Many students are already using AI, but use does not equal readiness. In this practical session, Dr. Misha Kouzeh will share classroom-tested strategies that help students move beyond prompting and begin using AI with judgment, curiosity, integrity, and purpose. Drawing from her work as a USC Annenberg faculty member and Google Higher Education Faculty AI Fellow, she will show how instructors can design experiential learning activities that strengthen student voice, critical thinking, communication, and career readiness. Participants will leave with adaptable reflection prompts, AI evaluation activities, and assignment ideas they can use right away.
