Project Outcomes

This project pioneers a methodological framework to systematically integrate AI within course curricula and assess the impact of such AI-integration on AI literacies of students and faculty, student performance on associated assessments, and the learning and teaching experiences of student-faculty partners as they engage in pedagogical partnerships to refine and assess the AI-integration, in diverse course contexts and disciplines.

Development of a mobile device application that features AI-driven conversation support to promote culturally competent communication between healthcare providers and Spanish-speaking patients with Limited English Proficiency (LEP), offering new solutions to pervasive communication challenges across the health professions and innovative pedagogical approaches to language learning in specific professional domains.

Spanning four SUNY campuses, this project will revolutionize education by developing AI-powered toolsets in Computer Vision (CV) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), applying these tools to enhance teaching across multiple disciplines, and creating Open Educational Resources (OER) to share these advancements, thereby fostering an interactive and personalized learning environment.

This yearlong faculty development program is designed to help 50 STEM faculty across SUNY make their courses/teaching more inclusive by using AI tools and gamification, making course content more diverse, classroom discourse more invitational, activities/assignments more collaborative, and assessment more equitable for diverse talents and applications of science.

Leveraging Open Educational Resources, our project seeks to transform composition education, significantly reducing costs and fostering a dynamic, inclusive learning environment, all while providing a blueprint for faculty to enrich curriculum and pedagogy, encapsulated in a strategic, evidence-based framework for educational excellence.
