Generative AI tools like Microsoft Copilot and CSU GPT are rapidly becoming part of many instructors’ workflows—but meaningful impact comes from how we design with them, not just how we prompt them. This interactive Zoom workshop is designed for entry- and mid-level AI users who are ready to move beyond experimentation toward intentional, pedagogically grounded use. Participants will work hands-on with Copilot prompts and CSU GPT agents to explore high-impact tools and strategies that support learning without outsourcing instructor judgment. Faculty will leave with actionable prompts, adaptable agent templates, and design principles they can immediately apply in their own courses.
