In September 2025, the CTE had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Mustafa Akben, Elon University Director of AI Integration. Dr. Akben developed a couple of apps for Xavier colleagues and others. Here are the websites and tools he created. Per Dr. Akben, please feel free to share them and experiment as you wish.

AI Pedagogy Day Recordings

, Leslie Whitford, Digital Initiatives Librarian

This session is a primer for artificial intelligence in higher education. We explore the impact of generative AI on information management and creation, covering key topics such as definitions and distinctions between AI technologies, practical AI applications in education, ethical considerations, and critical thinking in AI use. Engage in interactive discussions using Copilot on integrating AI into teaching and research practices. (This description was created with assistance from Copilot)

, Eric Bucher, Mathematics (CTE Faculty Director)

, Lauren Angelone, Science Education and Instructional Technology

Explore how generative AI tools like ChatGPT, MagicSchool, and Copilot can support lesson planning and activity design in higher education. In this interactive session, we examine real examples, discuss the importance of AI literacy and pedagogical judgment, and provide hands-on time for participants to experiment with creating AI-assisted materials for their own courses.
