This is an example of a presentation that library offers for generative AI tools overview, ideas for use, and ethical concerns.
This is a working definition developed by The University of Calgary Libraries
"Being “AI literate” is the ability to understand, use, and reflect critically on AI applications without necessarily being able to create and develop AI models like someone with a computer science background. Understanding how to use AI as a tool to enhance your work is how you become AI literate. Within education, it can be used as a tool to enhance your learning and, like all tools, needs to be used in an ethical and responsible way."
Two of our instruction librarians have received a microcredential from Educause for Teaching with Artificial Intelligence. If you have questions about offering generative-AI literacy instruction or integrating generative-AI tools into your course, please reach out!
Information contained on this website is educational in nature and does not represent the generative-AI use policies for the entirety of The University of Tulsa. If you have questions about using generative-AI tools for your course work or in your department, McFarlin encourages you to reach out to your professors or department chairs and request their generative-AI or AI policies.
