Ideas for Teaching with AI—Please Contribute!
Lesson Plan for Discussing AI — Lisa Rourke
- Discussion. Student experiences with AI: what they use in our class and others; what works well, what doesn't. How generative AI is distinguished from AI. The ethical concerns about AI, focusing on unreliable content, privacy violations, and copyright infringement. Limitations of AI: reliability, critical thinking). Importance of checking with instructors about using AI (including Lex) in their classes
- Exercise: (1) Use the "ask Lex" feature to brainstorm research topics using questions generated by students. One goal is for students to note that the more refined the questions get, the better the output. (2) Work with Lex individually to brainstorm their own topics and share them and their process in small groups before reporting out to the class.

The Lens Unit
The lens essay is a 6- to 7-page assignment in which students are asked to apply a theoretical "lens" text to a primary text; they do this in order to interpret or "re-see" the primary text in a new light and to arrive at new insights that they wouldn't otherwise have come to.

Comparative Genre Analysis (CGA)
The Comparative Genre Analysis (CGA) unit asks students to compare writing styles in 3-4 articles from different genres to identify – and understand the reasons for – commonalities and differences between the disciplines. This prepares students to read scholarship in multiple disciplines and teaches them to be aware of their own stylistic and formal writing choices.

Research: Assignment Sequences; Working with Sources
The 10- to 12-page research essay builds on the lens essay as it asks students to use multiple lenses and engage in close reading to make an original argument. As the first part of the research process, students prepare a research proposal (graded on completion) that includes their assessment of the literature on the topic, their proposed methodology, an annotated bibliography, and a weekly timeline.

First-Year Experience: Critical Conversations and Experiential Learning
As part of the Brandeis Core, the First Year Experience includes activities that provide UWS students foundational experiences in the intellectual life of the University.
Critical Conversations
Critical Conversations are public discussions on a key theme featuring two or more faculty from different disciplines and a third faculty moderator. They are intended to build first year cohort identity and introduce students to Brandeis’ intellectual and scholarly discourse. UWS students are required to attend at least one or view a recording of the event, and they are usually provided with a prompt to write a brief response essay.
