Celebrating Dr. Geri Jacobs and Instructor Payge Hodapp, recipients of Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Awards for advancing the use of AI in teaching! Jacobs explored intentional AI integration in ENG 132: Writing and Research, focusing on AI literacy, rhetorical analysis, critical thinking and reflection. Hodapp investigated AI in the nontechnical HPF 160: Wellness course, developing custom AI applications to support personal wellness, reflection and behavior change.
Both transformed their classroom innovations into case studies and shared their work with fellow educators. Their research is shaping classrooms and inspiring educators locally and nationwide. Well done! 👏
