UMBC’s DoIT and Faculty Development Center will hold a “study day” panel 12-1pm on Wednesday, May 14, to explore how generative AI systems can help students prepare for exams. Three UMBC faculty members will show and tell how and why they are exploring the use of GenAI tools in formative assessment of student learning.

Panelists and use cases include Sarah Bass (Chemistry), who will discuss the use of Google NotebookLM for Chem 101 tutorials and virtual assistance, Tim Finin (CSEE) on effective exploration of questions from old exams, and John Schumacher (ANTH/SOCY) use of AI to generate case studies and assess student analyses of them. Each panelist will have 5-10 minutes to briefly describe how AI could be or was used to efficiently and effectively assess student formative practice, related issues and opportunities, and the next steps.
