Congratulations to the recipients of the Provost’s Office 2026–27 Teaching Innovation with Generative AI Grants!
More than 30 proposals were submitted by faculty pairs proposing projects around student AI literacy and for improvements in student learning. AI innovations could include AI-supported writing, research, or design assignments, simulations or case studies, discipline-specific AI uses, ethical use considerations, as well as student-facing materials to build AI literacy or disciplinary knowledge and skills.
Each of the following faculty will receive a $2,000 stipend for work on their project this academic year. We look forward to learning more about their work at the August Teaching & Learning Collaborative.
