The School of Human Development and Organizational Studies in Education (HDOSE) is proud to announce accomplishments by its faculty in the area of artificial intelligence (AI). These achievements underscore the school’s commitment to integrating cutting-edge technology into educational practices and research.
Dr. Tuuli Robinson, Clinical Assistant Professor of Educational Leadership, has been named a recipient of an Artificial Intelligence badge by the Center for Teaching Excellence. These prestigious badges are awarded to faculty members who attend a series of workshops and professional developments. The AI workshops focus on discovering innovative ways to use AI to support student learning.
“I believe there is a widespread excitement about the potential of AI to revolutionize education,” said Dr. Robinson. “The workshops offered by CTE create an excellent platform for learning and collaboration right here at UF, making AI implementation highly relevant to our work.”
In addition, Dr. Jennifer Kent, Visiting Clinical Assistant Professor in Educational Leadership and Policy, and Dr. David Miller, Professor in Research and Evaluation Methodology, have both completed the AI2 Learning Academy and Micro-Credential. They are now affiliated faculty for the AI2, a testament to their dedication to advancing AI in education.
“I am grateful that UF has demonstrated a commitment to our faculty becoming AI literate and empowers us to be leaders in this space” said Dr. Kent. “With what I’ve learned from the AI2 Center, I empower my graduate students in EL&P to pursue innovative learning that impacts their K-12 settings fostering more future-ready schools.”
Dr. Miller added, “Understanding and using AI has become a necessary set of skills in research and teaching in higher education. The AI2 Center provides an important venue for faculty to continue to develop and keep up-to-date on AI. I found their workshops on using AI to support student learning and teaching to be an excellent start in incorporating more AI into my teaching.”
The Director of the School of Human Development and Organizational Studies in Education, Dr. Corinne Manley, also expressed enthusiasm for these advancements. “We are facing unprecedented times in education with the growth of AI,” said the Director. “I’m so thankful for all the ways that UF is supporting our faculty in leading the way in this new world of AI and education!”
