Since the advent of ChatGPT two years ago, library teaching and learning staff have stepped up to support the academic community to navigate an ever-growing range of GenAI tools safely and efficiently. Earlier this year, librarians at Concordia University and McGill University teamed up to produce a series of foundational micromodules on Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) specifically designed for faculty – GenAI Quickstart: Foundations for Faculty. These unbranded modules are available under an open CC BY licence, allowing other institutions to integrate them into their own websites and/or learning management systems.
This CARL webinar will feature collaborators Dianne Cmor and Megan Fitzgibbons (Concordia Library), and Katherine Hanz and Sandy Hervieux (McGill Libraries), in conversation with Janice Kung (University of Alberta Library and CARL VPO for AI and Library Services). The panelists will introduce this new resource and discuss how the project came to be and its potential impact. The panelists will also explore how the modules can be adapted locally as well as the potential development of similar, shared resources by teaching and learning staff, relating to AI and beyond.
Everyone is welcome to attend; the session will be of particular interest to teaching and learning staff.
