Developing AI Literacy in Students in Academic Advising
As generative AI tools like ChatGPT become increasingly available, students need not only technical familiarity but also a critical understanding of how these tools shape thinking, creativity, and scholarship. As educators, academic advisers must be prepared to support students' AI literacy. In this workshop, Logan Harvey, instructional consultant/research faculty in the Schreyer Institute for Teaching Excellence, will discuss AI literacy within higher education using Penn State's AI Literacy Framework and discuss strategies for talking about AI concepts in academic advising.
