Colleagues and Students -
For the next two FST seminars, we have Robert Vavala and Krista Croghan from the Center for Transformative Teaching giving a workshop on AI Use by Undergraduate Students (Thu, Oct 9th) and Responsible AI Use by Instructors (Thu, Oct 16th). These workshops are sure to help students and instructors learn about new teaching methods and AI tools.
Here's a July 2025 article from The Chronicle of Higher Education on How Are Students Really Using AI?<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.chronicle.com/article/how-are-studen... > that may be of interest and provide additional context ahead of the workshop. Interestingly, here's an October 2025 article from NPR on Research, Curriculum and Grading: New Data Sheds Light on How Professors Are using AI.<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.npr.org/2025/10/02/nx-s1-5550365/col... >
This is a timely topic and let's thank Dr. Kurt Piepenbrink for organizing this workshop for the Department.
Friendly reminder: FST Seminars are held on Thursdays, 12:00 - 12:50 pm, Room 277 Food Innovation Center. Come early (~11:30 am) for coffee and snacks to meet/greet our speakers and graduate students.
