Research shows that metacognition (“thinking about one’s own thinking”) plays a powerful role in students' ability to direct their own learning. The introduction of Generative AI to the university setting has created new teaching challenges, as instructors how and whether GenAI should be incorporated into their courses. In this hands-on workshop, participants will experience and discuss a student-centered task that they can use in their classes to make students more aware of how they process course information when using GenAI. This task can be used in any discipline to develop students’ metacognition, with the goal of making them more critical, self-regulated users of GenAI, thus decreasing inappropriate use of GenAI in favor of more thoughtful, learning-centered, self-regulatory behavior. Facilitated by Dr. Patricia Turner (CEE).
