DESCRIPTION:Session Information\nDate: Monday\, May 15 \nTime: 12pm – 1:30pm PT \nLocation: Zoom (Register for Zoom link) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSession Description\nHow can we leverage AI to support authentic learning while also mitigating potential harm to learning?  This is a national conversation happening across higher education\, and the applications vary across disciplines. When it comes to programming\, there is a lot of potential for supporting student learning-​- ​helping students understand why their code might be incorrect\, interpreting and providing documentation on lines of code\, and improving student code by making it more complex or more streamlined depending on the goal​ — just to name a few examples.​ ​L​ive virtual ​1:1 ​support​ via ChatGPT and other similar tools​ is ​now ​available 24-7 and ​accessible to all students\, regardless of their financial means​.​ In this modern age of AI\, how can we best leverage these new and emerging tools to support all students (in particular\, those who may need extra help)? How do we coach students on how to interact with AI responsibly and in a way that deepens their learning (and does not undermine it)? \nPresenters: \nWilliam Stein\, CEO of SageMath and CoCalc.com will present on CoCalc’s AI tool and data collected on how students engage with that tool.  Sharmila Venugopal\,Assistant Adjunct Professor for Integrative Biology and Physiology will the Life Sciences Core will share her experiences piloting activities that ask students to engage with ChatGPT to compare and contrast their debugging skills with the AI generated responses. \n  \nSession facilitated by:  Jess Gregg\, Senior Associate Director for the Center for Education Innovation and Learning in the Sciences (CEILS).

Her book The Sum of Us: WhatRacism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together spent 10 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and was longlisted for the National Book Award and Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction. The New York Times called it\, “The book that should change how progressives talk about race.” and the Chicago Tribune said\, “Required reading to move thecountry forward…”. It is a Washington Post and TIME Magazine Must-Read Book of 2021.

We chose to take a radical path to inclusive course design by engaging in an authentic and meaningful approach we call a Justice Partnership; our team\, Life Sciences Liberation (‘LS Lib’)\, centers and empowers Black womxn-identifying students. Our process is a pedagogical partnership and is grounded in principles of design justice. Come hear about our process and ongoing work! \nPedagogical partnerships: Instructor-student partnerships that draw on student experiential knowledge to challenge institutional norms & practices\, while also helping them navigate such a system (Cook-Sather et al\, 2020). \nDesign justice: an approach to design that centers marginalized communities and aims explicitly to challenge\, rather than reproduce\, structural inequalities (Costanza-Chock\, 2020). \n\n\n\nFollowing the Ed Talks\, we will be having Happy Hour in the Hershey Hall Front Courtyard at 4pm!

This talk will share findings from a recent national survey\, exploring how the extracurricular nature of many high-impact practices may disproportionately prevent STEM students with disabilities from fully benefiting from these experiences. \nEmma Goodwin Bio: After completing her B.S. in Microbiology\, Immunology\, and Molecular Genetics at UCLA\, Emma worked as a non-student teaching assistant in the MIMG Research Immersion Laboratory courses and was introduced to biology education research through CEILs. These experiences led her to pursue her PhD in Biology Education Research at Portland State University\, and she is currently an NSF Postdoctoral Fellow in STEM Education Research at Arizona State University. \nAbout ED Talks @CEILS: Learning Community Meetings: Join us as we explore the latest high quality STEM Education Research studies and how to implement effective and inclusive teaching. We welcome guest speakers from UCLA and other academic institutions to share their research and lead small group discussions with our teaching and learning community.

With colleagues\, participants in these discussions will spend intentional time on student-centered\, inclusive and equitable\, and anti-racist action strategies that can be implemented in the classroom and laboratory learning environments to work against the impacts of racism. \nFeedback from a recent participant: \n“Before this series\, I would have been hesitant to interrupt a microaggression – due to not knowing if it was a big deal and feeling uncomfortable. Now I realize it’s important to say something\, even if I’m not sure exactly what to say.” and “I plan to mitigate the impacts of racism in higher ed by including historically underrepresented and minority student voices in the planning process for curriculum” \n*Our upcoming workshops are open to instructors\, faculty\, and teaching postdocs who teach courses in the Life and Physical Sciences.  There will be future offerings for graduate students\, dates TBD.* \nRSVP FOR WINTER QUARTER URL:https://wp-misc.lifesci.ucla.edu/ceils-dev/event/conversation-series-becoming-an-anti-racist-educator-3-part-series-begins-jan-27th/ CATEGORIES:CEILS Sponsored,CEILS Workshop END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20220907T093000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20220907T120000 DTSTAMP:20260421T153720 CREATED:20220614T180100Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220629T200939Z UID:1959-1662543000-1662552000@wp-misc.lifesci.ucla.edu SUMMARY:BRUIN LEARN Prep Session for Fall Quarter DESCRIPTION:BRUIN LEARN Prep Session for Fall Quarter\nSeptember 7\, 2022\n9:30am – Noon | Hershey Hall 158\n\nRSVP Today\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin CEILS and UCLA’s Online Teaching and Learning Instructional Designers\, and additional members of the LMS transition team to get specialized support building and designing your course on Bruin Learn — UCLA’s new learning management system (Canvas).
