulate through monitoring and evaluation strategies. This interactive workshop draws on research with undergraduate engineering and mathematics students, which identified seven distinct learning episodes that illustrate the interplay between task understanding, self-regulation, and performance. The workshop consists of two complementary parts. The first part, “Understanding the Problem-Solving Task,” invites participants to explore these seven learning episodes, reflect on student approaches, and identify instructional strategies tailored to each scenario. The second part, “Designing Instructional Strategies for Adaptive Problem- Solving,” focuses on hands-on application, engaging attendees in activities and case discussions to develop and refine instructional practices that enhance metacognitive awareness and self-regulation. Participants will leave with both a research-informed conceptual framework and practical tools.
